I couldn't "see" the image until the last couple of pixels, and then it was great!

Thanks for the fun.

great puzzle
no guessing

after initial line logic ends all you need to do is use edge logic on the 14 clue in r30 to get 12 dots (c19-30) although you only actually need 9 of them (c22-30)
then line logic solves the rest

the "tricky" or "not so obvious" spots of this remaining line logic are finding the dot in r11c23 which gives you a dot in r12c23 which gives you a black in r12c21
then the computer is smart enough to solve the rest

another approach: i did the edge logic on the bottom row and then edge logic on the right 5 in top row (look two rows deep at times) and the line logic was pretty straight-forward otherwise.

wonderful image!

Cool!

No guessing. Just edge logic on bottom row and on the right 5 on top low, seeing how it works in combination with R2.

Thanks for the puzzle.

I think his real name is "Mr. Moneybags."

It's technically Rich "Uncle" Moneybags.

I figured out the image about half way through but it still took some guessing to finish it. Nicely detailed image. Good memories.
