A nice fun easy puzzle.. though I would like it a lot more if it were 10 spaces narrower.. ie cut out all the empty dead space.

I used this one to try the thing where you save when you've finished adding color and all the white spaces fill in automatically.

Congratulations on your first puzzle published at Webpbn Juliana!
It was fun and easy. :)
Thank you!

This was fun. I like easy puzzles because it takes me so long to do large ones. Good job on your first puzzle! Hope to see more.

Ah! All is made clear now. :)

"I'm going to cut your heart out with a spoon!" I watched Robin Hood (The Kevin Costner one ;p) WAY too many times when I was a kid.

Watch out She's dangerous!

Robin Hood, the Kevin Costner one.... as a KID?? Oh geez... I feel old.

Deana-- more late middle schoolish. Is that a kid?

I've been teaching college English for a few years now, and my students never cease to make me feel old (and I'm only 30). Did you know that college freshmen have pretty much had the internet around as long as they can remember and that most of them were born in 1989?

Eh, quasi-kid. :D

Yeah, my youngest is a freshman in college this year... He had his first email address at 6. Hadn't thought about it that way before tho... *sigh* Yep, feeling old!

Computers were brand new when I was a freshman in college and the ones we had didn't have much of a hard drive. You had to save everything to disk or code it in new each time. Paper jacketed 5.25" floppies that didn't even hold a lot of data.

My first computer had a 20 meg hard drive and a 2400 baud modem. I thought I was the king of the world.

"Computers were brand new...hard drive...paper jacketed 5.25" floppies". Dude, that's not when computers were new. You forgot like two decades there, including punched cards, paper tape, mag tape reels and 8" floppies (all of which I have owned and used at various times and I'm no older than you).

The first computer I owned had no hard drive, no modem, and saved data to a audio cassette player with play and record buttons that plugged into the computer through it's microphone and external speaker plugs. That was pretty much the first mass market computer.

You're right! My brother-in-law was/is a computer programer for UC Berkeley (my sister is 10 years older) and used to bring home boxes of punched cards for my brother and I to make things out of. He also worked with ones that had the big mag tape reels.

The computers being new that I was refering to were desktop models, not main frames. I had friends that had models with cassette tapes and 8" floppies. The first ones I used and owned used 5.25 floppies.

I think the first computer I used had the 5.25 floppy disks too. The first time I saw an 8" floppy was last winter when my boss at work happened to show me one.

LMAO!! Oh, that's funny (well to my sick mind it is).

So, do tell. What happened after you saw the 8" floppy?! Details details!
:-P~ LOL

<waits to get cyberslapped>

She rubbed it and it wasn't floppy any more.

<ducking and running>

LOL!

LOL...Definitely not at work!!

I was a college student in the '70s. The first computer I used was a Sigma VII -- it looked like a giant electric typewriter. One could do math problems on it, but little else. I also learned Fortran on an IBM 360 -- which used punch cards. At the time it was considered state of the art. It was obsoleted shortly after I graduated.
