excellent puzzle in both image and solve
thanks for thinking of me bahabro
i loved it

another fabulous image Kurt.:)

glad you liked it, bug! ty very much :)

thanks again Al

I try to spread it around...some hard, some easy, etc. can't go to long before the 20 x's for Tom though, lest he have withdrawal.... lol ;)

good image, not sure why bugaboo needs to put a solution in here when it wasnt really that difficult...

thanks, karl....

but it is necessary. not everyone is the same skill level...over half of the people who attempt this won't be able to solve. and even those who know advanced techniques can miss things from time to time. I seem to remember not too long ago when you wrote that a puzzle needed guessing. it was not only not difficult, but it was even LLS. it helps people, even if you in particular don't need it.

"... not sure why [Karl] needs to [open his mouth] in here when it wasn[']t really that [necessary]..."
LOL

We don't need your brain farts, karl.

@#9 for Swee Pea's sake, huh? lol....

you see how my feeble noodle works though...from your elementary to sherlock to another unrelated pipe smoker and so on. just keeps rambling from one subject to another. til I see something shiny and get distracted, that is. lol ;)

Fantastic puzzle, Kurt. Almost too difficult, but I made it through to the end without having to peek for clues.

thanks Teresa!

Really fun solve and fantastic image. Thanks.

Absolutely fantastic puzzle in all terms! I liked solving it very much.
