That was pretty tough.

Wow. A terrific idea to use this "right in front of you" in an puzzle. Great.

Very good puzzle. Challenging and thus satisfying to solve!
Thanks!

Great puzzle. Good job with the perspective as well.

Much better the second time around. I think I gave up the first time, but this time I solved it. Tough, but there is always one move that allows you to keep going. Very fun.

Still fun yet again. Nice puzzle.

Forgive if I've said this before but one of the things I love about solving these puzzles is the "Ah ha!" moments. This puzzle had several. The obvious is when one specific area of the puzzle solved for me and I realized what the image was going to be. The several others were when, after staring at the screen for a while, something I'd missed popped out at me and I was able to continue on in a flurry of solving.

Great puzzle. Got it on the first time through but it did take some time.

There's nothing like a good dopamine rush. :-)

Clever...a unique perspective!

Just noticed Jan's comment... I was not talking about the pbn rows, but the keyboard rows in the image. Q is a bit left of being directly above A on a keyboard (U.S. layout at least), but it is to the right of the A in the image.

I stand (er, sit, er, sit and lean over to the right) corrected. More comfortable to sit up straight, though. I'm not sure the Steve Ballmer would like to hear my keyboard referred to as a Commie keyboard (although I generally think of Microsoft's business tactics as being inspired by the KGB).

nice
#21: Jill Tallmer (yidl) on Jul 6, 2016
this took lots of guessing for me, and the effort paid off with this fine image.
#22: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Oct 16, 2020
Very fun solve. A clear, unique image.

Super fun solve, love the little twist (I was thinking of keys for keyholes, of course), loved the comments, great puzz!
