peek at solution solve puzzle
quality: difficulty:
solvability: line & color logic only
Puzzle Description:
This is based on puzzle #23476. It's still a rather trivial solve, but there is a little more thinking involved in the determination of the solution. This is a demonstration of how whitespace improves the challenge of a puzzle compared to the referenced puzzle.

Edge logic might be needed. If you find the line logic difficult, try using edge logic on the blue. Once that is in, line logic the rest of the way is easy.#2: Thomas Genuine (Genuine) on Jan 4, 2014

No. This is a demonstration of foolish puzzle and its maker... :)
It may be that, too, though I detest the use of the word "foolish" applied to the maker. =)#4: Kim (kjh) on Jan 5, 2014
Bryan, I enjoyed the puzzle, thank you. I dislike unkind comments by other uses.#5: Bryan (Cyclone) on Jan 5, 2014
Kim, thank you! And I am guessing you meant "users" there; no worries, I get the feeling Thomas was just kidding a little there. Besides, he didn't call me foolish, just the puzzle. =D#6: Norma Dee (norm0908) on Jan 5, 2014
Thomas doesn't kid. He's just plain rude and enjoys insulting people, so just ignore him and pretend he doesn't exist. And I liked your puzzle.#7: Aldege Cholette (aldege) on Jan 5, 2014
Bryan it's nice that your taking the time to show Austin and others how the use of white space can make a puzzle so much better especially from a solving standpoint. If anyone noticed,I who does not solve puzzles,always tries to avoid fill in areas whenever possible.On my car puzzles especially,this can be a real challenge to get a puzzle solvable.It would be much easier to fill in the car with colour,but it's more enjoyable to make it a better solve.:)#8: Joel Lynn (furface1) on Jan 5, 2014
Ditto #6. I think it's a fine demonstration of the principle. Good job, Bryan.
