I don't like solving the big puzzles online, so I must confess I peeked at the solution and have no comments on solvability. This is one larger puzzle that is not a waste of time. The result is definitely a nice one. I will create a printout version for myself by exporting the clues so that it's at a readable size, then try it that way.

It is very beautiful, but too large for me, and unfortunately for a lot of other people, too as a lot of people now work with smaller screens.

I'm about 2/3 done. The picture is pretty and the solving would have been fun, but I can honestly say that in this case a smaller screen has nothing to do with it. I use a 24-inch screen, and the scrolling is brutal.

1/3 done with the blue, haven't touched the red yet. it is definitely pretty so far but it's more a task of keeping track of where you are in a row than heavy logic.

day 4 of solving this behemoth, and i finally finish. yet the save function stopped working after about 80%, and now it won't recognize the puzzle as complete.

matty, you can manually mark the puzzle as solved if you are having trouble saving the solved image. That should still work. Here is how:

1. Bring up "Find Puzzles".
2. Put the puzzle ID in the first of the two search boxes for that criteria (23500, leave the other blank).
3. Hit "Search".
4. Mouse over the puzzle ID in the "list" (one puzzle obviously) and a box of options will come up.
5. Select "Rate Puzzle" from this list.
6. Click the box to "Mark this puzzle as completed". Optionally, provide a quality and difficulty rating above this box.
7. Click Submit. The puzzle should now be tagged as solved and not appear in new puzzle searches.

I finally slogged through this one, and just finished it. Like Matty, I had trouble with the final save, but fortunately I just had about 5 rows left in the bottom third. When I re-filled in the blues and hit save (there were white spaces left that I hadn't marked), I finally got a successful save.

I use a widescreen monitor, so it all fit on the screen.

It's very pretty, but SO large.

Beautiful, but it took a LONG time to solve.

I love big puzzles, especially if the picture is this beautiful!

Took a ten year break from it. Deep breath, scrolled some more, up and down, left and right, still brutal. Also still pretty. All done.

At least it's a good use of the excessive size! :)
