this image is ok but the grid is way to big for nothing, plus people here mostly like B&W puzzle more

nothing againts colour puzzle but when it simple B&W often made it more interesting to solve, its less colouring more puzzling

keep on working hard its getting better

I like this one! Nice use of color on a simple puzzle. My vacuum is a constant with a golden retriever in the house!

I like this puzzle. It reminded me of a silly little part of my childhood. I always tried to match the tone of the "hoover" and also to change my tone just a little to make a funny sound in my ears.

When I was unfamiliar with color puzzles I didn't care much for them. Now I like them as well as any, and I'm sure lots of people like them as well as I do. People even ask for more colors to use, so somebody must like them. My primary creative interest is in music, but a lot of the ways of thinking about it apply here as well. There are lots of competent and proficient musicians who create works that become tedious because they tend to become showcases for how competent and proficient they are. There are people who create simple works that are inherently pleasing, to listen to and to recreate. There are people whose joy enhances anything they create or perform, in spite of technical flaws or imperfect performances. No one ever pleases everyone, but, all criticisms to the contrary, there is little genuine suffering from a poor performance except for the disappointed performer who doesn't meet his or her own standards. Everybody has their own preferences, nobody likes everything, and a lot of people don't know what they like until somebody tells them.
I enjoy the puzzles you create and look forward to seeing more of them. I'm sure they're going to keep getting more interesting all the time.
p.s. Don't be afraid of the space, it's your friend.

Wow, David. :-)

Could it be for James Bond's floors, in particular?

Kristen, I don't get it ...?

My comment was going to be "this puzzle sucks - get it?", but I didn't want to give offense ...

I like M2's comment #3. I enjoy that sensation as well. It happens in twin-engine general aviation aircraft; you can always tell when the props are out of sync by that funny not-quite-harmonic feeling/sound in your ears.

I believe Kristen's comment was drawing a connection from the "for your floors only" puzzle title to that of the "For Your Eyes Only" (1981) Bond movie.

Yes, Bill, I get it. *chuckles*

What Yonah said. ^_^
