I never saw it until I read the description. I was looking at it all wrong. I saw a partial face (in profile), facing partially down and partially toward the left side of the screen, in front of a black area (a crystal ball or something). She is blowing 2 white bubbles. Can you see that? Very fun to solve. I thought I got stuck once or twice, but then found the one pixel I needed to keep going.
#3: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 2, 2009 [SPOILER]
Well I see it now. Funny how our brains try to make sense out of partial information.

Did I get anyone to start whistling? :-)
#4: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Apr 2, 2009
Not me, because today I am not at work. :-)
#5: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 2, 2009 [SPOILER]
For a moment, I was confused by your comment, wondering why you can't whistle at home, then it sank in. Groannnnn. :-)
#6: Petra Lassen (stjarna) on Apr 2, 2009 [SPOILER]
LOL I'll have to admit I started whisteling EVEN though I'm not at work!

I saw the hair as puckered lips with a reflection on them until I finished the right side.
#8: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 3, 2009
Hey, M2, good to see you!
#9: m2 (mercymercy) on Apr 5, 2009
Thanks Teresa, good to see you too. :)

I just got done listening to an audio-book, "Mirror*Mirror".
Definitely NOT your children's bed-time story. By the way, Teresa, good one.
#11: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 5, 2009
Thanks, Joe. I love to listen to audio books. Did you like that one? You might enjoy this puzzle:

fun. love the silly song...we used to sing it around the piano growing up. :)
#13: Teresa K (fasstar) on Apr 5, 2009 [SPOILER]
Thanks, Telly. That's so cool that you grew up in a sing-a-long family. I used to sing along to the 45s in front of the mirror in my bedroom with a fake microphone. Anybody else do that? LOL
#14: Jane Doe (telly) on Apr 5, 2009
yep...but we didn't have a microphone so I'd use a hairbrush or a spoon. lol

Aww! The links do not work!
#16: Teresa K (fasstar) on Aug 28, 2009
Go check again. I just changed the links so you can listen and remember and smile. :-)
#17: Jota (jota) on Aug 28, 2009
Great, thanks!
#18: Ailsa Hebert (bazette3) on Mar 21, 2010
Cute!! How did you think of that one?? lol
#19: Teresa K (fasstar) on Mar 21, 2010 [SPOILER]
Thanks, Alisa. I started with trying to make a face at angle, looking up. The face looked better with a pucker, but it wasn't solvable. I added a note and a bow in her hair, and she evolved into Snow White. One idea leads to another. And sometimes the smaller simpler puzzles take more complicated planning than people realize.
#20: Diana W (aeris) on Apr 11, 2010
I kept seeing a panda. :) Very cute.
#21: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on May 27, 2010 [SPOILER]
interesting filler, the note :)
#22: Linda Martin (ilovethispuzzle123) on Feb 25, 2011
cute!
#23: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Jan 10, 2012 [SPOILER]
I thought of Lauren Bacall when read the description.

(to Humphrey Bogart) You know how to whistle, don't you Steve? You just pucker up your lips and blow.
#24: Kadou (Kadou) on Sep 23, 2012
OMG! When I saw the title I immediately thought of lips. About half way done, I realized it wasn't that simple. Once completed, I coudn't figure it out except for the note. When I finally saw it, Wow!!!
A fun solving, very good puzzle that got poor ratings probably because players didn't know how to look at the image.
A more detailed description may be useful.
#25: Teresa K (fasstar) on Sep 23, 2012 [SPOILER]
Thanks, Kadou.

Okay, this is Snow White in profile, face tilted up, facing right, with a sweet pure note escaping her puckered lips. She has a white bow in her hair.

This really pops.

I was convinced it was a stick figure driving a lemon until the very end, when *poof* it became a woman whistling!! I love when a figure leaps into focus like that!
