An unexpected result - I wasn't sure what to expect, but this is a pleasant surprise. Is there some reason the single squares (I assume these are dashes) are spaced differently? Or just so the puzzle is solvable?

It reminds me of the raised braille letters - except I don't know them.

Glad to see people are trying out my puzzle. After having solved a bunch, thought I would try to make a couple

The morse code part starts at the same column - it doesn't end at the same column because of the unique combo of the dits and dahs associated with each letter

dit = single white square
dah = three white squares

But if it is a code, then it really isn't bilingual. It's just another means of transmitting words in English. The fact that I am illiterate in Morse doesn't mean I don't know the words that are being coded.

Morse Code = Some Decor ? :)

Once again, I have no idea what the final answer is for this puzzle, but the Paint-by-number part of it was fun solving! Thx for your creative, AT!

It's interesting how this puzzle popped up just when Thomas thought he was being original. There have been several Morse Code puzzles. Where's Adam when you need him?

The description to #22824 says, "I saw similar puzzle here, but it's a new one."

Correcting for Engrish, he did state that he'd seen a similar puzzle, which perhaps inspired his series.
