Found to be logically solvable by Gator.

A good puzzle still in its shell.

thanks all. i don't know the logic-name for one of the puzzle solving tips that i like to show on this one. i'm pretty sure it just falls under the category of line logic, but thought i would ask:

in it's simplest form, when you get a black against a dot in a row that has no "1"s then you can automatically extend that one to the length of the smallest number. sort of a "well, you know it has to be at least three long". can happen even when the dot and black aren't necessarily adjacent, but close enough to a dot to be extended the other direction depending on how big that smallest number is.

It's line logic but more specifically a method called "Glue" on the wikipedia site: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nonogram

Your peanut's rating deserves more than peanuts!

I am learning not to be afraid of line logic. Thanks for pushing me into the comfort zone.
