thanks for entry, tom

This one got a little rough finding the logical spot for the green 8 in r1 but after that it all fell into place. Fun to solve, Tom. Love the shoe.

very nice Tom.:)
#4: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jan 9, 2012
Good, tricky fun!

See puzzle # 2985.

Thanks, Adam. I imagine with over 17,000 puzzles, there is going to be some creative overlap.
#7: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Jan 9, 2012
I completely agree.

That was too hard. I dislike large puzzles. I want them to fit the entire screen, but the pixels and numbers become too small. I finally solved it. The hard part for me were the laces. Some internal edge logic. I much prefer tough 20x20. As I am wasting my time writing and solving puzzles, I am going to the poorhouse.

This was hard ... Thanks for your entry!

Found to be logically solvable by gator.
#11: Gator (gator) on Jan 19, 2012 [HINT]
I used color, edge, and one instance of two-way logic. Fun puzzle!

am I dense???... I see the shoe, but the green thing at the top looks weird. Is it supposed to be laces? I thought that was what the black scar looking thing above the person... fun to solve and definitely tricky. I am going to keep it up on my screen and go away for a while and see if I see it differently in the morning.

Ok, it is the next day and I still don't understand the green "lightning" at the top.

I am doing a series of OS (operating system) puzzles. My operating system is Android, so those are droids.
#14: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Mar 21, 2012 [SPOILER]
I think the green lightning is a tree. :)
#15: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Mar 21, 2012
wow...Kristen really thinks?
#16: Kristen Vognild (Kristen) on Mar 21, 2012
You're just bitter because I ignore your flirting. :)
#17: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Mar 22, 2012
lmbo
#18: Byrdie (byrdie) on Mar 22, 2012
Agree with Kristen, both on the tree and the ignoring.
#19: Tom King (sgusa) on Mar 23, 2012
The upper left is a tree (at least in my small brain).
#20: JUAN PEREZ (mudito) on May 2, 2012
Soluble lógicamente. Buen puzzle.
#21: Tom King (sgusa) on May 2, 2012
Thank you.
#22: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Nov 10, 2016 [HINT]
I agree with GabrielMyCat. If that is lighting, the question then becomes: why?
#23: Velma Warren (Shiro) on May 17, 2019
Tough puzzle. Odd.
#24: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Jan 6, 2022
