Just wanted to let you know that as soon as the computer stops freezing up on me, I will be doing this puzzle :)
seem like every time I try to do a large puzzle on-line things go wacky!
#2: Meg Tayler (rebelcat) on Apr 6, 2008
Glad to know you're going to be trying it, Nancy! Maybe you could print it out? The only two colours are red and black.
#3: Deana L (ffswife) on Apr 8, 2008
THIS IS AMAZING!! I loved this puzzle. Challenging to the end and a great image! Thanks!
#4: Beth (Shasta) on Apr 8, 2008
I finished great fun! (except the part where I accidentally deleted hours of progress!) The whole family is impressed with the picture.
#5: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Apr 10, 2008
when I print it out the numbers are so small I can't see them..anyone have any printing suggestions?
#6: Deana L (FFsWife) on Apr 10, 2008
magnifiying glass? :)
#7: Meg Tayler (rebelcat) on Apr 11, 2008
I think when you click "print preview" you then get an option to click "page set up" which lets you choose your scale. You can then increase the size.

Does that help?

I only do them on the computer but this one I was really wishing my screen was really really really big.
#9: Deana L (FFsWife) on Apr 11, 2008
Had to change my resolution settings on my computer, AND F11 and I still had to scroll... :D
#10: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Apr 12, 2008
Nah - tried that, since it's a pdf file I can't change the page size (that I know of)

Aw, thanks Gypso! :-) I'm glad you liked my puzzle!

Actually, it took *most* of one Sunday to create with me pulling my hair out over how to make him solvable.

And I don't know from personal experience that Ganesh likes Gummi Bears, but I have a friend who assures me it's true. Since she leaves offerings for him on a regular basis, I guess she'd know!

Meg, this is BEAUTIFUL! I peeked at the solution, but I don't think I'll get around to solving it. Huge puzzles feel too much like work! ;p
#18: Merili (merilinnuke) on May 9, 2008
OMG that was huuuge!!! Had to scroll a lot, which was a bit annoying at first, but the final image is totally worth it.
#19: Jan Wolter (jan) on Jun 12, 2008
I don't usually do big puzzles, but this was worth the effort. I clearly need to do some work on the software to make it work better on huge puzzles, like allowing the clues to be moved to the bottom, and making the printing software better about huge puzzles.

The lock-up bug mentioned in response 2 can be avoided by turning error checking off. There is more about that in the FAQ. It really goes back to a fundamental design flaw in the Javascript programming language. I don't really have a way to fix it, but there are a number of workarounds.
#20: Jane Doe (telly) on Aug 17, 2008
Awesome image! Very well done.

I too love gummy bears...actually most gummy things. and if they are sour, even better.
#21: Jota (jota) on Mar 14, 2009
I'm glad I tried this one after Jan allowed us to change the clues from top to bottom. Still VERY challenging but VERY pretty. Thanks.
#22: tj stein (tjstein) on Apr 27, 2009
Absolutely loved solving this puzzle. Quite a challenge but very rewarding!
#23: Martha Valdés (maval) on Sep 20, 2010
This is amazing. Wonderful challenge and very nice image. Thank you!!!
#24: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Dec 31, 2010
excellent detail
#25: Dianne Hamilton (dlh46) on Apr 17, 2012
Gorgeous! Fantastic work of art.
#26: Ivan Parra (taiken) on May 22, 2012
This has to be my favorite one so far. Solvable by logic alone, nice amount of work(scrolling) needed, but the result is just awesome. Good work!
#27: LoloJean (LoloJean) on May 28, 2012
Wow, that is an amazing image. Thanks for the solve!
#28: Vaggelis Kamaris (evag7651) on Jun 26, 2016
nice picture. easy to solve.
#29: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 29, 2016
Ganesh is also the name of the chef at the hotel where I work. :)
#30: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Oct 13, 2016
It sounds as if it would be a great puzzle. It is just too big for me to challenge. I would have to split the puzzle in thirds and that is just too difficult to stay focused.
#31: Leah Drakeford (leah225) on Dec 16, 2016
Nice puzzle, love these big challenging ones!
#32: Julio Parra (Julio Parra) on May 13, 2017
Excelente imagen.

Fácil de resolver.
#33: Cupcakey (Cupcakey) on May 9, 2019
What a magnificent image. This must have taken very long to create! This is the kind of puzzle that made me fall in love with nonograms, and it's the first one of this quality I encountered on this site. I'm looking forward to another one of this size and amazingness. Good job!
