Puzzle Description:

This became much swirlier than I thought it would.

This was pretty fun, and pretty, glad it wasn't bigger though, it would of some pretty funny things to my eyes, thanks :)

I agree! It was very enjoyable, especially considering the size! Thanks!

Not much white space, highly symmetrical, and great fun. There really are no rules about what makes a great puzzle.

Wow. A bunch of highly symmetrical swirls.
#6: Jane Doe (telly) on Jul 8, 2008

A bit too symmetrical, but, like the others said, more fun than you would expect! I was just pleasantly surprized it wasn't one great big swirl!

If you want, I can make "one great big swirl" for you, Arduinna. :-)
#10: Arduinna (arduinna) on Jul 10, 2008
That's ok!!! I've solved a couple of them already!
#11: Adam Nielson (monkey) on Jul 10, 2008
Darn. But I really, really, really, really, REALLY wanted to create a swirl puzzle, just for you. You know how much I "enjoy" them. :-)

Thank you for an interesting smaller puzzle. You always have unusual ones, and they can be tricky, too!

Lol...I'm finally giving up on this one. I'm sure I can solve it, but...it's either my eyes, my computer or a combination of both, but when green numbers, especially 1's and 2's, are adjacent to blue numbers in strings like this, the colors jump...and I always figure out too late to know exactly where I made the mistake so I keep having to start from scratch, which is frustrating since I refuse to "assume symetricality"...lol!

Okokokokokokok...I lied. *sigh* I just couldn't let it go without trying one more time. I'm out on my porch and at this time of early morning the sun isn't on my computer yet so I can distinguish green from blue with less difficulty. Sooooooooo....I did it! WHEW! YaaaaaaaaY!

Thanks, Eric. I didn't use your technique this time, but you can bet I'll give it a try in the future with other puzzles that finally drive me batty!

Usually I don't like so much symmetry, but it was fun in this case, and a fun (abstract) image.
