#1: Gator (Gator) on Jul 10, 2009 [HINT]

A little edge logic required towards the end.
#2: Teresa K (fasstar) on Jul 10, 2009
Nice image and fun challenge. I did not need to guess. Good one, Gator!
#3: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Jul 10, 2009 [HINT]
Great small puzzle. No guessing. Edge logic; that's all.
#4: Shae (shaekin) on Jul 10, 2009 [HINT]
This was so much fun to solve for a small puzzle! I used a little smile logic at the top but it took more work than average. Good work!
#5: Robyn Broyles (ginkgo100) on Jul 10, 2009 [HINT]
Very nice! Agreed that edge logic was necessary. I *almost* thought it unsolvable, but I got it in the end with logic alone.
#6: Gator (Gator) on Jul 10, 2009
Thanks Teresa, Adam, Shae, and Robyn.

Nice one Gator! I'm really liking your puzzles. 15x15-30x30 B&W are my favorite.
#8: Agneta (aggge) on Jul 10, 2009
Beautiful! :o)

Found to be logically solvable by jan.
#10: Gator (Gator) on Jul 11, 2009
@elf - Thanks. I may try a color one at some point, but I've done B&W for so long that it will stay B&W for a while. I'm still getting used to solving color logic puzzles.

@Agneta - Thank you too.

Loved it!
#12: Jan Wolter (jan) on Jul 12, 2009
I like solving the small B&W puzzles too. I do every one of those on the site, but only a few of the larger ones.
#13: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jul 12, 2009
I got impatient and did a little educated guessing but I probably could have solved without it. Pretty little puzzle.
#14: Byrdie (byrdie) on Jul 12, 2009 [HINT]
I solved with no guessing. As in #4 a little bit of smile logic at the top. Didn't really use edge logic at all.

Always grit my teeth when I start one of Gator's puzzles because I know they're going to be tough. But I also know I'm going to feel like I accomplished something when it's done. Also kinda of typical for one of his puzzles, I got a slow start, sat there and stared at it for a bit and all of a sudden something fell into place and the rest of it solved rather quickly.

This was a challenging puzzle with a nice picture reward...especially in such a small format.
#16: Jane Doe (telly) on Jul 12, 2009
once again it was so fun and challenging with a rewarding pic at the end. great job. keep 'em coming!
#17: Tonia Bergh (tonia) on Jul 15, 2009
Ditto #14 and #16! Small puzzle, big challenge! Thanks again!

Thanks Diana.
#25: Aurelian Ginkgo (AurelianGinkgo) on Jun 15, 2018 [HINT]
I totally agree with #s 4 and 14. Smile logic works as well as edge logic for this one. Smile is my personal preference over edge, but EL comes up more often. I saw the smile up at the top and the answer fell into place.

This really catches the curve of the neck. Nice.
