Simple edge logic on the 4s in the upper right quadrant will help you finish easily.

Both this puzzle and your comments are just a bunch of gibberish.

No problem solving. If there is a message, I don't see it.

I didn't guess it but I enjoyed solving it.

Thanks, Susan.

BlackCat, there is no philosophical message, but there is a point. The same point as in the others in this series - identify the two words represented in the image that are combined to make a new compound word. In this case, the compound word that I hope everyone will guess is "Shipshape." The clues for this one are the sailboat (ship) made out of different shapes. And the shapes in the frame are to help you figure that out. The title is usually related to the answer rather than to the images. In this case, the title is the definition of the compound word. :-)
