Awesome puzzle, David. I used as much inner edge logic as I could, and still had to guess, based on where the spots on the ball should be. Really nice image!#7: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Jun 18, 2010 [HINT]
Thanks. There is definitely some inner edge logic needed, but I don't think guessing is required. Column 12 especially if I remember right. I'll rework it again if enough people feel guessing was required?#8: Liz P (Lizteach) on Jun 19, 2010 [HINT] [SPOILER]

Jan: again we need your ruling on the guessing part.#10: bugaboo (bugaboo) on Jun 19, 2010
incredible image and great logical solve#11: Kai-Uwe Zickerick (conzick) on Jun 20, 2010 [SPOILER]
simple edge logic in a couple of places internally was all that i needed
i actually solved the hand last and the ball right before that
one question tho
what is the black dot in row 45 column 12 supposed to be...
the bottom of his ear?

thanks for cool entry, David#14: Jota (jota) on Jun 21, 2010
Jan, Gator please help with solvability.#15: Gator (Gator) on Jun 22, 2010 [HINT]
I used two-way logic around the 2 clue in row 29. This let us dot most of row 28. I also used internal edge logic on the 4 clue in column 12 to dot out R4C12 and R5C12. After some more line logic, I used edge logic again on the 4 clue in column 12 to see that it could not go in R8C12-R11C12.#16: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Jun 22, 2010
I then used two-way logic with the 3 clue in row 5. I doesn't matter if R5C4 or R5C7 finishes out the 3 clue, R7C4 will be black and R7C7 will be a dot.
The rest finishes normally from there.
Found to be logically solvable by Gator.#17: Tom O'Connell (sensei69) on Jun 22, 2010
thx for clearing that up, Gator#18: Jota (jota) on Jun 22, 2010
Thanks a lot Gator.#19: Jane Doe (telly) on Jun 24, 2010

Good image. It would have been more fun to solve if it was set up in landscape mode as opposed to portrait mode.
