Mr. Sandlanders wanted to get into the puzzle act, so I made some puzzles for him to try. They are under my name but in a “private” folder, so hopefully no one else sees them… and his times on them. 🙄

HOLY POOPS! I beat the SandyLander on hack’s Paddles. 😯 I think I should retire now 8)
No, kfh, you can now try to beat my time for Twisted Limbs. 😈 Finally finished that one… :wacko: Kind of like a challenge cache: don’t place one if you haven’t met the challenge yourself. Now I can go after nice puzzles like Hack’s orange golf ball TB. 😀
The first 10% of Twisted Limbs is easy. So is the last 10%. It’s that middle 80% that’s the killer!
When we were kids, we did jigsaw puzzles all the time. There was one awful one of a panting of still life flowers that gave us fits. It gave my mom fits, too. She threw that one out, the only one she ever did that to. I’m thinking that Twisted Limbs might be in that same category…
But then there are those who like a challenge…
Kind of like caching… Do we ever know who everyone else really is?
If you “follow” people who are registered on the puzzle site, you can check out all of the puzzles that those people have made on the site. I am following all of the thread stealers, so they are one click away, plus I get notifications when new puzzles are made by them.
I have no idea who some of the others are who are following me. Groupies? 😉

BBG I use Faststone Image Viewer to resize pictures. It’s free. And it not only is one of the best image viewer/organizers (and my default image viewer for my thousands of pictures), but it does the following:
1. Resizes the people in the pictures so that they appear at least twenty pounds lighter.
I can hardly believe it’s free! Been using it for a few years now.
I have to get this for my photos!!!

Here’s where having a Mac might pay off. 😀
I don’t know what is available for PCs, but I have all of my pics in iPhoto. When I want to use any photos elsewhere, like for cache logs, emails, Facebook… and puzzles… I use my export function, which gives me the option to resize my photos before exporting. Then they show up where I want in a more reasonable size.
And my photos never show up in the forums as too frickin’ huge! :LOL:

from 314rat… aka “pi”rat… aka BBG :pirate:
Forevertron = :like: Makes a nice change from kitties, flowers, cupcakes, and scantily clad female figures. Thanks, BBG.
And I do NOT use the ghost or the photo or any PEDs to get low times. However, I wouldn’t doubt that all of my countless hours at the computer have helped improve my eye-hand coordination. 😉
Don’t forget that deer puzzle from before you were Labrat’s city cousin, BBG… the deer puzzle that may or may not have a deer in it! 😯
Have fun with this one, drivelers! By link only again…

And out of those 300 times, five of the Top 20 fastest players are thread stealers! We rock! :LOL:
Oooooooo! FTP in the puzzle thread. Sweet!
Hack! Your duck puzzle is “featured”! WTG!
:like:
Here’s another puzzle that is found through this link only:

300 piece twisted limbs? Are you serious?
I could have made it a rotated one… 😈
One thing I have learned on this puzzle site: You can just pause a puzzle, then pick it up later. It shows in your “saved games” tab as just where you left off… kind of like you left it on the table overnight. Makes those puzzles with teeny tiny pieces and lots of them a bit easier to finish.
