Crossword	Date	Comment
Dandelion	31 October 2022, 11:52	Bunny food!
Pumpkin	30 October 2022, 23:18	I really like it. It's quite unique for this subject, excellent colours, and a pleasing result. And very easy but not so easy that it was like paint by numbers; this is great for beginners or for more experienced solvers who want something for those times when you just want a quick and easy solve.
OneEyed OneHorned Flying Purple People Eater	30 October 2022, 9:07	Ah, yes, the double alliteration in PurPLE PeoPLE is wonderful!
Grumpy Cat	30 October 2022, 7:47	You sound really grumpy, 3strikes! And yeah... that grating baby voice...very silly.
Deoxys (normal form)	27 October 2022, 22:39	Thanks. It's nice to get a response from the author!
Spider	27 October 2022, 22:38	I can't either -- I don't know what I was seeing when I made that comment! Maybe I was referring to the puzzles not usually having all eight?? (I'm also wondering, given the comments, if the title was changed? I don't remember this puzzle at all, and I'm confused.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Buddy Holly	26 October 2022, 2:21	Agreed!
Bikini	17 October 2022, 23:04	Maybe I should redo this one and see what happens...
Bikini	17 October 2022, 23:04	If I realize that I've benefited from miscounting, I usually use ALT-Z (so glad somebody mentioned that once) to backtrack to where I made the mistake (which wasn't actually a mistake, but it was...). Then, even though I know what the correct marking is, I don't let myself use it until I figure it out logically. But if I don't realize I made the mistake and don't know I've benefited...
Bird	17 October 2022, 12:57	Hah, hah! I've never seen so many comments on a puzzle. I didn't find this one particularly hard (yes, I started from the bottom, as it's the first area I check out on any puzzle), and I think this is a beautiful picture. Once again Tverianka doesn't disappoint.
Star	17 October 2022, 12:29	So nice that this wasn't symmetrical! Definitely made it more challenging than the typical rendition.
Rabbit	17 October 2022, 12:15	That one looks more fit than the one who adopted me. :)
Bikini	17 October 2022, 9:43	I did! Maybe I cheated by accident, but it worked for me.
Removing T-Shirt	17 October 2022, 9:17	LOL
Removing T-Shirt	14 October 2022, 23:51	Is that a self-portrait?
Deoxys (normal form)	14 October 2022, 3:54	These are lovely puzzles, but I continue to struggle with colours 1 & 6, which I find very hard to distinguish. I don't think I've ever skipped a small puzzle, but I might start skipping these.
Bird	13 October 2022, 0:48	Yup. I know what you mean -- on both counts.
Goat	10 October 2022, 14:59	Sure didn't see that one coming!
Goat	10 October 2022, 14:34	Head and neck, long horns, side view, facing to our left.
Goat	10 October 2022, 14:33	Doesn't look like much when pixelated, but absolutely exquisite when you look at the thumbnail.
Goat	10 October 2022, 14:31	You're kidding!
Snail	10 October 2022, 14:20	One of my favourite artists! At least we have a nice archive of her puzzles to work our way through...
Minimalist Flowerpot	9 October 2022, 1:13	Not at all hard, but nothing obvious, either. Really fun to see how this one came together!
Dinosaur	5 October 2022, 2:05	I love these sorts of puzzles -- easy but not mindless, pleasant and contrasting colours, and a result that may not be a master painting but makes a person smile.
Cyndaquil	4 October 2022, 2:27	That was brutal! Colours 1 and 5 completely stymied me -- several times I thought I found myself in an impossible-to-solve situation until I realized the squares were different colours and I didn't need to leave a space. Colours 2 and 4 also gave me problems. I managed with colours 3 and 9, but I had to look closely. I did a lot of clicking on the squares to test the colours. I usually don't complain, but this one nearly did me in! Took me 17 minutes on a puzzle that would normally take half that (or less).
Cab	3 October 2022, 3:32	https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabriolet_(carriage)
Swing	1 October 2022, 10:01	Ditto! I've run out of new ones today (as I'm guessing you did back in April), and I searched specifically for her work.
Toothbrush	1 October 2022, 6:18	Took me 9 seconds... I'm not that quick with a mouse. A clever little puzzle, even if it doesn't require any brainpower whatsoever.
Egypt	30 September 2022, 11:36	https://the-past.com/feature/nefertiti/
Egypt	30 September 2022, 11:36	The image is clear to me and very original. I like it.
Bee	30 September 2022, 11:11	I see you've been here before me... I think this one deserves all the buzz it's getting. It would be appallin' if people were criticizing it.
Bee	30 September 2022, 11:06	Really pretty!
Pie	29 September 2022, 3:34	Sweeeet! (literally)
The Girl and the Goat	27 September 2022, 5:43	I was certain this was a girl walking a dog. As I finished up, I was thinking it looked more like a goat... Well done, imari!
Dinner	27 September 2022, 2:13	Can I come over?
Magnet	23 September 2022, 4:48	That was easy!
Bunny	22 September 2022, 11:35	Yes!
Bunny	22 September 2022, 11:34	Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!
Hummingbird	22 September 2022, 11:22	I'm so enjoying going back into the archives and completing these colourful, folksy Heinakuu puzzles.
Bird	20 September 2022, 13:02	I was curious whether or not Heinakuu translated into a word (i.e., not just a name), and it is. In Finnish, it means July.
Bird	20 September 2022, 12:59	Stunning! I hope Heinakuu comes back some day...
Here it is	20 September 2022, 12:28	Doesn't seem right to me...
Clown	20 September 2022, 2:04	I wish I had a big giant monitor so that I could truly enjoy a puzzle like this. The puzzle itself is such a delight, but the scrolling kills me.
Leaves	19 September 2022, 12:55	But an Arina puzzle is always worth it. :)
Leaves	19 September 2022, 12:54	I took 24 minutes! But then, with the bigger puzzles, I have to double check everything because I tend to mark squares one line above or below (or left or right) of where they're supposed to be. I just can't track all that well with these old eyes, and the highlighting isn't obvious enough for me.
Bouquet	18 September 2022, 10:15	Interesting to complete and a very pretty result. I hope ORatki returns sometime.
Fountain	17 September 2022, 1:01	What a delight to have him back. :)
Take the candy	17 September 2022, 0:57	Excellent!
Piper Perri Surrounded (meme)	16 September 2022, 11:02	Yup, you gotta know your memes to appreciate this one... (I looked it up.) Kind of a paint-by-numbers puzzle, but it's still fun.
Prisms	16 September 2022, 1:33	Not the usual rainbow!
