Crossword	Date	Comment
Breakfast	3 August 2021, 20:12	good idea. better distinction between the main parts would have improved the final puzzle. the coloring made it boring. I like a little more "umph" to start my day.
Glasses	3 August 2021, 18:11	upon reflection, a little variation would magnify difficulty
Cheese	2 August 2021, 18:45	agree. not the way I like to do them, it become boring.
Electrician	31 July 2021, 21:50	i would say "lineman" as someone that works on the utility grid lines (poled or buried) as compared to an "electrician" that would work on a building/repair project. This from a family that had both.
Spy TF2	27 July 2021, 22:19	except you can just click on a color and follow the pattern here or on any of the other puzzle in this "series" and it is a done deal. not personally impressed with any of them.
Sun	21 July 2021, 16:02	i figured the "shape" from the color key & chart but didn't know until the title popped if it would be the sun or an egg. love it.
Goat	19 July 2021, 18:07	Now I have to go do my yoga
Swan on the background of snow-covered branches	16 July 2021, 17:00	all I see is the head. sorry, not impressed.
Pretty purple flower	13 July 2021, 21:44	I would have said Iris.
Flying fish	13 July 2021, 20:56	I agree with Doirin that it is a little difficult to see the image a little easier in the thumbnail but it fades into the background. Maybe with a "sunset" sky coloration?
Mug of foamy beer	12 July 2021, 20:55	was hard for me to see it, even with the title, or in the thumbnail.
Colourful sailing boat !!	7 July 2021, 20:50	the sorting options often cause this to happen. ie sort by order you are apt to get seasonal puzzles that can look very similar.
Woman picking up apples!	4 July 2021, 23:41	was thinking (american) football player getting ready to hike the ball. pleasantly surprised.
Cheese	1 July 2021, 19:24	it was either that or a piece of pound cake.
Turtle	1 July 2021, 18:27	just translated Peri's comment. That was how I started also. hmm, makes me wonder even more.
Turtle	1 July 2021, 18:23	funny, I had it pegged from the start. intriqued by logic used by others compared to mine and if that had something to do with visual expectation. either way had fun with a good puzzle
Burger	25 June 2021, 17:55	agree it was obvious from the key. draw the outline, hold finger down and color. only excitement came with filling in the top and then clearing the seeds.
Leaf infront of Branch	25 June 2021, 17:27	although the color combination is pleasant, obscure colors with an obscure concept are just annoying, If the colors were more natural I think the end result would have better
Gazebo over the cliff	15 June 2021, 21:25	was expecting "the Child" from the Mandalorian
Iron Man	11 June 2021, 17:51	will agree with swford...it is good for a beginner in its symmetrical simplicity. Otherwise the only challenge is to see how few clicks I can get away with as I hold down the cursor and color.
Suktan	10 June 2021, 15:55	I agree but...I also realize that there is no real way to tell how experienced a designer is. I sometimes suspect especially that in the case with some involved designs it is an effort to learn the technique (not to be confused with the emoji type things) Keep it up.
Shoes	7 June 2021, 15:03	too many colors for the size. it muddies the overall picture.
Snowman	2 June 2021, 19:28	I do appreciate a scenic view in this size range. Thanks
Pansies	31 May 2021, 16:30	i thought iris but will go with pansy
Lips	30 May 2021, 3:21	not impressed at all. more aggrivating than challenging with to many colors for no compelling reason. even finished product was difficult discern at any size. you have done much better.
Morticia Addams	29 May 2021, 19:42	was actually too long for the venue. I want to be able to see the instructions (or at least relavant parts of them) while in the grid.
Butt	29 May 2021, 17:08	not "offended" by the picture per se. however, never a big fan of black outline then hold the button and color. not even a real need to count. disappointed.
Ghostbusters car	17 May 2021, 19:12	true, I could see it as cream well if I tilted my screen but then couldn't see the difference between dk grey and black unless I tilted differently, then couldn't see the cream. wish: one or the other.
Cuctus	14 May 2021, 18:39	two-for-one. I like it better if multiples are tied together somehow rather than blank space across the whole thing. To me, better to do 2 separate puzzles and add more detail. But that's me. The only challenge is desiding where the break in the clues is at which usually isn't that hard.
Flora Reinhold (Layton)	30 April 2021, 21:38	the pixelating the very close colors became a little annoying, although the picture does turn out nice..
Ben Franklin	30 April 2021, 21:07	excellent confidence builder. The excellent defined picture is a great payoff belying the limited skill requirements
Tango (Mega Man)	30 April 2021, 20:00	it trips my mind with a "familiar" shape developing but with wonky colors. Usually it is a "gaming" character. But learning the characters keeps me "cool" when I am talking to the younger set. (beats all the emoji faces).
Owl	30 April 2021, 16:48	reminds me of a stuffy my child had
Bear	30 April 2021, 16:32	sweet. thank you for making the outline brown rather than black
Rose	27 April 2021, 20:27	The picture itself could have held it own without the outlining, maybe be even better. it is lovely in the shading.
Jedi	31 March 2021, 20:37	following the link to the poster I understand the intention, however for the puzzle it doesn't work as well. The character is too small and boxy/undistingushable and the "sword" too long by comparison. Only recognizable to a fan audience...something I am not.
Leaf	23 March 2021, 15:39	it is valid critique, not necessarily meant as a complaint. Translations can often come across harsher than intended.
Viking	4 March 2021, 18:21	gaming viking?
Lizard	4 March 2021, 17:02	not a fan. coloring was too busy for no return.
A carafe of oil	2 March 2021, 21:12	Colors were very difficult but in the end made a picture worthy of the effort
Watermelon	21 February 2021, 23:56	colors and striations are nothing like any I have ever seen. outline, especially at the top, makes it look like it is moldy.
Vessel	21 February 2021, 16:59	for me, outlining tends to lower the difficulty rating and often is unnecessary. it makes the picture feel like something out of a childs coloring book. Still, it is a nice picture with great shading.
Rebus (in Russian)	12 February 2021, 22:45	difficult because it wasn't just a single item or even a "scene" that you can start seeing early. It does show where this art form can progress in its challenges. I salute you. Keep up the wonderful work. note: yes, it might be helpful to know Russian to solve the ultimate puzzle it did not hinder the solving of the crossword itself.
Strawberry	1 February 2021, 20:32	so symmetrical and out-lined also? takes all the fun out of it.
The some bubble wrap "Adventure Time"	31 January 2021, 23:46	quite boring to do. A even with the title seemed pointless in the end.
Heart	23 January 2021, 22:31	its cute in the end, but 1 square doesn't take away the boringness of semmetry.
Pizza	12 January 2021, 21:47	Is that a stray onion I see? ;D
Red XIII (Final Fantasy VII)	11 January 2021, 18:25	i found the constant change of similar colors agravating and made the picture itself appear "muddy". I assume it is a gaming character that I do not know but unlike others that I can at least visualize. sorry.
Lego brick	5 January 2021, 18:50	useful to practice different solving techniques but not exciting to do or inspiring to see. I do wish there was a less negative choice in "picture" assessment, the picture isn't so much awful as it is boring. (though better than the myriad of emoji faces)
Kanji Series — Path	27 December 2020, 20:45	Realizing some of this is possibly cultural but... 1)I see no point to the boarder. In the main body the color scheme is too similar making it aggravating and in final picture boring. Even looking up the title I still don't get the point of the design.
