13:52  Enjoyed this, but I had a hard time making out the small design in top left corner.  Anyone else have this issue with "dense" designs?  It's just too small for me to discern where parts of the design start and stop.  I think it was Nora, or maybe someone else, who suggested letting the puzzle auto-complete to get a larger view of the puzzle, and then open another window to work it.  But that forces me to toggle between two windows while working the puzzle.  I don't seem to have this issue with many of the designs, but  I sure did with this one.  It's a pretty puzzle, but I think I'm getting eyestrain... lol... Any suggestions anyone?  (I'm using a 17-in widescreen monitor and can't afford to go buy a larger one just to work puzzles... LOL)

baz... You can always change the cut to one with bigger pieces... I think we all do that sometimes.   :)

ra - Thanks, but it's not the size of the pieces that I have trouble with... it's being able to see the picture in the upper left corner of what the result is supposed to look like... that upper left corner picture is too small for me to see the detail in the design-rich puzzles.  I'm not having any problem with the puzzle pieces themselves... yet anyway. LOL

Ok Baz, so the picture to the left of where you're working the puzzle is too small.  I never can see those either.  I could maybe try posting the picture besides the puzzle, but you'd still have two tabs.

Example:

Yes, you're right, Nora.  But at least I could see it... LOL... I can't help but think that's too much trouble to go to, especially since I can do it myself.  I should probably just skip the ones I can't see well enough since  I'm doing these for enjoyment, not frustration... LOL.
