Definitely no need to apologize, JP!  Like Nora said, if too hard, people can change the cut! A challenge is good!!

I feel that I must apologize.  I had no idea that the Timex puzzle was as hard as it seems.  I do not like to post puzzles that take so much time.

It was hard, but you don't need to apologize, jp.  People can change the cut, or work a different puzzle, or "bear with it" - LOL - which is what I finally did after coming close to quitting working on it a couple of times.  It definitely had a "whoa!" effect on me.   I just couldn't let it win.   :D ;D

Here's a Fractal Kaleidoscope.  12:56.  I did the frame first and then started with the middle and worked out.

I did one that I tried in a lot of different cuts but it was too much so I did it in 87 crazy.  it thought it looked like colored yarn.  Remember I can do shapes much better than colors.  8:52

I tried to select a puzzle in the fractals folder to post here but when I copied the url for the cut I selected, it displayed a different cut.   Just thought I would give it a try, but I didn't make much progress in figuring out what I needed to do.  lol..  Jigzone displayed the puzzle in the cut I selected, but when I copied the url for that page into a post here, or in another browser window, it came up in a different cut.  phooey.  lol.   :D ::)

Baz did you upload the picture to your own JigZone?  Also, you have to click share in column next to it, then say it's from your album, then pick the cut and share it again.  THEN you can copy/paste the address when you have the puzzle open.  That help any?  You're trying, that's a great start, it took all of us a bit to figure it out  ;)
