Or is it?

Oh Goody ! ... I got your attention.

I am putting together a contest for the near future and I need your help. Part of the contest will be to solve a picture puzzle and I wanted to try it out first to see how it will work and to make any changes if needed.

I have created a puzzle for you to solve. The 'cut pieces' must be set to "44 Piece Tri-Dove"
If not shown, click on 'Change Cut' on the left side, to select "44 Piece Tri-Dove"

"Auto Solve" is NOTto be used ! It has been tested.

Once solved, email your results--- image sample as shown below--- inserted in email message.
I will need some sent via email..(I will post here it was received) and some posted here in this thread.
I will keep this test open till midnight tonight forum time.

Do not send email attachments. Attachments will be opened.

Sample of image I am looking for:
Attention-!-This-Is-A-Test,-This-Is-Not-A-Contest,..
*In my signature line you will see a link titled 'Handmade Crochet Baby Blankets' ,
Open link.....on the bottom of the page you will see the temporary email address to send your results.

Thanks for your help !

CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE PUZZLE

Thanks for your effort guys, But you all fail!
You did not follow instructions. I think I am gonna scratch the contest I was planning.
And then again I just may go ahead and do this puzzle, just for the sake of driving you all bonkers....

So what was it:

1- not much interest in puzzles?
2- no prize was offered. Maybe if a prize was offered more members would have joined?
3- instruction not clear? confusing?
4- image cropping, screen print, insert in email message difficult?

If this was the problem there is a free program called Printkey 2000, I have been using this program for more then 5 years now without any problems. This program will allow you to do the same as described above with less hassle.

I did it in 1:04. Kind of neat actually, but it took a few seconds to figure out what the heck I was doing. I don't normally use a mouse very often, and that's probably what my biggest stumbling block was, LOL.

1:14, and I wasn't trying to be speedy. I like it Mila. Well done. I think you should try this with Coppercoins' 10,000 image poster. Now that would drive people bonkers!!!!!!

Thanks tights!

If he would give me permission to do so, I would. And it wouldn't be an easy one !
Drive you ALL bonkers...you all would probably hate me for it.

Mila,
Just saw this now, it's a neat puzzle, but I'm on line during work and am constantly interrupted by the phone, customers, bosses, and everything else. I tried the puzzle, phone rang, and didn't get back to it. Not going to tell the time.
