I got stuck on number 9 as well.

#9 here also. You should be able to skip and get a total correct score.

Bah - I'm stuck on #9 as well.

Does 9 look like it's moving to you or is that just because I'm on drugs... J/K

But it does bug my eyes out like majorly!

Actually, 9 is one of the hardest levels in Round 1. They are not all this hard, so don't get discouraged yet.

The trick to seeing this word is not to try to make letters out of the nuts, unless you want to give yourself a serious migraine.

Hint # 1: Each letter is on an individual nut.
Hint # 2: The word is in a diagonal orientation.
Hint # 3: Every person has a pair of these.

Got to 14 before giving up and going to bed

menace · « **Reply #14 on:** August 26, 2004, 07:47:36 am »

even with hints i couldn't get past #9--each letter is on a nut??? i'm, not seeing any letters on nuts--maybe I'm just nuts

patrickl · « **Reply #15 on:** August 26, 2004, 08:07:38 am »

Geez, was stuck on 5 because my caps was stuck

SirPeale · « **Reply #16 on:** August 26, 2004, 12:23:28 pm »

Finally got #9, thanks for the hint. Couldn't see it until you pointed it out. I *was* trying to make words from the nuts.

ChadTower · « **Reply #17 on:** August 26, 2004, 03:52:11 pm »

Just started, I'm stuck on 14...

EndTwist · « **Reply #18 on:** August 26, 2004, 05:00:19 pm »

maybe i'm just dumb, but i can't get past #5

J_K_M_A_N · « **Reply #19 on:** August 26, 2004, 06:33:26 pm »

Now I am on #14. I ONLY got #9 because I saved the picture and zoomed in to 1600%. GIVE MORE CLUES!

ChadTower · « **Reply #20 on:** August 26, 2004, 07:27:38 pm »

Yep, hours later I'm still on 14... I've tried photoshopping it all kinds of ways.

Hint # 1: It's a 5 letter word.
Hint # 2: The letters are red.
Hint # 3: It's basically what all the people in the photograph are called (as a whole).
Hint # 4: They say 2 is company, and 3 is a .....

Level 14 was one of toughest ones for this round. An Image Editor is needed to see this word.

Hint#1: The word is NOT in the white symbols that border the image.
Hint#2: You can recycle it.
Hint#3: Make these adjustments in PS and the word will jump out at you:
Brightness: +20 Contrast: +80
Hint#4: Joystick knobs (balltops) are made of this.

Menace,
Take a look at the 4th nut from the left on the top row. This is where the first letter is located. Remember the word is in a diagonal orientation and is 9 letters long.

Every person has a pair of these (infact if you didn't, you probably wouldn't be able to see this post).

PS,
If you still cant see the word try adjusting brightness/contrast in PS.

menace · « **Reply #24 on:** August 28, 2004, 08:33:54 am »

thanks for the tips but it was jkman's tip to zoom in to 1600% that helped me ding it--I sort of stopped playing this game once it became apparent that you have to manipulate the picture for things to become visible--#14 for instance--I have a plain black pic with white lettering--if I have to change the contrast and brightness, it doesn't really seem like a puzzle anymore...

Stuck on "Round 1, level 11 of 50.
Word is 5 letters long."
And my key 1093703745-11-1-31046C2653-4CE7390610

crashwg · « **Reply #26 on:** August 28, 2004, 01:00:04 pm »

Here's a preview of what's to come...

This is the one I'm stuck on. It's #27.

crashwg · « **Reply #27 on:** August 28, 2004, 01:13:07 pm »

I think I know where the word is, I just can't figure it out...

Looks kinda like an S, B, B and I but the only word you can make with those letters is BIBS.

This one is very easy. PS is not needed to see this word.

Hint#1: Take a look at the second column from the left (vertical orientation).
Hint#2: The letters are slightly brighter than all the rest.
Hint#3: You can find these on most bicycles.
Hint#4: Some people wear these, as a fashion statement.

Actually, this one was quite easy. I did not need PS to see this one.

Hint#1: A very common name for a dog.
Hint#2: Cal Worthington named his dog this
