Puzzle game

I recently had an idea that I thought might make for a fun little forum game. Here's the idea: I will start by posting a link to an online jigsaw puzzle. If you want to play, you just need to complete the puzzle, then post a reply here with the following:
  • Rate the puzzle on a scale from 1-10
  • Post a link to a new puzzle
  • Let us know whether you think the new puzzle will be harder or easier than the one you just did
Of course you can also feel free to tell us how long it took you to complete the puzzle, what sorts of pics you'd like to see / not like to see, etc.

To get things started, this first puzzle is super easy (and not explicit), but I think it'll be fun to let things progress from there. Making new puzzles is simple. Here's what you do:
  • Find a link to a picture. (To share the puzzle, you need to use a pic that is available online, not one from your PC). As far as I can tell, the site below doesn't restrict content other than to keep it legal.
  • Paste in the pic's URL, choose the number of pieces, and be sure to check the "Mystery puzzle" box. This disables the preview pic and means that we'll have to solve the puzzle to see the picture.
  • If you want, you can use the "Credit line" and "Credit URL" to include a little message and a "reward" link that'll get displayed when the puzzle is solved.
Once you're done, it'll give you a short link to your puzzle that you can share here. Like this:

Excellent! Glad to have someone join in. 8/10 on the pic.

Staying with the b&w theme, but a few more pieces to make it a bit harder:

Previous one is pretty hard but worth to solve it - 8/10

Try this one (sure it is a tough one but with less number of pieces):

The black and white made that a tough one! Only a 6.5/10 for me. Let's put some color back in. (Easy pic/more pieces)

Hot. 7/10. Took me 30 min to solve. :lol:
I think mine is about as hard as the last one.

It wasn't what I expected, but is is a sexy pic! Not too hard, but I do like to be surprised. I'll give it 8/10.

Here's another that should be about that same difficulty...

Took me about 40 min to solve it. 7/10

Here is one from me (about the same difficulty)

Since I've done all previous puzzles, I guess I'll have to give something back :smile:.
I have also one question: Why do you need so long to solve them? I've solved them all in about 14 minutes each :blush: :unsure:

I would rate it 8/10.

Here is another one: https://jigex.com/faLb
Should be about the same difficulty.

7/10

Glad to have some people joining in! Obviously I'm a fan of puzzles, so everything so far has been in the medium-easy range from my perspective. (I also play on a pretty good-sized monitor, which is nice.)

No boring spaces in this one, but a few more pieces to bump up the challenge a little bit.

Nice pic. Less than 15 min. 7/10

Similar piece count but the pic is probably a bit harder

Looks like this is getting a little more explicit. :lol:
23 min. 7/10.

This one should be just as easy.
