> Chris? Puzzle transforms PICT and JPEG image files into electronic
> jigsaw puzzles. The puzzles are based on a unique grid pattern,
> rather than the traditional puzzle structure of square pieces
> embellished with hook & eye joints. The unusual pieces to which that
> grid pattern gives rise make the geometry of the puzzles richer,
> while adding to their overall complexity and challenge. But since
> challenge is one thing and aggravation is another, a few features of
> real puzzles have been omitted ? pieces are never rotated, flipped
> upside down, or still stuck together in little clumps when they are
> dumped out on this virtual table. So all you have to do is find the
> matching pieces and put ?em together.
