Never mind, got it. (I’m an idiot.)
stuck on 15
There is more than one way to solve it. I made horizntal line of most of the green ones and used the lat green one to help manuveur the one vertical blue bar aganst the middle and then pinned it with the rest to hold it in place for the other side to grab hold then ran the last green to touch the rest.

Sorry, I made the same mistake…:smack: In the spoiler I said horizonally but I meant vertically.
They need to be going up and down, and that’s not hard at all. Just use the gap in the middle to help you. First attach the single blue block to the top part of the blue line on the left. THEN put a green block in that middle part and move both the green and blue lines up to the top and all the way over to the left. Then move that green block to the left and up.
Do the same with the second single green block. Viola, full vertical green bar.
Next you move both the blue and green bars together (well, actually they should already be together by this point) and HOOK the top part of the blue bar (that single block you attached) on the gap. Move the green bar down so that it’s on the RIGHT side of the little outcrop on the bottom and this will prevent the blue one from moving down OR back.
And that’s it.

Absolutely brilliant game. I tend to suck at these things, and usually it’s a few dead easy levels and then suddenly a frustratingly difficult one where I get stuck and give up. This game is easy to start with, and keeps sprinkling easy levels, and the difficult ones are difficult but solvable, and it’s constantly challenging but never frustrating.
Until level 67, that is. Bastard.
67 took me a few of playing with it - I “got” what needed to be done, but kept messing up and bumping green blocks together early. :smack: Is it just me, or do they seem to like to follow serious pain in the ass levels with easier ones, like they’re trying to make up for it?
#53 has a simpler solution as well:
[spoiler] No need to create a ‘hook’.
Just get one of the single blue blocks in the outside area. Get it away from the center notch. Use it to hold a red block away from the wall while you put the large blue one in the notch. This gives enough space to move that red block past the blue one to join the reds, and then bring the other single blues out at your leisure.[/spoiler]
I’m up to #54 before taking a break; the toughest one for me so far was #51, since I was convinced I had to brace the wrong side.

If they put all of the really difficult ones together, you’d stop playing.
I’m stuck on 63. Any hints?

It seems to me more like the hard ones follow fairly easy ones, but I do like that they spread out the difficulty instead of making it strictly progressive.
You probably see that the two 3-blocks and the one in the upper left are stuck. There are two ‘free’ 3-blocks (horiz.) and two free 2-blocks (vert.).
Hint describing a solved puzzle :
The upper free block will connect the right stuck block to the center. The lower one connects with the left stuck block. One of the 2-blocks connects the upper right stuck block, and the other fills the gap between the left stuck block and the center square block.
Solution (how to get there) :
Clear the 2-blocks out of their position to the upper and lower edges. Move the 3-blocks out to the left, and brace the lower one.
Move the stuck blocks down one, then slide the upper 3-block over to the right side. Position the center square so that it will connect to the 3-block at the corner, then connect to the right stuck block. This should hold the center square in the center of the puzzle.
Slide the lower 3-block in under the left stuck block, forming a T. Then bring the 2-block up into that gap. Finally, connect the upper right stuck block with the other 2-block.
I guess I just expect progressive difficulty, so it’s unusual for me to have something that gets really difficult in bursts. 63 annoyed the hell out of me; I kept goofing and bumping into the wrong parts and having to back up.
You need to get the horizontal bars out on the left side, then use them with the two short vertical bars to connect the “stuck” bars to the large square on the top right and bottom left.
panamajack, that’s way too easy (re: 53) … don’t you know we like doing things the hard way around here? 
ETA: gogo simulposting!
I’m completely baffled on level 61. No matter what I try I can’t make anything long enough to connect the two small pieces on the top and bottom. HALP!

Nevermind, I figured it out. 62 and 63 were easy. Now I have to go back to work. 
I can’t get past #35. I realize I need to build a column of the blue–and I have, several times–but I can’t seem to do that AND get the green out of the way.
Feel stupid, too. It WAS fun… :eek: :mad: 
I’m stuck on level 61. But I don’t want anyone to tell me how to do it. I’m stubborn like that. I just popped in to thank the OP for the link. It’s kept me entertained for several days now.
Sweet! I know what I’m doing this weekend! I got to 22 and had to stop, but I could play all day. Thanks for the time-suck, ultrafilter.
Got past 35–now I’m stuck on 36 and frankly, the instructions above are somewhat lacking.
Great game, though.
I’m done! All 100 levels.

Stuck on 36. I understand what I have to do, I just can’t get the blocks to cooperate.
Thanks a lot, ultrafilter. Like I needed another timewaster.
I seem to be stuck on 75, I can’t seem to move the blues in the top or bottom chamber to the bottom or top respectively. And clearly one of the blues has o follow a green into a slot while the balance of the blues come behind to lock that blue in place, blocking the path of the green allowing the other green to move to meet it.
