I’ve been reading the WeffRiddles forums - searching for a hint. They have lots of hints for IE/Windows users - not a one for Safari on Mac. I’d have gotten past 14 already if I had a Win machine Any Mac users get past 14 (and 15 for that matter)? ---

Okay, for 14… One thing I’ve found in most of these, especially the future ones in the 20s, you want to do everything you can on the page, which includes studying and looking up the image links and properties. He says the glass is half full, but if you look at the image name, you’ll see something is off. Make it how it should be, and you’ll be on track ---

You’re on the right track… Here’s another hint. You need to correct the photo first. Try replacing the photo name with what he means [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/weffriddles-maybe-we-can-help-each-other-out/382170.md?page=4) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/weffriddles-maybe-we-can-help-each-other-out/382170.md?page=6)
