[QUOTE=anyrose]  
actually it didn’t - it just had the file name, but whatever. Now I’m stuck on 16 and I think I need sleep. I was going to get a whole buncha stuff done when I got home from work tonight and instead I spent it weff-ing. :shrug: maybe the answer will come to me in a dream  
[/QUOTE]

All right, here it all is in full.

Do not read unless you want both 14 and 15 completly spoiled people.

[spoiler]First you have to check the image properties on level 14. He says the glass was half full, but the image name has pessimist written all over it. So what you need to do is put in the opposite of that so it applies. Optimist. Not in the address bar before .html but rather before .jpg in the photo. This takes you to a page with JUST a photo on it with a word visible: “rawr”. This is the answer you want. You hit back and put in rawr before the .html.

Then, that takes you to level 15, which looks exactly like level 14 did, cept the title bar, instead of reading “what’s in a name?” reads “level 15?” The photo also is different by way of having a new name..the name of a level you already completed. What you want to do here, is take the new word you found (rawr) and match it/put it into the image again (rawr.jpg). This brings up another photo with another word on it (kthxbye). THIS is the word you want to get passed level 15 and to put before .html.

This finally brings you to the much anticipated level 16.

All in all, it’s not hard when you look back at it…just tricky and, well, makes you think a lot. 🙂 [/spoiler]

did I solve level 21 correctly?

I got to 21 by putting into the title what they were spelling. I tried to put the name of the image into the title to get from 21 to 22, but it takes me to a bizarre page - it says 19, but looks like 20.

I are confused.  
…and logging for the night.

\*Damn you **Idle**!!!1!!!eleven!! \*

You’re mine now! Muahahaha.

Hmm, don’t think so. The way to figure out 21 is to find out what goes into the ??? above the middle girl. The number of question marks denotes how many letters is in it and yes, it’s as easy as you’re thinking it is.

Mac users - you’re gonna want to Apple - (minus) if you see overlapped text on 18. It will help. And it’s neat - I never knew how to do that before!

Extra hint for 21:

The girl in the middle is flashing a hand gesture associated with what genre of music?

I made it to untitled document which I believe is level 17. And I can see that in the picture are folders with the names of several levels. There is a highlighed one and I am guessing that that’s the answer, because the one other file name that I did not recognize as a completed level game me a ERROR 404 page. But that highlighted one is completely illegible - do I need to look at the source again? am I on the right track?

I finished batch 1, but the first level of batch 2 (level 30) is a screaming bitch. The forum hints aren’t helping at all.

You don’t need to look at the source. Don’t pay attention to the folders that aren’t easily readable

The highlighted folder is a red herring. You don’t need to look at any sources this time. Scroll up and read my hint about this again. (the one you screamed at).

To add another hint to **Omega** ’s one

It helps if you kept writing down the answers to them so you could go back and look at the names. One of them doesn’t add up.

If something on a picture isn’t readable, don’t worry about it. What doesn’t belong?

19 is driving me crazy - got the first part but don’t know how to see the second. The people on the WR board are saying it’s different for Mac users.

The answer to 19 has already been spoiled in this thread. If you don’t want to go upthread (to one of my posts) and see the answer, try taking off the wordwrap.

Yeah, I had problems with that one too. The file wouldn’t download at all.

So, well, here’s where you can find he answer if you just want to skip it…_shrugs_

It’s on page two of this topic. Dio posted it to me when I couldn’t download the file

ok - off 18 and on 19 (oy! is all I have to say to that transition)

now - I did the changing the font size thing on 19 and I have no clue what I am looking at. I copied them to a blank text file and enlarged them again so I could read them and I feel just blah about.  
Now I am really calling it a night. :sheesh:

18 is a gimme. What’s the most obvious thing you could try? (It’s the first thing I try on almost every level).
