Well, the two of you shared the 4 puzzles I moved to the Experts today, with all 4 being solved within 5 minutes of me moving them.
Considering the number of hours it takes me to find new puzzles that haven't been posted before, the time it takes from them to be solved is somewhat disproportionate...
I think you'll be a Pro before too long as well, so it might not be so long before it becomes safe to post puzzles again!
The thing is, since this is an Internet-based game I think generally puzzles should be findable on the Internet, but the fact is with modern Search engines etc that makes what should really be hard puzzles quite easy.  I may have to rethink my methods..

Well, the thing is that your puzzles stay a few days/weeks in the Rookie section, which gives us plenty of time to find the answer. Then when it's moved to the Expert section we just have to give the answer we found previously, so the actual research time can be much longer than it seems.

I understand your point but as far as I'm concerned there are many puzzles you post that are totally obscure to me (for instance 3531, 3528, 3508) so don't consider your time wasted !

Yes, the rear window is different.
From the days when they knew what beauty was...
