	Since I basically have everything I currently want on Gaia, I've decided to go questing for something weird... all the artwork on Gaia... you know, the ones that they award to you for jigsaw puzzling. I want to see how long it takes to get those donated to me. Yes, frankly I could just go buy them all right now, but I'm just curious as to how many people would donate something small like that. I'll be posting the names of those who donate here (unless they wish to be anonymous of course!) If I do get all of them in some sort of timely fashion, I'll buy a house and display them. I might have to rotate them through since wall space is at a premium. So if you feel like participating in this strange experiment, feel free! 3nodding Framed Gaia Artwork #01, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #02, status: Donated Framed Gaia Artwork #03, status: Donated by YourAzureGoddess Framed Gaia Artwork #04, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #05, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #06, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #07, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #08, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #09, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #10, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #11, status: Donated by Living Ink Framed Gaia Artwork #12, status: Donated by Living Ink Framed Gaia Artwork #13, status: Donated by YourAzureGoddess Framed Gaia Artwork #14, status: Earned when Puzzling Framed Gaia Artwork #15, status: Earned when Puzzling Framed Gaia Artwork #16, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #17, status: Donated by zphal_girl87 Framed Gaia Artwork #18, status: Donated by YourAzureGoddess Framed Gaia Artwork #19, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #20, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #21, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #22, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #23, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #24, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #25, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #26, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #27, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #28, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #29, status: Donated by YourAzureGoddess Framed Gaia Artwork #30, status: Wanted Framed Gaia Artwork #31, status: Donated by YourAzureGoddess

	Why not play the puzzles to get them? razz Then it is free and there's a smidge of challenge involved, especially since they only give out items occasionally and even then only sometimes is the item the picture of the puzzle.

	I think the problem there is that it's random... so like buying a box of cereal for the series of prizes in it, you'd be always wondering if you were going to end up with a repeat. I do know there are a lot more puzzles than there are pieces of artwork. Perhaps they forgot, or maybe they figured 31 pieces of artwork was quite sufficient. If a person gave themselves permission to sell one piece and buy one of the ones they were missing, that would work though. 3nodding

	Well, it would appear that you can only do 6 jigsaws a day before Gaia stops awarding you anything. Don't know how often they hand out the bonuses. Admittedly, I should not ask for donations, even of relatively cheap items like this.

	Good luck with that!

	Okay, so far I've managed to get one myself doing jigsaws, and 3 donated to me. I'll put all of this up in pictures shortly. 3nodding

	I thought any time you played a puzzle that has artwork of it available, if you get artwork, you can only get the one of that puzzle from it. Oo; Is that not true? Also, you you know if you don't finish the puzzle if it counts as one of the six for the day? I ask because you can only get art if that purple corner shows up, so if it doesn't when you open the puzzle, if it doesn't count if you don't finish, you could just keep opening new ones until you got the ones with the purple corner.

	That's what it used to do... but I guess lots of people decided they wouldn't do a puzzle unless it had the purple item border in it... so now you don't know until the end of the puzzling if you won an item. Another note... it seems to be somewhat random how many puzzles you can do in a day. I did like 8 or 9 yesterday. Hmm... I'll pay more attention to which puzzle I'm doing and which artwork I get from it. I think it's random which one you get, but if it isn't, that sure would simplify things a lot! Maybe another goal I should set is to do every jigsaw puzzle on every difficulty setting exclaim

	Oh, holy man... do I have artwork. For awhile I did two insane puzzles a day... (which was insane) and since I have them all memorized, I can do about 6-10 hard puzzles in a hour. >.< I have ~alot~ of artwork. The only problem? I stored about 80% of it in my home storage locker, and now that they changed the way the inventory loads, I usually get an error message when I try to access it. Let me see if I can call it up. I have at least 2 artworks in my inventory unstored and prolly 8-10 more stored, with duplicates on some.

	Which is your favorite puzzle to do? My best memorized puzzle is the one where Johnny Gambino is opening the door, and Edmund looks like he's giving him a piece of his mind!

I like that one. I'm fond of Ian dreaming, Edmund sipping his tea, The elvis-rocker one, the Resistance is Futile one, Rina and Peyo, and when I want a challenge the blue vampire w/binoculars puzzle. But my very fav ('specially for Insane level) is the one with the kid holding the Snow Yeti plush in the playground. It's very easy to seperate the areas of color and put the puzzle together. biggrin (and my least fav? The Momo in Vegas one. That one ~scares~ me.)
