[PUZZLE] Envelope Under The Door 5 Per On the MHC forum, Derek said:
Quote:
Okay gang, more dorm room weirdness… I came home a little while ago to find an envelope slipped under my door. Inside it were 10 pieces of paper—9 squares with letters on them, and one reading "5 PER."

Two of the snippets can be put together to form the word "importance"...

I did some foot work for yah. I found a few words. I don't think this is the correct order. But I thought I would make it so you guys can move them around for yourselves. I am getting to tired right now to stare at this any more.
EDIT: FIXED TYPO

Personally, i dislike embedding an image with a hotlink to another site. For one thing, it sucks bandwidth from the other guy, and it slows down the page load here, especially when all i want to do is read the text and not see the same old image everytime i return.
One solution is to grab the image and upload it here as an attachment. At least it uses our own bandwidth, displays as a smaller thumbnail (when the image is large), and preserves it in case the other hosting site goes down or changes the image. (Some sites even stop delivering an image if they get too many hits from outside weblinks.)
Another solution is to simply paste the image url and let people click to view it.

But to answer your question, you started out right using the BBCode tag. When you hover over that button, take a look at the sample code line; that tells you how to format it for correct use. To get the full URL of an image, with my browser I right-click on the image and tell it to "view image" -- that loads it as a stand-alone image and puts the URL in my browser's address bar. It's a simple matter to copy-paste from there.
And, new puzzle! WOOHOO!

here is something i have been working on. it may be the right way and then it may be way off base.
I don't want to cause more confusion, so sorry if that happens, but maybe it will help one of you to see something.

In that same spirit (of "I hope this isn't just adding more confusion"), here's what I've been working on.
EDIT: I'm not particularly fond of this solution, but if you take "5 per" to mean "only use 5 squares per envelope," you can use five of the squares in the first envelope to arrive at the phrase "man of historical importance." (see attachment).
