Like French Fries, for example.
I can think of one that’s a football play. FTP 15

Let’s play a little game inspired by Montage
1 = A, B, C, D, or E
2 = F, G, H, I or J
3 = K, L, M, N, or O
4 = P, Q, R, S, or T

314 (encountered an opera house)
221312 (little 4-eyed peace dude)
235 (animal channel?)
who can think of some?

You can pet your pet.
You can drink your drink.
What else?
Also, if you get an idea for a puzzle (visually nice) the answer to which is a season’s greeting (Christmas or other winter holiday) jot it down and wait. We will be launching a greeting card design contest soon…

Who is he?

OK,
Here’s another website finding challenge but not as ridiculously hard as the last one.
Find a website that has one obvious thing on it of a particular color.
For example the Kellogs home page along with RED encodes the word TOMATO.
If we can find a bunch of these we can make something out of it. So post the url and the color, but not the word.

Ok let’s go one level higher.
How about some ideas for Hypercross themes/structures etc.
At some point users will be able to submit Hypercross words/clues but in the mean time this is a way to get more minds in on the making of the puzzles.

Great news! Aaron is getting emails again every time a new puzzle is uploaded. Joe is merciful.

5 points to anyone who sends an email to aaron@tanga.com with a picture attached of an arrangement such as the one in this picture, but situated on a playing card…

Ok here’s something to hunt for that might or might not exist.
Can you find a web site with the address www.something.com where the “something” is a thing and the home page is simply an image of that thing? No text or other images allowed.
No slashes allowed in the address.
5 points for any find that meets the criteria. Not just first.
There might not be any…

How about thinking up acronyms for words that define the word?
For example:
Cuddly allergy threat.
