Okay, on my first painting it was South-Yellow. I left it right where it was and pulled the handle.

The second color was East-Green. I turned it one space counter-clockwise and pulled the handle.

The third painting was Blue-West. I turned it three times until it was on the west side and pulled the handle. Nothing happened.

Did you match the color above the machine to the color in the box?

You have to match up the colors according to the paintings direction....

So you leave the yellow on the machine since its south.

You put green in the east position

Put blue on the west.

And Red to the north (the wall above the machine).

Then pull the handle. It's tricky to get the colors in that order, but it's what you need to do in order to get the key.

I'm sorry I didn't get back sooner, I could have saved you your nice last post. I finally did get the key, but now I can't find a place to use it. Please no hints yet as I'm going to figure it out yet...maybe. Up to this last poser I have gone through all 12 levels on my own with no help. Brag, brag, brag. Thanks again Monk!

Hey, Monk, good ole buddy, I have the key, the waterproof tape and a screwdriver.

I have clicked onto every conceivable place (trees, trunks, walls, ceilings, baseboards, sky, bird...you name it, I've clicked it) with each of the three items.

Am I missing a tool? Is the program not working for me? I think I'm supposed to find a bucket somewhere, but nothing opens.

I'm crying uncle and asking for a wee hint.

...also every time I go back I have to retrieve the key again. This time I'm doing the exact same thing as before, with the new color code and it won't give up the key. Big ARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!

...again. Monk, I think I finally figured out that pull-handle machine. You have to program all four sides at one time and pull the handle only once. Duh!

Anyway, sweetie, refer to my post of 9:16 this morning. I still cannot do anything else.

I just did this last night so it's all kind of jumbled together, but maybe I can help. I want to say go to D floor, there's a room with 2 sofas and a locker down there. Use the key to open the locker and get the bucket (it's in the same room with the dove). Go back to the floor where you can go outside to the wagon. Go left and there is more screen. I'll let you figure it out from there so I don't spoil it :-)

The color machine was kicking my butt too! Then I realized that it doesn't matter what colors are on the wall at first. Just match the colors up like they should be on the cube then pull...aya yi yi!

I have been in and out of that room time after time. The key I got out of the color machine will not open either of the lockers. I'm stumped, but I'll try it again.

Thanks for the help, Freckle.

It's a white key, I think that opens the bucket locker, but I don't remember where I got the key. Have you solved the puzzle in the room with the compass direction points on the floor? The black bars on the wall in four grids that have color in them? That might be where I got the white key. It's on floor C or D.

All I have is the gold key from the color machine with the red pull handle. You mean I need a white key? I thought the compass direction thing on the floor was just to alert us to use compass points in the color machine. I'll go back to the floor compass and dog it for awhile.

Be back in a few minutes to let you know if I get any where.

I'll be checking every few minutes for a bit, if I can help. I'm waiting to see if someone can figure out my puter problems in the tech thread...lol.

The compass on the floor and the wall with the four grids are on two different floors. I'm getting no where fast. Was the key on the floor with the color grids on the wall?

Ack, sorry! I thought the compass was on the same floor as the color grids. The color grids are where I think you might get the other key. You get something for solving it and the key is the only thing that makes sense.

Well, I was wondering about that grid. I'll twiddle about with it for a bit. Did it take a key, tape or the screwdriver?

The grid is another color puzzle, no other items needed. Just take one *block* at a time and figure out how to get the color bars filled in.

I have 4 small red squares lit up, but I don't know why they did. Is it the area of the red squares I need to concentrate on? Not the multi-colored inner squares in each grid?

You're getting there. The wall is in 4 grids. Take only 1 grid at a time and get your red line. Then in that same grid, figure out which line is next (make right angles) and so on until you've filled in the grid. Then move onto the next grid and do the same thing until you have all 4 grids lit up.

Do all of the squares surrounding the multi-colored grids have to be turned red? From time to time I have stumbled into getting 4 different series of them red, but never more than 4 at a time...and it's always a different set of 4. Oh, I'm getting a headache!

I can get 4 lit and no more. I'll go take another crack at it. Thanks for hanging in there with me. I'm going to try for a few more minutes and then bug out for dinner.

Well, I'm now finished and out the back door. Thank you so much, Azriel, for letting us know the 13th level had been added. I sure hope they don't take so long this time to add some more levels. Please let us know when your hear more.
