#3 and #9 are evading me right now. I have something for #9 but I know it's wrong unless of course the author of it is a Start Trek fan.

Oh I think I just got #3.

Here it is blown up.

I'm still working on 9.

Hmmm...I have all but 1 and 9. I'm guessing 1 is obvious since nobody else has mentioned it. I'll come back to it later and see if it jumps out at me.

Thanks for posting these puzzles, Jasdip.

I’ve got ideas for 5 and 6 but not 100% convinced.

Hint: read no further if you don't want a hint

#3 Spell backwards, #5 then how many times is it spelled backwards #9 put a no in front of what is missing

I think#9 is confusing, I would have written the first word a little differently.

bpath, I agree with you about #9.

I still don't get #9 even with the hint. I think I'm stuck on the one that's in my head which I know is wrong.

blfenton, I think #9 is what a lot of people will be saying to friends after pandemic restrictions are lifted.

Good hint, Roxsol

So I guess space time continuum is not correct for #9.

But I think I finally got it. Thanks roxsol.

Think I got 'em all!

😃

Got all except #9 the first time through. Working on it.

edited to add, I see what I didn’t see at first in #9 (or rather what isn’t there) so I think I have it now.

I got them all except 8 and no one else seems to have problems with it. I have an answer but it seems stupid. Is it?

Why am I not getting #6?

lily....yes.

patriciae....hint: what color is the word sheep?

The placement of "sheep" is critical to solving #6, and it's still a bit of a stretch. Seven and ten are clues for #6, I think.

Does Chris Evert make sense for 8?

Lily, I love that clue. I thought I had the correct answer but after I read your clue I realised I didn’t. Now, I do. 😀

Not reading posts because I don’t want hints but I just changed 5 to something I’m much more comfortable with. Still reconsidering 6, and then will read what you guys are saying. 🙂

Thank you Nicole. I just could not get that one. It was making me slightly nuts

Roxsol...Don't listen to my clue. I'm probably wrong...lol

hint: #8 count them....then say it. I had it wrong at first too.

Oh darn I was comfortable but wrong with my answer for 8. Based on another hint I’m either correct with number 6 or not the only one that’s wrong.

I had #8 wrong until @nicole___'s hint. Thank you. Now it's obvious.

I would have composed #9 differently, in a way that geometrically makes more sense to me: (Height vs. Length) (Edit: A long long time ago I was managing a Burger King. A bus pulled onto the lot. It was a basketball team. I went to the front register to help take orders and found myself looking up... up... up at the players and thinking my my, how tall they were. But not once would I have considered looking up and thinking... my my, how long these guys are. :) Now if I had have been working in a clothier... then yeah... roll out the twenty eight extra longs. :) )

#6? What color? Yeah, I suppose I know what the answer must be but... everything is that same color so I'm not sure the distinction is obvious... to me.

#5 I have an answer but... it may be wrong.

Yeah I dont like that answe for 6 for the same reason.

I‘ve got no issue with 9. Tall thin people are describe thusly even when standing.

#6 isn’t all the same colour. At least the colours look different to me. Black is black but the colour surrounding it is blue.

Ooh. Jasdip’s original posting shows the colour much better than the enlargement by Lars. I guess it depends on which one you are looking at. 🤔

Now I'm rethinking 8.

Hey guys, #6 doesn't need to have blue in it. I have no idea why they put that there. So your original guesses are probably right.

Came back this morning and yes, 1 jumped right out at me -- I was definitely overthinking that one - ha. Have them all now.

lily.....seriously....you had it!

I wish I'd seen the blue in #6, I had to wing it....yes...having the blue makes the black a clue!

Honestly.....this was a difficult one for me. I sat and brewed over it...#8 & #9.

Yes, I agree that #6 doesn’t really need to have blue in it. Sorry if I misled anyone on that ☹️

I thought the blue made Nicole's hint make sense. I really like Richard's version of #9 though I had it right. His is better.

Scroll on by if you don't want the answers yet.....

1. Red in the face

2. Green eggs and ham

3. Backrub

4. All thumbs

5. Two left feet

6. Black sheep in the family

7. Big fish in a little pond

8. tennis shoes

9. Long time no see

10. All in a day's work

Yippee - 100%!

Thanks Jasdip 😊

P.S. I take issue with the title on that image - are those really rebusses? They are made only from letters and words, not pictures...

Yay me. Although on number 8, I was wavering on thinking maybe it was a bunch of sneezes but I stuck to the tennis shoes one. The rest were pretty easy and this is my third 100% in a row. My brain must be waking up. I DID say redfaced on 1 but that's the same thing.

Yeah I had 8 as tissues (T-issues) until I saw the hint to count. But other than that I’m happy with myself.

I cant say 100% because I needed a hint but close is good too.

My first, and almost instantaneous, reaction for #9 was one word, 'timelessly', which didn't really make sense. Then someone's hints, which were practically the answers, gave me the correct answer. So, I came close, too.

Rusty

I needed the hint to get #9, but otherwise I got the rest of them. I think if the word "time" had been stretched out horizontally instead of vertically, I would have gotten it, but the vertical stretch made me think of "tall" or 'thin" instead of "long."

I needed a hint for #9 as well but got all the others.

Thanks Jasdip. Doing this is really fun.

Lily, I thought the same thing yesterday.

Now that I see the answer to eight, it's no wonder we didn't get it that is a stupid answer. Oh my goodness!

That said, thank you jasdip!!!! for doing these puzzles they are so much fun!!!!!!!!

Minor point but... number eight, I had "Black sheep OF the family" instead of "Black sheep IN the family".

Number eight... at first I was thinking "Tissue" but the "issue"'s were not quite in the shape of a "T"... too top heavy.

Tissue would possibly have been more like this?:

Ten issue

no

#5 still doesn't make sense to me. I thought it was trying to depict 'One step forward, two steps back' using the word 'feet' instead of 'step' because 2 of the 'feet' are written backwards, since the spelling is done from right to left. So had they simply printed all the 'feet' normally, but put two of them to the left, I would have gotten it, lol.

I was implying tennis shoe-the reason for ten of them. Sorry not being clear.

Amicus - that was my first answer for #5 as well.
