That one was hard. I don't even think I got it right.

This is the best components, congratulations for the award, and come on guys, lets try the easter egg......

Done! not sure if I'm 100% correct

Great puzzle.  Thanks for the fun.

Thats cool egg hunt !

dONE!

Great Puzzle - had the family on that one

couldn't figure out what the last picture meant, FML. XD

What are you waiting for, find the egg, view the pics and submit your answer, I did!

Great puzzle!

Interesting puzzle! :)

That was fun - good luck everybody! :)

That was fun little puzzle!

DevExpress won another award!  Now see if you have what it takes to win an award for yourself.

What great Easter Egg Hunt. I am always up for games.

I think I did it !

Great!

I'd love to give a hint, but I know I shouldn't...

Complete!

The first one had me stumped for quite a while. Looked to much like he knew what he was doing but then I thought of myself. Looks can be deceiving!

Like it!

Great Puzzle,  Thanks for this fun

What fun!

LOL... :)

@Rachel... surely.. if you conceive the idea... piece of cake.. but the contest is a little hard... and this is cool.. Thank you for give us the opportunity  to get the best controls in the market... in an ingenious sort...really funny...

I emailed the answer to Rachel. This is really creative contest indeed. Everyone should try a hand at this contest and enter to win the excellent prize.

Thanks

ha.  Indeed Gary was correct!

Let's celebrate Easter Egg together! :)

First of all congratulations for winning the best seller award on the componentsource and best of luck for the future

I have solved the puzzle and hope to win the prize

I KNOW ;-) I found it...

Nice idea!

Am I supposed to recognise the person?

I think I got it - that was really fun. Thank you :)

Another great egg hunt. Felt like Indiana J. :)

That was fun. Had me stumped looking for the egg in the wrong place for a while, there (I'm pretty dumb in the morning apparently).

I did it but not sure whether I got it ;-)

Must try the plugins too :-)

Couldn't figure out 'redpoloshirt...'

;-)

Nice puzzle, solution not so obvious.

Also had no idea who the person was but enjoyed it just the same.

I can't wait to see the real answer :) There is so much to win so I encourage others to send answer.

Congratulations on a well-deserved award. :)

I think I solved the puzzle... hope I get a prize!

try it, it's not toooo hard!

Wow.  Awesome hints.  Not too easy and not too difficult.  That was fun.

I use your Winform controls and absolutely love them.  Saves a lot of time and offers plenty of features and flexibility.  Great Product!

Took me a couple minutes, but now it's obvious.  If you "think" you got it right, you didn't.  If you "know" you got it right, you did.

Took me 2 days, but finally got it.  I agree with Scott's comment, you'll "know" when you get it.

Great contest.  Once I figured out the what and not the who it clicked for me.

Took me a week and a half to figure this one out. Once I decoded the Hieroglyphs dyed on the egg, I was halfway there.

I hope the password is not case sensitive.  :)

I excatly agree with you

This it’s kind of hard for the people on countries who do not celebrate Easter

Thanks for the break.  Gotta get your head outta the code every now and then.

Made a guess based on previous comments (thanks everyone) and the clues. Not sure if I'm right or not but I made an attempt. : )

My God, my english is soo bad... Any idea to help me?? i think i dont understand what i to do in this contest :(

Please, in name of Love, help me...

;)

Hi Max,

Hint: The first guy looks like some kind of coder/programmer to me (it's not his name that matters). And the last picture is not a click, finger, hand, but something else you can do with your finger. Oh, and when you figure out the answer you'll know it.

Image names contain more hits.  Nice game.

Wow that made me feel stupid.

Done. See if you can do it too. Yeah you. Oh and the hint is: Don't think of Easter bunny.

I think the contest was pretty easy, unless the "password" is case-sensitive (as Matt Theule mentioned) or it contains punctuation (as in the word "Egg-ceptionally").

Gee, Mark, why don't you just tell everyone the answer?

;)

- Evil C

I'm so lost, I have an idea but you guys say you'll "know" which just throws me off...

Got it! That was a lot of fun - took me a second and I'll give you a hint. If you have Google Goggles on your phone, take a picture of the hand and see what you get back. Between that and Mark's comment, it all worked out.

And my downside, I know exactly who he is (I work at MS) and that isn't helping me any... I'm sure I'm over complicating it though.

Done!

Wow, a red shirt!  Does that mean he's a security officer?  Don't stand near him... redshirts tend to die quickly!

He ISN'T a security officer?  Wait... I KNOW!!!

Man - I was getting caught up on a couple of things, but finally figured it out.

Great comp thanks I think it used my last brain cell  :)

Don't overthink it...

Gads... interpretations... I'll email my 'list' of what I thought it would be.

I asked my daughter what she thought and she came up with something totally different.

Interesting.

Great idea I must confess that when I fount out it is so really simple that I laughed at least for 5 mins.

Cool puzzle. A little too easy, though.

C'mon, guys... We're brainy nerds here! Remember, we not only created the Y2K problem but we solved it, too! You can get the answer to this.

>If you "think" you got it right, you didn't.  If you "know" you got it right, you did.

^ This.

That was a fun diversion.  Thanks for all the great widgets!

Thanks for helping us get the job done right!

wrong ring finger,bad egg,right idea........

password???DEBUGGING

Interesting but do you score any points for cryptic answers?

You need to stop thinking to answer this one..

I'll admit it, I had to cogitate on this one a bit! Thanks for the fun though.

Great competition, took me a few goes on the last image to put together - nicely done!

Oh my~ I can't believe it took me the whole of 2 days!

Take care not to "wander too far from here", and note the hints from the DevExpress guys; they are very telling! Heheh...

Oh my word...

The answer is obvious 'AFTER' you finally get it.

But getting there was actually a struggle without tips along the way...

Good one though...

Password sent. Thanks for the 5 minutes of fun, and Congratulations!!

This was not on the difficult scale. I followed the only available paths, to me.

This was a nice egg finding

Thanks for all the great controls. Congrats on the award.

The secret is to say what you see.... I think I got it :)

Good luck to all.

I couldn't find the easter egg but I have worked out the password from the comments on this page. Thanks guys.

I struggled with this one for a while.  At 3am, last night, I woke up, figured it out and went to sleep.  When I woke up in the morning I had a panic because I couldn't remember it! Lol!

GROAN!!  It's really not difficult after all!

That's funny, once it clicked.

Had me going for a while, but I think I have it.

Found It, I kept overlooking it.

Took me a while to get it, and now I have, I feel a little slow :-(

Arrrg! Took me way to long to figure it out. Had the right idea initially but just wasn't able to put the words together. Thanks for the contest!

yep, overthought that one for a while.

Nice diversion for a friday.

Clever Puzzle, took me a couple of minutes.

The jpg names help.

This was fun!  The best hint is that you'll know it when you get it.  Mark helped to push me over the top to get it.

Fun puzzle.

That's difficult! I gave it go, you shoud too!!

Good idea!

Congratulations for beeing the Bestseller.

Keep up the good work!

I will admit it, I am a slow person, I just got it.

Amazing how you can over think things.

Congrats to DX, and shame on me ;)

Hi Mark M.,

thanks for the reply ;)

...But it's very hard for me... sorry

Thanks from the heart, really...

Max

PS: Congrats to all of you guys :) really good work

Hi Rachel,

I got it! So please pick me:)

Maggie
