As there are many Freepers who enjoy puzzles and challenges, have at it!

I solved the color change challenge in 49 moves, but I am sure there is a faster way.

I changed it from red back to all red in 28 moves, and there also may be a faster way!

Patience!

A wise old dude once told me that frustration is a sign that you are learning something...

I ALMOST punched him... but he was right!

I stumbled across a solution in 14. Click across the bottom row, twice.

Actually, you should be able to click across any edge twice.

Whoa!! Well done!
I've seen alot of interesting patterns, including getting the center square red and all the other blue. Also got the four outside corner squares blue and the center red.

Strange puzzle. It's like you can't figure it out by trying to figure it out, you have to just try things.
