Ryan. Very quite awesome! Only issues for me are the coal (thought it was a prune, and "prunegate" something only my father drinks) and Dr. Pepper. Anyone else thought those were robots.

I'm glad you liked it. I agree that the salt and pepper shakers are a hard to identify, so I added an 's' to the salt shaker. Hopefully that takes care of that.

Great game! Don't know why, but on all these games with pictures, the last column is cut off on my screen!! You did a great job!

I kept trying to put Microtel for Microsoft. It kind of fit. And I typed out gator aid, said it out loud, but still couldn't think of gatorade

Fun game, but that picture sure doesn't look like coal to me (prunegate, LOL!), and the m&ms seems so obviously m&m's because of the way they are grouped: one (m) and two together (m's) - not that 3m isn't also pretty obvious...

Even though I knew it wasn't right I still typed "alligator first aid kit" on the off chance it was a legit company

the star used for starbucks looks simular to ones that denotes a general on a miltary uniform. this wouldnt matter except that dollar general is actually a dollar store chain with 9000 stores. different star or multiple answers fixes that right up

I changed the 'tin can' to a more literal 'ten'. @ mrchewypoo, I changed the close up coal to a picture from a coal mine. @merleyda, I changed the star and added dollar general as a bonus. I hope things are clearer now.

Really good! I thought the coal picture was of the pick ax or digging - axgate, digate, pickgate, ... When I saw the ones I missed *facepalm*. And the bonus was amusing! Nominated!

I can honestly say I was surprised to see how few of these companies I knew. At least I had fun guessing, typing in 'Patriotic Eagle', 'Needle Legs', 'Star Dollars'. I say, someone should go out, and make these companies! =)

yeah i would change the dr. pepper one or take it out because I also thought they were robots and had no idea on that one. May want to zoom out or get a different picture of an Olive for Olive Garden and the Coal isn't entirely obvious, but other than that excellent idea

excellent quiz. I got as far as "Pick-axe gate" and gave up, but I think that, realistically, no one's gonna recognize coal too easily (unless you use the kid from the Sixth Sense). I agree with the comments about robots though. Had no idea what that one was

I totally got the salt and pepper shakers. I just couldn't figure out why there was a mad scientist stuffed in the pepper shaker.

Loved it Ryan. Way to go. Couldn't get "google", i guess because I kept thinking, "Green Goo". And Sony was another get one. Keep writing these, you did really well. I only missed two.
