	Here's the last of my Time series. I hope you can recognize many of the people. I tried to pick familiar names, but I know putting a name to a face is different. Try the other decades (2000s, 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s, 50s, or 40s), if you liked this or want a more current challenge. Thanks to all for playing and for all the comments along the way.

	Love it, as always. Though I'd suggest a note that the two people in the photo in the bottom row are characters, as opposed to real people or actors (I looked at it and thought, "Well, it looks like Alice in Wonderland", but didn't try it).

	I don't think I've ever seen Dali with a moustache so short. The whole series of quizzes has been a lot of fun!

	Really good series !

	Fenrik:	Jan 12th, 2011 at 18:41 GMT	1 point
	I loved the series, even if I got increasingly worse. Never heard of some of them, nevermind, they're in the minority. Double headslap though for not getting our own Marlene!

	I assume Welles is in costume? Faulkner and Ford looked so familiar; couldn't put my finger on them!!

	Anyone can tell it's the King of Hearts and Alice. I automatically assumed you were asking for the names of the actors dressed like them in the picture. That is, actors who are associated with the 20's or 30's, as opposed to the characters, who really aren't. Dirty trick.

	googlebird:	Jan 13th, 2011 at 01:40 GMT	6 points
	@Tahan and @fishmonkeyfrog - The name of the actor and actress are acceptable answers for King of Hearts and Alice (Alec Francis and Charlotte Henry), although they are not well known. The film from 1933 starred Cary Grant, Gary Cooper and W.C. Fields. I wasn't trying to be tricky, since I had several fictional characters on my other quizzes (Big Bird, Harry Potter, Darth Vader, Superman, etc.)

	I'm surprised I got so many, but really it was only because I tried every name I remembered hearing from Titanic and Boardwalk Empire. Annoyed at some I missed, though. Bravo!

	Who is Welles portraying in that picture?

	Who else thought Princess Elizabeth was Shirley Temple?

	Could have sworn Irving Berlin was Mr Bean.

	I can't see the last column on the right at all, & the next to the last is cut in half. Any ideas about what I can do to fix this?

	googlebird:	Jan 14th, 2011 at 23:21 GMT	1 point
	@steeltown - Are you using Internet Explorer? If so, try using a different browser like Firefox or Google Chrome. Thanks for trying to play.

	steeltown:	Jan 16th, 2011 at 01:53 GMT	1 point
	Yes, Googlebird, I'm using IE-- but I fixed it by hitting the compatibility view button. DUH. Dandy quiz--- I've enjoyed them all.

	googlebird:	Jan 16th, 2011 at 03:56 GMT	2 points
	@steeltown - Tell me where or how to find the compatibility view button. So many folks have trouble viewing images with IE, but I didn't know there was a way to fix it.

	steeltown:	Jan 17th, 2011 at 05:38 GMT	2 points
	It's on the Tools menu of IE. You can add it to your toolbar if you want. The symbol is a torn paper.

	I've really enjoyed this series of quizzes, and I'm sorry that you've run of of Time.

	DanTravers1:	Jan 20th, 2011 at 06:59 GMT	2 points
	What I've been doing when the last column gets cut off is copy and paste the picture to a word document.

	Oh dear, I got 3.

	I really don't think that is Orville Wright. Are you sure??

	mtbowers:	Mar 9th, 2011 at 04:08 GMT	1 point
	It IS Orville Wright - gosh it doesn't look like him at all!

	debbiedoesnothin:	Mar 9th, 2011 at 06:54 GMT	2 points
	For Dionne quintuplets, I think you need to add "Dionne quintuplets" as an alternate answer. I typed "Dion quintuplets" at first, then added the extra letters (to spell it Dionne) and it didn't accept the answer. Good quiz and nice variety of faces.

	I kept looking at Henry Ford and thinking he was Jack Kevorkian.

	White people, white people everywhere.

	astrobradley:	Apr 3rd, 2011 at 23:06 GMT	1 point
	Like it, but I would suggest having the answer field in terms of columns, not rows. Since Sporcle organizes them into columns anyway, it's difficult to quickly look at the answer field and correlate which ones you're missing. Good mix, I like it!
