how relevant is C today?

Ugh, don't remind me! :)

I'm stuck on level 12, which is yet another image processing puzzle. I'm 
getting tired of those, and I think it's really a shame that there is a 
reliance on image puzzles rather than simply doing some coding to figure 
out an algorithm, for example. (I really enjoyed writing my own function 
to figure out the Morris sequence.)

Level 11 was an image puzzle that I flat-out cheated on to move forward, 
and now here I am again at 12, another complex image puzzle, and I can't 
find the answer for it. If anyone feels like emailing me with the 
solution, I certainly won't be offended. :)

I just hope that later puzzles stop relying on PIL and start requiring 
that you do some real coding with other modules, or even with just the 
core language itself.
