Breaking it into layers really sucked...
yeah coz it was a static image... what if it was a javascript puzzle with the pieces already separated and dragable?
how about this for a variation on the game (sorry not much there yet, i'm away from my wallet):
Solved. The image that I actually scanned into my phone is below:
I was mainly just curious if I could do it

going to post the last round for today in 20 seconds
good luck !
good luck !
I would take however long it required to figure it out. And by "however long" I mean about 2 days probably. lol.
seriously? there are only 8 pieces + it's obvious where 4 of them go + i purposely made some of them non-rectangular to make it even easier. i guess i'm biased though for being around photoshop every day.
anyway if it's not redeemed by the time i get home, i'll add some more btc to it, haha.
Well I'm going to bed. I think I'll give the opportunity to win a few bitcents a miss... ... My competitive urges are frustrating.

20btc? Oh please don't give me a heart attack. 
The process of properly piecing an image back together can be difficult by hand. Especially with only two colors and very straight lines. Also even if you get "close" the QR scanner might have trouble getting the right info out of the image.
you're right. funny that matthew said 'not a chance' he would even attempt it though... what if this kind of puzzle had 20 btc in it?

i tried scanning, not working , have you included fake QR-codes?
no, it's a real one from bitaddress.org.... i just cut it a bit in paint brush. it should be easily put back together in paint brush.
it's mainly just an example, but there's 0.01 sent to it... maybe for more difficult ones such as these, the BTC amount needs to be much higher
Will this next one be soon... I have to get to bed.

thanks for your feedback, I have a riddle/puzzle style competition coming up in few minutes
good luck , hope you win this time @TheStig

I don't know. I managed to get 3 of these. I was waiting for it a bit but yeah get the word out before posting the codes and make it more of a toss up. I don't know a puzzle might be fun for the key with the highest amount. I think this is great though. Very fun to try and race to get them. FYI if you use "Barcode Scanner" for Android it's easier to email the code to yourself after scanning and then copy and pasting it into MtGox on your computer. I thought I'd help out the competition. 
Good strategy

I'll add 10 QR-codes , each with at least 0.02 next time, so you have more chance of winning next time, I'll also announce the start time of competition so you can get your phone out and be ready !
shall I all add small puzzle/quiz ? or you have any ideas to make the competition more interesting ?
Aww I couldn't get any.
