Christmas Quest 3

[Obadiah]

I have all the problems fixed except

Spoiler

the firewall and the fan. He says I need 3X as much water as I have to put out the fire, but I can't seem to acquire a bigger glass or more water. I even tried using the water glass on the grow icon, but that didn't work.

Oh yeah, and if anyone could ever answer my question in the "Where's m'hat Ma?" thread, that would be awesome.

He doesn't give you the answer, but he does give you a clue.

If you still can't get it....

The answer to the word puzzle is given when you start solving

I'm stuck on the file clean-up...

I've arranged the pieces so they fit together more or less, with small gaps between them, but nothing happens. How do you do this?

Paolo, as far as I could tell, just make sure they don't overlap or cross the boundaries. In fact, keep them a pixel apart, don't even let them touch each other. Make sure you haven't forgotten something under something. And remember that rotating items can make small but crucial changes.

Thanks. I've tried a few configurations that seem to fulfil all those requirements, but nothing happens. Can anyone PM me with an arrangement that works? Sorry, I don't like using outright solutions or walkthroughs, but either this puzzle is a bit too strict or I'm missing something.

Here's my current arrangement:

Spoiler

* my downloads at far left (right way up)
* post-it note in top left corner (right way up)
* photo in bottom left corner (standing on its right edge)
* CD in space at top right of "my downloads" (with sloping edge at top)
* reels horizontal and sticking out of space at bottom right of "my downloads"
* iPod vertical, with screen at bottom, to right of "my downloads" and above reels
* files upside down and next to iPod and reels
* open notebook vertical, with sloping edge at bottom, positioned to right of files and towards the bottom of the area
* blue notebook horizontal, with spine on right, above open notebook and to right of files

Nothing is overlapping or touching, and everything is squashed up and inside the dotted lines.

Use the glass on the sink 3 times than go in the computer and use your bladder on the fire
