Obligatory Poll Question
Did a new attempt, and now I'm done with 1-5. With the new hints I did maybe 5 guesses on Q6, 10 on Q7 and 20 on Q8. Nothing so far, but I guess the hard part is getting the exact phrase you want. For what I think you want for Q8 I can think of anywhere from 3 to 6 words saying basically the same thing, and those words can be different, so there are many different combinations that could fit... If I'm not completely off, I could be.

I'm gonna add even more answers seeing as many are struggling to get the wording quite right -- it won't be quite what I want to answer to be, but it'll should easier getting them now
It was supposed to be simple to understand (and I think it is, most people understand what I'm trying to say) but I can see the wording has been an issue -- something to remember for next time! :D
(Thanks to everyone for bearing with me)

Thought the same thing. Both could work without the cat and the ball so it was too obvious maybe and the asnwer is something completely different.
Edit: Got it. Geez, the hints worked out. Never thought of that. :D

Yes, but it's a picture of a cat walking down a catwalk (you know, where models walk down during fashion shows).

even google thinks the answer is catwalk :P (Sorry for the length of the link, and yes I did resort to reverse-googling the image to see if that helped)
Also you say you wouldn't do that but I direct you to the potato question

My frustration lead me to put in what I thought was a ridiculous answer for Q8 and it turned out to be right. So I used the same logic on Q7 and got through. And then I found out I already had the game. I'm exhausted with nothing to show for it.
Well I've got the satisfaction of finishing it anyway. Otherwise I would be haunted by this puzzle. Bump for solved.

Bump for finally solved! I agree - Q7 and Q8 were different from the rest which were enjoyably challenging rather than frustrating.
Anyway, thanks very much for the giveaway, and for relieving the frustration with some helpful hints!

Compound words will get you some of them, but not all. 1 and 2 are two word answers, but they shouldn't be all too difficult. The rest are all one word answers except 7, which is between 4 and 7 words, and 8, which is between 4 and 6 words. For the longer answers I basically added an 'a' at the beginning, (e.g. a blah walking on a blah), but the 'a' is not necessary, it was just to allow for varying answers.
Those parentheses might have been a big hint ;)

Okay, without this I would have never got q7 and q8. Thanks for the hints, now I'm just stuck at q6... it's supposed to be just 1 word?!?
edit: Got it, again, took me a while to get the hint :P

Only 8 left. I have some ideas, but none of them work :/
Ah, now I get it. It was easier than I thought.

My first Puzzle Giveaway!
CV needs to be 1+, so most people should be able to have a go
Sorry about the really bad image editing, I used MS Word because I think it's actually better then MS Paint for this stuff, believe it or not.
If it's too difficult then just let me know and I can add hints here
Ends sometime on the 28th of April for most people :D
Here is le link: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/1SttOB7Z
(P.S.) as it's my first puzzle, please let me know if I fudged up :D tyty
---EDIT---
Alrighty so it was getting a bit difficult at the end; I knew the last ones were going to be more of a challenge. I don't think my answers are written strangely but obviously I understand now that I need a bit of variation and I've added it to the answers for 7 and 8. Oh and 3, 4, ---EDIT--- 5 ---END EDIT---and 6 are only one word (that might help)
Seems I'm learning more about this puzzle business as we go along!
---EDIT---
Added more answers for the few at the end so you can be less exact again - if you get the answers by now you'll understand what I'm trying to do
My next puzzle will have much more answers, don't worry :D
(if you're having issues with 3, ignore the cushion and the strap thing and focus on what the baby is actually doing, the answer is a compound word)
---EDIT---
Added even more answers :D glhf
---EDIT---
The poll results make me feel less like I'm the only one... Thanks :D
---YET ANOTHER EDIT---
Someone suggested to me an answer for 6 that isn't what I had but was pretty sweet so I added that answer too; they're both really similar but if you were having problems with 6 you might find your previous attempts could be correct (same as most of the others really; I added a lot of answers)
---MORE EDITING---
Added another few answers for Q7, as well as adding to the hint for Q8. The closer we get to the GA ending, the more hints I'll give.
I'll stick to one/two word answers next giveaway haha :D they seemed to work well. All about learning I suppose...
---HINTS HINTS HINTS---
Ok so this thing is ending in about one day, so I'm gonna add some hints here that should steer some people in the right track. I'd also recommend looking through the comments because there are some hints in there too (somewhere).
1) Google 'Futurama' if you don't know it, because you'll need to know who this character is to understand the pun here. The answer also includes a European country.
2) What's the man doing? What's he catching? If I'm fishing for dolphins, I'd be dolphin fishing. If I'm fishing for -- ...
3) The answer is also a verb for something teens often do for parents who'd like a break from these little buggars. Don't add 'ing'.
4) Where's the arrow pointing to, in regards to the word? It's pointing to the -- of the word, making the answer week--
5) The end of the word 'potato' could be extended to include the name for the appendage this potato has grown. (It's a simple matter of adding one letter to the end of the word)
6) What is the light replacing? Add that + 'light' (There's also another answer but I think this hint will be enough)
7) What's the cat on? 'Cat on a --'
8) Where's the ball? It's at some type of function (something you might do in your last year of school) - 'Ball at a --'
Okay, those hints should make this puzzle as easy as 1 2 3 (4 5 6 7 8) :D
