(Editors note: This is a re-post from September 1st, 2010 — I’ve updated a few images I thought were lacking, you know, the way George Lucas updated Star Wars)
Are all you young witches and wizards ready for another year full of enchantment at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Make sure you picked up all your books from Flourish & Blotts, and don’t forget to take the Pictogram Challenge (Part II)!
Example:
+ 
= 
Fire + Bolt + Firebolt
I think you’re ready now for some first year level pictograms (2 or 3 images)
These should be easier than taking Neville’s lunch sickles. Go!

Okay, that was a wicked warm up, no? Now let’s move onto O.W.L. level pictograms (3-4 images)
Watch out for tricks such as one image covering syllables from more than one solution word!

Blimey, those O.W.L.s might have gotten a wee bit tough there at the end. And it doesn’t get any easier with the N.E.W.T.s (4-6 images)! Watch out for images that start with voiceless consonants like “y” or “h”, which may be intended as silent letters!
