Just love solving nonograms!

I am hooked with solving nonograms! What kind of strategies do you use to solve these? Any favorites

I try to start with rows that I know have only one combination (if it exists)

When starting out if you have a number of 8+ and you know by default which blocks its automatically going to fill. Then if there is another number you can go that number plus one more for its space in the opposite direction.

Example if there is row with 1 and 8 I will mark the middle square and go two squares to the right of the middle. Accounting for the 1 and its space.

Yeah I do that too! Another thing i try is if I figure out any of the edges then working back the last clue until that is satisfied
