I don't know if this has been done before, so sorry if it has, but I just wanted a topic where one could go to in order to find a nice brain-teaser!
Anyway, how it'll work is that I post a puzzle, and in replies y'all discuss the puzzle. When one person thinks that they have it, they put it in a spoiler labeled "Solution," and I'll look to see if it's right. If it is, then that person gets to post the next puzzle, and it keeps on going. Anyways, here's my puzzle:
Y'all can think about it and discuss.

You move the upright one so that it's parallel with the diagonal one.

^But from a different perspective... wouldn't that give a square?

Nope. As people have already pointed out, it doesn't make a square. In fact, the length doesn't even matter. The angles aren't right. Remember, you want a Perfect Square. Also, it's preferred it you post an image for this one.

That line looks slightly broken, so I assume that it's supposed to be 1 straight line. Reading from left or right, it's a 4.
Fix'd, you forgot the spoiler tags, but it's correct! Nice job! Your turn for a puzzle!

Actually, I initially thought of that as a solution, but then I don't think anybody writes a 4 like that without the horizontal middle line jutting out, so I found another method. And well, the perfect square thing totally gave it away.
I can't think of a good puzzle really, so I'll give you a chess puzzle I stole from somewhere else. Which means to say, the answer is googleable. (Being a picture, it's harder to google though. I'll reveal where it's from when solved.)
White to play and mate in one. Note: black (pawns) moves down and white (pawns) moves up.

Incorrect. d4 pawn eats e3 queen, unchecked. It is likely that nobody might be able to give a solution within a suitable period of time, so if requested, I can give hints.
EDIT2: You might want to put that on photobucket or the like. One can just copy image location to find where it's from.
