I just found this little handy link for a downloadable, 'offline' version of Flash Player. It doesn't need to be installed, you just need to download the application, and it is immediately ready to be used. This is it: https://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/updaters/32/flashplayer_32_sa_debug.exe
To open your pictograms on it, you'll need to, first, open the application, then in the top left corner, click "File". Then click "Open...". Go right-click on your pictogram's flash page [http://tale-of-tales.com/TheEndlessForest/register/pictogram.php?username=username], and either copy or download the source code. Use this source code in the Flash application, and it should display your pictogram Smiling))

If you know the "True Name" of your pictogram or know what the glyphs look like, you can use the Pictogram Builders to compose it.


Log into the game and check one of the alternate versions of the map. Hover over your picto to make it larger. If you aren't sure what generation your pictogram is, click the generation buttons beneath the map until your pictogram disappears. You can then compose it in the Builders linked above for a larger image.

Has anyone been able to access TEF through BlueMaxima's Flashpoint?

Hey, Jeweleye! I haven't

Hey, Jeweleye! I haven't heard of the Flashpoint application before, but I've checked it out now, and it seems to be an app for browser-games only, isn't it?
I don't quite see how it can be helpful for playing TEF. The game itself does not involve Flash and works fine as it is. As for the map and the pictos on the Community website, I think for now it's easier to use the options suggested above: the non-Flash version of the map and the app found by crabbycrown. Viewing pictos with the app is a bit of a pain, but I hope the devs will fix them soon.

Thank you Urschanabi for your

Thank you Urschanabi for your information. BlueMaxima's Flashpoint is a platform to play older games and see animation that originally ran on Flash Player. I will check out the app that crabbycrown posted.

Are you using the URL that's in the page source code?
It should be looking like http://tale-of-tales.com/TheEndlessForest/register/symbol4.swf?word= , not http://tale-of-tales.com/TheEndlessForest/register/pictogram.php?username=

I think this solution

I think this solution suggested by aowacc (acurna) should also be added to the list of alternatives: https://ruffle.rs/
The browser extension helps to view pictos on people's account pages and opens picto links like
