I started with the bronze too, so I can imagine how you feel

Plenty of people will probably let you send them your map, HOWEVER.....
Before you do that, have you really run out of ideas? Seriously, you'll feel SOOOO much better about opening this classic puzzle if you get to the end by yourself.
You'll struggle to get any direct help, others will probably do the same as myself, encourage you to stick at it
There are also all the usual tips. Make your map accurate, question EVERY assumption you make, try to read the feedback from the pin - notice when things feel different, consider why, and what that might mean.
Question : Have you got access to the bronze registered area ? (Since you posted this in General). The registered area has a progress thread with a rather large selection of clues (in the shape of people reporting their progress). There are also two official clues, one you might find quite useful - have you found it? (Again, getting into the registered forum might be important if you have no idea what I'm talking about).
Good luck and stick at it! It's worth it I promise
