Crossbin puzzles

Crossbin puzzles are similar to crossword puzzles except that:

the clues are hexadecimal numbers, and
the answers are binary numbers ('0's and '1's) instead of words.

Also, once the puzzle is complete, if you fill all the '1' squares with black you will see a small picture or pattern.

Given the hexadecimal clues and a conversion chart like the following:

Hex	Binary	Hex	Binary	Hex	Binary	Hex	Binary
0	0000	4	0100	8	1000	C	1100
1	0001	5	0101	9	1001	D	1101
2	0010	6	0110	A	1010	E	1110
3	0011	7	0111	B	1011	F	1111

You can calculate the answer using the chart and then enter the binary digits into the crossbin squares.

Simple example:

The first Across clue is hexadecimal "2", which (according to our conversion chart) is "0010" in binary so that's the answer we need to insert in the puzzle.

We only have 2 squares in which to write our (4-digit) answer, but that's OK because any '0's at the beginning of the number can be removed. So we chop off the "00" at the beginning and insert "10" into the puzzle:

Next, let's look at the first Down clue: "11".

This is a 2-digit hexadecimal number that we need to convert to binary. We do this by converting each digit separately and combining the result:

hexadecimal "1" becomes binary "0001", so
hexadecimal "11" becomes binary "00010001" ("0001" + "0001")

We only have 5 squares, so we chop off the three '0's on the left and insert "10001" into the puzzle:

If we next do [5] Across, we have a clue of "14" which becomes "00010100" ("0001" + "0100") in binary.

To fit this in the 6 available squares, we chop off 2 of the three '0's at the beginning to produce the answer: "010100".

Note that it's OK for crossbin puzzle answers to begin with a '0'.

Looking at [2] Down, we have a clue of "A" which is "1010" in binary.

But we have 5 squares in which to write the answer. Just like it is OK to remove '0's at the beginning of the number, it is also OK to add '0's to at the beginning. So we change "1010" to "01010" and write that as our answer:
