Barack Obama gave his first news conference as president-elect today. In case you missed it, check out the video here.

Obama appeared with so many advisors that even we had a hard time figuring out who they all were. So our challenge to you is: How many of Obama's advisors can you identify in the photo?

This is for a possible total of 18 points. Answers after the jump. No peeking.

We don't know who the third from right is or the second from left. Can you help us?
