It’s hard to comment without being able to see the board but let me try to remember…
1.Qe6 fxe6
2.Bg6#
1.Qe6+ fxe6
2.Bg6#
That was pretty neat; love a good queen sac. But it’s a design flaw in your website to not have the original post visible when leaving comments.
f7 pawn looks over worked and can’t defend both mating threats. Took me a second. But not sure if I would have naturally seen it except it’s a puzzle.
1. Qe6+ fxe6

something simple.
1.Qe6+ and none can save black.

How should White proceed? Well, Qe6+ Comes to mind fairly quickly.

1. Be6 fxe

A cute position from one of my games. White to move and mate in 8.
