The mind's eye...

I've always enjoyed optical illusions. If you have any good ones, post 'em.

 

[Squiggy]

had to repost it...

 

[Squiggy]

This one is kinda neat. Stare at the center and move your face toward and away from your screen. The circles move!...

 

[Squiggy]

Some optical confusion..

An Optical Illusion

If you focus your vision on the small dot at the center of the rings in the figure below, and move your head alternately toward and away from the picture, the rings of symbols appear to rotate slightly in opposite directions.

[Squiggy]

[Squiggy]

Where did you find that last one, I love those things!!

 

[Squiggy]

Thats a good stereogram Scanty. I like those too. I use to make my own for wallpapers but haven't done it in a long while.

greenie, I assume you were looking for a link to stereograms. These are good ones...

My kids have a couple of those books, I've never been able to see the pictures in them.

I've never had a problem unless it was made poorly. I just focus deeper and deeper into the patern which basically diminishes the overall focus...

 

[greenfreak]

It's hard to explain how to do it also. With me, I just cross my eyes a little. Once you know how far to cross your eyes, it becomes easier to do it.

That's awesome Squig! How do you make those?

You should do that one in teal for the OTC logo.
