This is a cool picture

they can be a little tough at first.... sounds funny, but you cant look for the image... you just kinda have to let your eyes drift a bit until the focus in on it..
after a while, it's automatic... I love those things
 
this is right off of magiceye.com:
"Magic Eye images can be easier to see if viewed on paper rather than a computer screen. If possible, print out this image and follow the instructions below. (You don't need to print in color).
Instructions:
Hold the printed Magic Eye image RIGHT UP TO YOUR NOSE and STARE through it as if looking off into the distance. The image will be blurry, try not to blink. Move the page VERY SLOWLY away from your face until the two circles above the image turn into three. If you see four circles continue to move the image away from your face until you see only three circles. At this point hold the image still until the 3D illusion slowly comes into focus and the hidden object magically appears! In this example the hidden image is the planet Saturn. The longer you look, the deeper and clearer the hidden Magic Eye image will become. Good Luck!"
me personally, all I have to do is look at it and focus accordingly. After you've done it once or twice, you know how to adjust your eyes.. .it's strange.
 
Hmph... Maybe I'll give it another try. It was frustrating as a child because all my friends could see it and I could not.
:mad:

Aren't they supposed to pop out. They all indent for me...makes it really tough to figure out what it is. Maybe I just have crazy eyes. How I do it is just kinda look at it cross-eyed. Or you can get really close to the image and focus on it and slowly move back. But then again, maybe this is why it indents and doesn't pop out.
 
oops forgot the image they were referring to
this one is the planet saturn..
keep trying guys, believe me... once you get it, it'll be easy.
 
gotta let your eyes drift a bit... thats the best way I can explain it. The picture should blur before you see anything.. before you know it, it'll sharpen up with the 3-d image before you.
