# put your nose
right on the screen and go cross eyed. It sort of goes 3D

# Like hell it does
If it was intended for 3D then Id get some glasses for that...not put my face on the screen like a spacker...no offense

# sit about a foot from the monitor
cross your eyes so the image lines up

or, custom-make a stereoscope to fit each of the images, and look through that.

# Oh yeah I forgot about that
*Looks for the sterioscope I made for occasions where I may need one*

# well, if you don't want to do the latter,
go with the former.

if you don't want to do either, you can't experience the magic of the picture, and you have no grounds for complaint.

EDIT: do you know how to cross your eyes?

# I can cross my eyes
But if I dont see it like other people dont see it then whats the problem?
EDIT: its a double image for both scenes anyway so where does the sterioscope thing come into it?

# In photoshop
overlaying one image against the other, one of them has been skewed or rotated...but sadly it still doesn't work for me either... you must have funny eyes dude! =)

# They are not identical images.
They are screen shots taken from two different points of view just like your eyes see two different points of view.

The amount you cross your eyes is about the same as looking at something up close. You just need to control how much by lining up the pics to form a 3rd image between the original two. Practice a little and when you get it it will pop out at you.

Not to mention that the resolution gets extremly clear because of the combined images.

# I wish I could see it
I CAN see those other 3d type 'magic eye' pics, but not this one.

# Ah right..Sorry guys
I admit I didnt try the photoshop bit. But in eye terms I didnt see the illusion. Sorry. No offense obviously. Just didnt work for me :-S

# if you're doing it properly, the image in your head should look something like this:
img.photobucket.com/albums/v122/barnaclese/stereoeyesexample.jpg

but the middle image shouldn't be blurry, as you only look at about 3 degrees at a time, so the image, like in real life, lines up with anything you're focusing on or anything just as far away, but things that are closer or farther away don't line up. your brain rights this and determines how deep objects are relative to what you're looking at.

# But why?
You have 3 images of differing brightness/contrast...and slightly differing angles. Maybe if it was through a stereoscope Id see it but when its onscreen I doubt it. Sorry!

# I have a 19" monitor..

# i sized it down; this is just an example. it doesn't work on a two-dimensional medium unless there are actually two separate pictures.
what i'm illustrating with this picture i've posted is how much you should cross your eyes.

you should cross your eyes so that the middle image lines up like that.

# Sorry..
Just doesn't work on my screen/eyes.

If it did you could write a book and make more pics and get rich! Woo!
