Stereogram photography is where you take 2 pictures of the same object about as far apart as human eyes are. When you place the two images next to one another and cross your eyes, a 3D image appears in the middle.

I created one to test it out and see if I could do it, and I think it works great. But every single person I've shown the image to says they don't see anything.

So, ATOT, can you see the 3D image?

1. cross your eyes so that it appears 3 images of equal size are on the screen
2. focus on center image
3. move head towards or away from monitor and it should "pop" into focus

I've seen stereograms before and I'm usually able to see them without much trouble, but yours was really, really hard to see. Took a lot of effort for whatever reason. I was able to eventually get it into focus, but you should play with a few different things to see which works best.

Gives me headaches.

It works pretty well for me, but I have to cross my eyes too far. Makes it hard to get the focus right.

In order for me to see 3 squares of equal size, and have anything 'pop' out, i have to stand back about 8' from my tiny 15" monitor. In short, I'm not close enough to see any detail, to see anything other then what the 2 seperate pictures look like.

I almost broke my damn eyes trying to see the boat! :frown:

Can't you just post one of those "Find the girl in this picture" pics? You know, with the half naked girl with the 38DD's draped over a car with various small distractions in the periphery?
