BakulaBabe 2 Posted January 30, 2005 This link is to "Astronomy Picture of the Day", for an inage that looks like lines of jumbled colors, but is supposed to be a picture of something. http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap050130.html I don't know what the proper name is for the image, but I NEVER see the picture that's supposed to be "hidden" in the jumbled colors! There's supposed to be a teapot here. Is this a joke or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A l t e r E g o 9 Posted January 30, 2005 It's called a "Magic Eye" image. I see the teapot and, right at the base of it, a horizontal like across the entire pic. Below the line space curves away as it moves down. How To See Magic Eye Pics Magic Eye of The Week Magic Eye Homepage Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BakulaBabe 2 Posted January 30, 2005 (edited) AAARRRGGGHHH!!! I've been trying this for several minutes, and I still can't do it! :wallbash: :lol: I wonder if my astigmatism has anything to do with it? Edited January 30, 2005 by BakulaBabe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yillara Skye 1 Posted February 5, 2005 ARRRGGGHHH! It is one of those pictures! I remember when those things were so popular a few years back. They drove me nuts because I would end up being cross-eyed after a bit of looking at them to try and see the hidden picture! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIMIMELA 1 Posted February 5, 2005 i remember going in the opticians and people asked me can i see a big circle out of a board of circles........i could see it.......this picture is nuts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spockstellaiter 0 Posted February 5, 2005 THis has something to do w/ depth perception, I can't see it because I don't have the best eyes, so if you don't have perfect eyesight you won't see it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WEAREBORG4102 0 Posted February 5, 2005 I don't have good depth perception because I'm a very little far-sighted in my right eye and myopic in my left. I can never see these things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yillara Skye 1 Posted February 5, 2005 I guess that explains it for me.. I have always had a bit of a problem with depth perception. But even with finally getting bifocals, I still have problems seeing these pics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BKY1701 0 Posted February 7, 2005 I can see SOMETHING in most of them, but I don't think it's what was intended. I see geometric patterns like lines and such. In some of them I can make out vague outlines of an image, but not the image itself. I would say try to look past the picture, rather then AT it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BKY1701 0 Posted March 21, 2005 Here is a good way to see it. Touch your 2 fingers together at the tips, put then RIGHT in front of the screen. Then do odd things with your eyes. You will start to see your fingers split into 2 sets of 2; this is good, keep doing it. Do that for as long as you can, stop, wait, and do it again, you should see it.
