ILLUSIONS! Don't look if you are photo-sensitive.

[CheezeFlixz]

ILLUSIONS! I always been a big fan of illusions and some are simple and some are downright strange. The Calm/Angry face a few down is really wild. So without further ado, here a few ... post some good ones if you've got them.

LOOK AT THE BLACK CROSS ALL THE TIME!

Did you see the green dot rotating? It's not there.

Again look at the middle.

Are they rotating opposite one another? No they're not.


This ones a little tricky ...
If you look at the images below from your seat in front of the computer, Mr. Angry is on the left, and Mr. Calm is on the right. Get up from your seat, and move back 10-12 feet or so, and they switch places.


Did you see it change?

The squares marked A and B are the same shade of gray.


PROOF ... By joining the squares marked A and B with two vertical stripes of the same shade of gray, it becomes apparent that both squares are the same.

Ive seen the angry face one before, very weird! no idea how/why that happens...

The second one never works for me. I've seen it before, and it never appears to me as if either are rotating.

Thes second one works constantly for me. I don't even have to look in the middle or even focus hard.

I'm with Ghouck I could not get the second one to work for me either.

The thing about the squares is nonsense, they are different.

Have y'all seen any examples of '3D Sidewalk Art'?

When viewed from a certain point the illusions are incredible:







Here's how it's done:









Here's some more examples:

nope....they are the exact same shade of grey. put your hands up to the screen and try to cover up everything except those 2 squares, you will see they are the same

They still look the same, sorry.
It's probably just me.

No they're not, I just checked it out in Photoshop, they're the same color. If you make an image similar to the second one in photoshop, it looks like the vertical bars are a different color than either square, but if you zoom in real close, that illusion goes away.
