Ugh, there's some people out there who cannot see these. Not for a lack of trying, I've personally been trying since the 90s.

- wkat4242 2y agoIt took me a while too. Especially those double images that look totally contorted and only come out when you relax your focus. It took ages but suddenly they popped and now i can do them every time. Once they came through they were crystal clear.
- kookster310 2y agoThe trick for me was to completely cross my eyes and produce the double images, then slowly uncross/cross them until I could start to see the image, which eventually clears up.
- stewarts 2y agoI am with you. I could also never see the hidden image things. Been trying for 40 years.
- dist-epoch 2y agoDo you manage to align the two small white squares above each picture so they are on top of each other?
- moultano 2y agoYes.
- tantalor 2y agoThere are two communities, you need to find out which one you belong to. https://www.reddit.com/r/CrossView https://www.reddit.com/r/CrossView https://www.reddit.com/r/ParallelView https://www.reddit.com/r/ParallelView There is a test image you can try: https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fg5ilwgk99r781.jpg https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fg... Whichever "view" looks to be closer is the one you should use.
- StevenNunez 2y agoI don't think I understand what the image is supposed to do. I can only see from one eye at a time.
- alistairSH 2y agoI don't get it... the reddit image is the same on both sides. Trying to look at it cross-eyed just gives me a headache. "Foreground text describes viewing type" - there is no foreground, it's just text on a page?
- dividuum 2y agoIt’s not the same. They are slightly different and depending on whether you cross-eye or parallel view them, both texts will slightly move away or towards you in 3D.
- alistairSH 2y agoMy eyes must be broken, I don't see that at all.
- AndrewStephens 2y agoI have always had trouble with magic-eye pictures - I am told my eyes are quite different shapes. I can see stereograms with some effort. I believe that there is a small percentage of the population for whom stereoscopic images (including 3d films) just don't work at all. Either they lack the ability to perceive depth directly or their brains aren't fooled by images with no parallax relative to their eye movements. I don't have any cites for this though.
- cromulent 2y agoAmblyopia and monocular diplopia here. No way I can see these, my brain won't let me.
- smusamashah 2y agoHave you tried using pipes/kitchen towel rolls? As in, try doing something like this: 1. Zoom the images small enough to be almost parallel to your eyes. 2. Make a binocular out of used kitchen rolls. 3. Each side should look at exactly one of the images It should just work. Both images should converge like they do in a binocular. (you can then try removing this DIY binocular suddenly and see if you can maintain focus)
- nightpool 2y agoPresumably that would only work for the wall-eyed (diverging) images given at the bottom of the screen, the cross-eyed (converging) images given throughout most of the article wouldn't work with this technique.
- DamnInteresting 2y agoI made a stereogram a few years back that turned out to be unusually easy for people to view. Perhaps you'll have luck with it: https://www.damninteresting.com/temp/damn-interesting-stereogram.jpg https://www.damninteresting.com/temp/damn-interesting-stereo... The trick is to focus normally on the image, then move your focus to be a few inches behind your screen, as if you're looking through it at something behind.
