Damn astigmatisms
I think I'll sue you for teasing me with these damn things. Thought they'd have gone away by now.

Hello
I used to love these when I was a child. I even have a couple of books somewhere....
Does anyone have a program that will take normal pictures and make these?
Thanks,
Steve.

Focus
beyond the picture.... If you're looking at your screen, imagine focussing your eyes on something behind your monitor, the wall or whatever.
Then just continue staring - eventually it will come through.

I find going cross eye'd then letting eyes slowly come back into line usually makes it appear...

lol at unclebuck
yeah they are unreal when you get them.
If you go on one of the magic eye websites it gives some hints on how to see them.
Personally I also favour the 'going slightly cross eyed' technique
, not properly cross eyed just do it a tiny amount so the picture goes out of focus.

I can see them, but most of the time can't work out what it is

Just relax...don't try to "force" anything to appear. Relax your eyes and either go slightly cross eyed or focus beyond your screen and eventually something will appear.
The 3D one is

I can do them if they're on paper, but I can't see them on a screen.

best method for learning, is put a sheet of glass infront of the picture. Then just keep on staring at your reflection. Your eyes will eventually start to blur/ just let them do it. Eventually you will see the picture.
What most people do though, is when the eyes start to blur, they squint/try and adjust the eye and thus u have to do the whole process again
