        I only started being able to see them a few months ago. Maybe the trick you haven’t heard is that , you know sometimes you can purposefully get double vision when you stare at the wrong distance ? try doing that when you look at the picture.

        Try the one that says “wishing this for everyone”, its really easy, it turns into an obvious peace symbol.

        It took me weeks and lots of headaches. Also, I can’t see the ones in this post either. 🤷‍♂️

          It disappears when the image is scaled (like many lemmy interfaces do). Make sure you look at the plain image without zooming.

        I don’t, either. I think the prescriptions for my two eyes are so far out of sync that my brain isn’t good at putting together information from both eyes at once. I’ve got a distance eye and a close-in eye.

        Yeah, I don’t see shit. Not even on the “easy” ones. I guess my brain just doesn’t bend that way.

        I never could see the images either. I tried unfocusing my eyes and crossing them, everything people say to try, but it never worked. A friend of mine has one that is framed with a sheet of glass in front. The trick he taught me was don’t look at the picture and to focus on my own reflection in the glass. I did that and I saw dinosaurs! It was the very first time I ever saw one of these work.

        I still can’t see the one in this post though. I need the pane of glass to see my reflection to get it to work lol

          Oh now that makes sense! You would defocus of the painting and it comes in. Now to find one in glass to test this out, thats gonna be a challenge!

            Any reflective surface should make it work, so if you see one framed give it a try. Hope it works for you because it was really cool when I saw it for the very first time.

              I’m gonna see if I can pull this off, I too would like to see the picture considering 30+ years of reacting just like William in Mall Rats…

                I totally get it! I couldn’t see any of them until I was in my mid 30s after years of not seeing anything. It’s pretty cool when you finally see it for the first time ☺️

        Let your eyes go out of focus and go a little crossed the slowly bring them back into focus until the image has depth. Once you master holding the half unfocused part then you will start to see an outline. Then hold it as long as you can so you can figure out what it is.
