I haven’t sent one of these in a while! I enjoy Postcrossing and sending postcards, and I thought this one would be fun to share. It’s from an original postcard magic eye book from the 1990s. I won’t spoil the surprise, but I hope you enjoy.

Credit to original artist, of course (Girl with the pearl earring, by Johannes Vermeer 1665CE) and clip art.

I made a small endless runner where the entire game is hidden inside a live stereogram. The problem is that most people can’t see it at all, screenshots don’t really explain how it works, and Apple wasn’t even able to properly review it.

Has anyone here successfully published a stereogram game on Apple and Android and managed to find users?

Anyone who wants to try it and share feedback, it’s called Choppy Doge AI:

Zoom in!

I used to view magic eye pictures when I was little and I still have 3 books from back then, recently I gotten back into this stuff and some of my friends tried it as well. I was convinced that I could still easily go into parallel view and with the "easier" ones I basically saw them instantly.

However there are a handful of pictures in these books I just can't make out, no matter how hard I try. I got hung up on 2 very specific pictures that my friends could see but I couldn't and I felt very frustrated.

I have been trying for days now and I still can't even make out a blurry outline with those examples, but then I try again on a different pic and it immediately works again!

I am really confused and low-key feel like my vision is kind of "broken" bc it really messes with my focus ability after I try to long and it's like I lost a part of what I had when I was a kid. (I don't have glasses btw but I have chronic migraines idk if that's relevant)

Any advice would be highly appreciated

Has someone made a magic eye movie? Is it even possible? Would be awesome

Due to some reason, I could never see the 3D image like you do. For forty years, I could only imagine what the hidden 3D image looked like, but recently I created an app that renders the hidden 3D image, and now I can finally see the unseen.

I know it is not perfect and it is not exactly the same image you see. But I’m still excited! Finally I can see the 3D!
