A lot of people can't get those 3d magic eye things to work. and to you I say, sorry. but if you can see them, you can make your own using a text editor! Wordpad works best, but notepad works too if you change the font.

First, you type a bunch of different big, capital letters, leaving one or two spaces between each one. Two spaces will give you more flexibility, but one space gives you a better image. Big letters like "M" are better than small letters like "I". Making them bold helps too. The font doesn't matter much, but it works best with variable width fonts like Arial or Times New Roman. You should have 8 to 10 characters. It's best to have no repeats, but you can have one or two repeats if you want. For example:

Q W E R S G H M

Now, copy and paste these letters to form a line five or six units long. Your image will be one unit shorter than your line. For example:

Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M

Now make a bunch of lines of this. Your picture will be that high. For example:

Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H MQ W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M
Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M Q W E R S G H M

If you know how to view those magic eye pictures, do that now to the letters. You should see those same letters now, but they should look like they're sunk into your computer screen. A few of the letters will stand out though. Do you see them?

If you don't know how to view them, the trick is to try to look past the screen, so that what you see separates into two images, one for each of your eyes. Then try and get the letters in the two images to line up. The letters should all line up at once, and when they do, it should look like they're sunk into your computer screen.

Anyway, once you're proficient at maintaining this illusion, try and edit the text, by adding and removing spaces. Deleting a space should make a unit of letters jump forward, while adding a space should make them sink back. Edit each line, treating the letters like pixels in your image. Sometimes though, you might have to delete more than one space to get it to look like you want, and this is where having two spaces between each letter can really help.

You will notice that as you edit the line to look like you want, it changes the way the rest of the line looks. That's normal, just go along the line, and keep editing it to look like you want. Do this for each line, until you have your picture. That's it! It can take a LOT of practice before you can edit your picture and look at it in 3D mode at the same time. When you're done, you can trim letters off the end of each line, as you like. Here's my picture, can anyone tell what it is?

I'd really like to see if anyone else is able to do this. So far no one else I know can. One thing to note though; if you want to post your picture, you will need to use the replace tool to replace every double space with " i". That's a space, followed by a white i. For some reason, double spaces don't work here.

If anyone's interested, I can try and explain how it works later.
