Which way is the wheel spinning? With practice you can make it change directions!

Stare at the middle, and the yellow dots will gradually disappear. Can you get rid of them all?

Yomamasofat · December 2010

It's spinning very fast counter-clockwise

Close your left eye and stare at the cross. As the circle moves left and right, it should pass through your blind spot and disappear completely! You may need to lean in closer to get this to work.

Move your head around this image. The blue and green color fields will appear to move and change size.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

The cowboy's silhouette makes sense with two different interpretations. Can you flip it back and forth?

It goes both ways. Like a bisexual

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

As the small circles intersect with the large ones, we seem to see the outlines of a growing and shrinking square. But there is no "square" -- your brain is trying to visualize in terms of solid shapes, and fills in the blanks.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

The blue ovals seem to move, but this is a still image.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Stare at the red dot long enough, and the grey stripes will disappear.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Believe it or not, these lines are straight and parallel.

These "fish" may appear to be wiggling, but the only thing changing in this animation is the color.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Stare at the center of this simple animation and you'll be convinced you're seeing a green circle moving around the edge. But are you?

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Lean up close to your monitor. What does this image say?
Try stepping back a few feet. What does it say now?

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Try moving your mouse pointer down across this image, following the pointer closely with your eyes. You should see a rippling effect moving through the picture -- even though it's a completely static image!

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

What appears to be a gaping chasm in the middle of the street...

Mind uploading all the ones you have and sending to me?Baws.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Believe it or not, this image is not animated. The effect persists only in your peripheral vision; if you focus on any one of the spirals, it will stop moving.

SooperPickle · December 2010

Well now my eyes hurt >.<

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Are the walls of this house facing outward, or inward?

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Another "false spiral" -- actually a series of concentric circles, hard as it may be to believe. To prove that there's no spiral, try tracing your finger around one of the circles. You'll see that it Learn Why
never moves inward or outward.

Can you unweave this web and find the hidden word within it?

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Stare at the lobster's eyes long enough, and the dish will seem to repair itself.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Although this image is not animated, the tessellated tiles will appear to spin if you stare at them long enough.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Can you guess the identity of the faces here? The human brain is remarkable at recognizing extremely low-resolution images.

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

Another pixelized face. Can you guess who it is?

aPimpNameKirby · December 2010

To discover what is hidden, attentively fix the 4 black spots on the center during 30 seconds, then click on the image while looking at it.

On the white zone which appears, you should see a famous character of the History (to accentuate the effect you can close or blink eyes).

This illusion, is due to retinal persistence. Indeed, if you reverse the colors of this image, you will see very clearly this character.

When it comes to optical illusions. My fav is the magic eye. Thought it makes you look dumb sometimes.

What do you see?
I see a heart
