A few favorites.

Stare at the dot in the middle.

Spinning girl. Watch her spin clockwise, then counter clockwise.

2 concentric circles, one inside of the other. They never touch.

The spinning girl one didn't work for me :undecided:
 
The naked girl only spins clockwise for me...
It must be quite cold where she is spinning....:whistle:

Actually follow the spin with your eyes, by watching either her hand or leg. Took me a while to see it too, but freaky when it actually happens.

Edit, you can also use the concentric circles illusion as a primer. Look at it for a few seconds, than at the girl. Just not at the same time.

And yes... she is VERY shapely:p

Yeah that got it :) quite freaky :)

Its odd, there seems to be a "crossover" point when it starts happening quite often.

That's a better one, the lines help out a lot :)

Yeah... that's the ticket... Thanks..
But she still shows the signs of it being cold where
she is... (just the way I like them)...:D

I see her spinning counterclockwise on the right most pic...
but as soon as I switch to the center pic she is spinning
clockwise again... very strange...

I shift my eyes left and right to change the spinning motion of the girl.

Piferal I like the 2D to 3D picture. I want to make one soon.

Hey Mark, yes I like this one also, and I would see one of your drawings when you're done :beer:

Here you have this video with some very nice optical effects.



I also like this one.

If your eyes follow the movement of the rotating pink dot, the dots will remain only one color, pink.

However if you stare at the black ”+” in the center, the moving dots turns to green.

Now, concentrate on the black ”+” in the center of the picture.

After a short period, all the pink dots will slowly disappear, and you will only see only a single green dot rotating.

There really is no green dot, and the pink ones really don’t disappear :D

I especially like this one from above

This is just one of my favorites along the same line ;)

If you want to make your own, take any picture and open it in MSPAINT.
(The following may be different in the classic MSPAINT, I'm using W7 version)
Make sure you have the selection tool selected.
Then, right-click the image and click "Invert Color"
Put a little dot in the middle if you want, and save it.
Now, after staring at the same point in the picture, look at a white wall and blink a bunch.

I'll try one later today, thanks Juan.

I've done a bunch of cross eyed 3D, but it takes a while to get used to looking at it.
