I’ve never seen one with this much depth. Pretty neat.

I don’t know how these are made, but this one is very well done

They use computers, or so I’m told.

I’m very good at magic eye. It’s a gift.

This is the first time I’ve ever been able to do one in my entire life. I’ve tried for years. It’s like I just unlocked an achievement. I now have to go dig up all my magic eye books. I will say though, I’m floored by how 3d it all looks. The depth is surprising.
Also surprised by just how easy it is to get knocked out of the illusion by just barely tilting the screen.

tbh, this is the first time I’ve seen a magic eye image that actually incorporates the imagery into the effect. Normally it’s not related

Same here. I could do the cross-eyed 3D pretty easily, but never the wall-eyed ones, until now.

Nice 3D magic eye picture

That one is so nice, are there more in that style, where it’s hidden things + cool 3d Background? The ones I usually see are only a hidden object in random noise background

I’ve never seen any one of these.

It takes practice. My elementary school had these on the bookshelves we used for indoor recess, so I spent several hours just staring and staring, hoping for something to happen. Eventually due to the boredom of the staring, my eyes defocused naturally and I saw enough of an effect to realize that was the whole trick. Then from there I tried to gain conscious control of my focus depth while adjusting the viewing distance, until finally I fully got it :)

Oh…my god. This was the first

Lovely, it took me a while until I zoomed out a little.

I never could see the bigger picture intended by these, but it’s very pretty on its own.

This is one of the better ones I’ve seen. It looks actually pretty 3D.
Make the image as large as you can on your screen while still having it all visible. I don’t recommend a phone - try it on a monitor. Don’t try to see the whole image at once - look at one small part. Play with the focus of your eyes until you start to see an edge forming - and when you do, lock onto the edge until you can see it without struggling. Just try to make the edge clearer without bothering with the larger shape yet. Once you do, it should be easier to hold the focus as you look around the image and actually pick out what shapes everything is making.
I recommend focusing on this part of the image as you start - there’s a pretty cool sea turtle there.

Hey thanks! That really helped, appreciate the time you took to explain it. :)
Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 13 hours ago
Its just a 3D version of what you see.
If you’re on mobile, open the pic in landscape mode. Put your nose to the bottom of your phone, cross your eyes and slowly pull away from the picture. It often takes a handful of tries, but eventually you will see it.
Never had that not work for someone if they cared enough to keep trying it.

Works perfectly on my phone, maybe try landscape orientation and vary the distance?

Yes!
I was going to go through the Wikimedia stereograms. Thanks for the direct link, and a ton more. (c:
