Really cool if you've never seen it before. Check the first link for how to do it and then check the second link and scroll down a little bit for an awesome picture to try it out on. Hope you like it

Kind of works, not that spectacular here though.

I think you can't quite be doing it right unless you can look at it without effort and have a sense of depth and be able to look at different parts of the picture without de focusing. I wish I could find more artwork to do it with but I spose it's as simple as saving the image, making it smaller and then putting it in double side to side.

Ahh right, not so simple then. It's up the artist then to make them?

Jotun, I didn't realise Youtube supported it also! That is really incredible and strangely easier to keep the focus on.

I found out how to make them quite simply with photoshop. Get an image and duplicate it. Then crop them both to the same area that you want but have the left image more cropped to the right. Put side by side they then work quite well

Yeah for years and years even back to the early 20th century I think but I don't think many people know about it.
