Edit: Here's what was just sent in! Goeken helped with his explanation: "I could not get it to work under Firefox but once I loaded it in IE it worked". So open Internet Explorer, load this website, click on the image below to open it full size, and then when you highlight it, PERFECT image of Bill Gates will accur! Thanks Goeken!

    I could not get it to work under Firefox but once I loaded it in IE it worked

    That's because IE has this grid-like selection thingy, while Firefox just places a 50% transparent layer over the picture.

    it doesn't work unless you click on the image for full size.

    the way it works has something to do with the nature of highlighting on IE. IE uses tiny grey dots when you highlight a pic. therefore, the picture of Bush is simply constructed of only dots in the same position that they are located in the highlight. Firefox doesn't highlight in the same pattern, so it doesn't work.

    I could see it, and I'm using Mozilla Firefox. I didn't even need to highlight it.

    Thanks alot for the after shot its soo kool in a weird and freaky way oh well

    First off, it only works in fullsize because you are highlighting the picture, when its smaller like on the webpage it is an html code that you highlight. Second, yes it is a gif, but that is because there are two images superimposed on one another... Stop trying to sound smart you idiots.

    BTW nice job on this illusion!

    BTW I go by Steve O, i just didnt feel like making a profile considering all i wanted to do was show how ignorant you HATERS are that do nothing but "dis" everyones work... Like you have done anything as creative like this ever! besides the macaroni pictures you made in kindergarden!

    Oh and if it was rigged as a gif, it would work in any browser.
