Flipping Panels Illusion
November 25, 2006 by Vurdlak
You'll probably laugh when you see this picture below, just like I did. It is so simple, yet it hides a double meaning beneath it's surface. The question submitter of this illusion (Doug Thomas) gave us is to find out which of the panels are folded toward the viewer, and which are folded away? I know you are used to colorful, real life photos, but this one is good optical illusion as well, admit it or not... Doug said: "Here is an illusion that I think has been around forever. However, maybe you haven't seen it yet. Don't be too hasty to answer the skill testing question I gave. I enjoy your illusions immensely." For more illusions of this type check: accidental financial, circles or spiral, jazz musician, going up illusion, 3D heart stencils, people trapped inside a wall...

Lol... they are all flipped toward the viewer if you look hard enough.
nice illusion
I always enjoy this illusion, even though I already know it.
I start looking at it and after a while what is folded inside suddenly turns outside and what is folded outside turns inside. It's fun!
none of them
Im third again!
this illusion is super cool. i dont think that its possible to figure out.
none of them are it is just rhombuses
illusions like this are always fun cause they always switch around!!! haha. thanks doug!
You are all wrong. The answer is: All of them.
Every single panel is turned towards you at one end at least, no matter which way you look at it.
Wither the bottom of the panel or the top will ALWAYS be turned towards. Meaning every time you see it, it is turned towards you.
i also think it is all of them.
only panerls one and 4
They're all flat, silly...its 2D.
Cool though, I draw these all the time, they look really nice when you colour it in to look like a folded chess board
nice
They all are, if you look at it right. :o!!!
OMG!
The blinds in my house have this pattern on it and when i am sick in bed, I spend all day just starting and the curtain allusion I which I never knew was an allusion up until a few seconds ago when I exclaimed,
