Hey everyone, I just drank my coffee as announced in previous post. The reason for such quick update is because I had little trouble viewing newest illusion in my Optical Illusion of The Day Yahoo Widget. Do you see this one in Google Homepage, Mac Dashboard widget or Yahoo Widget? Please comment, because I am not sure should I fix it, or it was just a glitch (like we had one before). Anyhow, this illusion below, even though simple, works really well. It was discovered by Dan Sheffield, who wrote the following:
“Hey Mr Illusion man, I hit upon this one whilst messing about in Adobe Illustrator, it’s pretty subtle – in fact I’m not sure if I’m imagining it or not. To me it looks like it’s slowly rotating. It’s simply three stars layered on top of each other with the colors (cyan, magenta, yellow) mixing to form black. Thanks for the fantastic site, I love it.”

I noticed that usually from the Mac widget I get directly linked to the specific illusion it shows. This time my click-thru led me to the main MOI page, not this specific illusion’s page. Perhaps that has something to do with why it doesn’t show in the Mac widget. Just a theory.
Hi,
Do not qork in my Yahoo widget, but OK on the site (very cool by the way…)
Ur not supposed to look directly at it for it to work look at the txt or somethin and you’ll c it rotating…BTW Mac dashboard widget doesnt work ><
I got it to work!!!
I printed the page, cut out the cog, stuck a pecil through the middle and spun it around. WORKED A TREAT
first i was like what then i was like OHHHHHHH then i was like time for dinner
that thing is awesome!!! i just cant stare at it long enough to see it completely switch position… ):
to me it looks as though it is very subtly pulsating.
This is supposed to be looked at with 3D glasses.
It’s supposed to be a 3D object not a spinning cog..
wtf
