Update 11/27/2008 – Sorry everyone, I knew nothing about this image, nor what it represents. Official apology has been posted here.
I found an interesting picture today, while browsing the endless internet. It was marked as an “optical illusion“, but I could see nothing that would justify this name. What is so special about black and white lines? Nothing I guess. But then I saw it – It’s awesome! This would be some cool way to hide secret messages and information. Maybe we are not even aware that this could be some highly sensitive information government or army lost by accident? You never know. Can you spot the illusion it holds? I’m sure you can, just don’t give up! I’d really like to hear what you see, since I’m not exactly positive.

ok guys, i think with 83 COMMENTS we have established WHAT it is… what i’m interested in is the illusion… isn’t that what this site is about? how did they get an image just with black and white lines? though the image itself isn’t, i think the actual illusion is pretty amazing.
Wow that is absolutely amazing! How did they get the image to appear in just those lines?
Wow….it amazes me how few people know who Pedobear is, and it amazes me even more how many people comment on how it’s a “loony toon” (which saddens me enough), but post that despite the pages of comments about who Pedobear is. Wow. That’s hilarious– this just made my night. Thanks for the apology btw, unneeded as the people that would care are those that would never have heard of Pedobear anyway, but professionalism like that is rare nowadays.
it’s a teddy bear!!!
i think i saw a bear.
i’m not quite sure
Seems like an astronaute to me. not a bear…
it looks like a ninja turtle slightly fatigued http://www.wheelsontrack.com
As i was reading your caption i saw the picture with the corner of my eye, and saw a very obvious giant shadow. i wondered why everyone else had trouble seeing it, and did i have super powers? then i looked directly at it, and couldn’t see it at all. damn, no superpowers
PedoBear
it is easy to see just move back to the left or right (look for a teddy bear)
its a bear, either squint your eyes, or back away from the computer

its a bear. Back away from the screen and youll see it
its pedo bear!!!!!
I get 2 effects,
1. i see pedobear.
2. when you stare this for about 20 seconds and then watch wall, it is kinda… waird
if you use your click wheel (or whatever it is you use to scroll a page) and scroll up and down very quickly you can see the bear more easily. the color and inside details are easier to see when doing this
pedobear. -facepalm-
try staring through the image
Great, thanks for the seizures and headaches!
I did not see it at first. I had to back up a good 6 feet from my monitor. It looks like a teddy bear walking…or some other stuffed animal…thanks for the challenge it was fun

3. Zoom out all the way and take a screenshot.

squint ur eyes a little and boom PEDO-BEAR
So cool! Pedobear!
Lulz its pedobear. You kinda trip out if you stare at it for too long though. @_@
How can you not see that immediately, it’s so obvious.
WOW! when you look at it for a while you get lots of letters walking across the page too fast to read. I also see teddy bear
that is so cool! i put it on paint and started to move it and i saw a Japanese bear!

Oh, Pedobear. You’re everywhere I go.
Wait.

Pedobear =OO
i think im blind now. but i saw more of a dinosaur than a bear.
PEDO BEAR RUN FOR YOUR LIFE
i saw pedobear looking like a zombie ( the eyes)
can’t believe it’s actually pedobear. really! really!? puting pedobear into art was the best they could do…. well…. good job then. (thumbs up)
For people that cant see it, drag the image up and down. U can faintly see pedobear veering from the middle to the right… so basically on the right side.
i cant tell what it is but it fades in and out
HOly Sh. it’s pedobear. HAHAHAH
i see a pedophile
it looks like pooh bear with a weird pumpkin face. meh.
great news for mystery shoppers
k this kinda freackeed me out but whateve’ anyways yeah i agree with the first comment i see a bear running when you look at a wall after staring at it for 20 sec your vision is blurry and then i also found that when you star at it for 30 sec (no blinking) the image starts to disapper
Pedobear. All you have to do is move back from the screen a bit.
I can’t believe theres still some people who don’t recognize Pedobear D: Oh well, its an old meme anyway.
O_O HIDE THE KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!
Go far back from your monitor and you’ll see it.
try standing taller then your laptop/computer then you can see the bear
LMFAO i didnt see it at first and i looked down 2 the touch pad and notices a slite discoloration,were it was just a lil darker in a spot,so,i tilted my screen down and up 2 see if i was imagining it,i noticed it again,so i picked up my laptop and tilted it down,and,there it was :D
LMAO pedobear XD
if you didnt see it…walk away from the screen and you’ll see it
PEDOBEAR!
HOLY SHIT pedobear lol If you can vibrate your eyes that works well
lmfao pedobear!!!!
PIKACHU COMING YOUR WAY
WOW, when i crossed my eyes a bit i saw some figure on the right side, cool!!
If you wear glasses/contacts and take them off, or if you can make your eyes blurry he appears way better.
LMAO! Cross your eyes a little bit and you’ll see him. That’s so cool!
