How to see a stereogram. The stereogram tricks your eyes into believing that an object stands out. To cooperate you must diverge your eyes (seeing double) as if looking through the screen at some distant object, and try to visually fuse the two dots at the top of the screen into a third. If you can keep your focus and look down, the pattern will fall back, revealing a design, object, or word. These are not uncommon. If you need help, ask a friend. Because of the shapes of some monitors, the background is irregularly shapes, not smooth. - Andy Jennings
