Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Made this in photoshop. No particular theme, just a bunch of objects that have a pretty powerful 3D effect.

Make sure it's zoomed in to it's full size, and view it from 2-3 feet. (The brown trapezoid doesn't do anything. It's just there for reference.)

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Interesting, If my computer wasn't so old and slow then I could probably see the other half of it, (but it's ok I love my Vash yes I named my computer....) Anyways, what type of techniques are you using? -The Kateness

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Both pictures are supposed to be identical.

I guess you have absolutely no idea how stereoscopic images work.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

The pink and blue lines worked for me, but the rest didn't quite provide the illusion.

Dammit, is there no one here who knows how to view stereoscopic images?

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Did your image work for you?
I have no problem seeing these, and I know how they work because it's explained on the site.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Yes, my image works perfectly. The circles going in a spiral look awesome. I have no idea why it doesn't work for you. Try sitting farther away from it.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

The circles kind of work, but the best parts I see are the pole and the bent-line thingie. Those look good, I think the rest might look a tad odd just cuz of the colors maybe? I dunno. It works though, just some parts stick out more.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Ok, I saw it, but I had to use the glasses from the package, and zoom the image to less than 50% it's original size. Are you supposed to see it without the glasses? If so, how?

PS: Had a bad headache afterwards

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

yah, to the OP, your images are hard to see, but they do work.

I got a righteous headache afterwards though. whereas, the one that the othe guy posted worked fine for me and left my head feeling fine.

Ha, that's pretty badass man, nice work. I like the "stairs" of the circles the best.

Thanks man. Finally someone sees it.

Here's the updated pic. The biggest addition is the numbers. Somehow they make the 3D effect more intense.

For those of you who are having trouble seeing it, here's a smaller version. If you still can't see it perfectly, you're doing it wrong.

No, you didn't see it. To see it with the glasses, you would have to reverse the images (put the right one on the left and the left one on the right).

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Is one side suppose to be from one angle, and the other is from a different angle, yet in 2D?

Edit: nvm i see it, pretty cool.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

I left my tool album in the car, so i (feeling stupid) tried to make it work without the glasses... and wow if you squint, so that the two images become one (you will see 3 versions of the image), the combined image in the middle is in 3d. Although it is blurry because your squinting...

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

I have no trouble seeing the pictures but then again I'm really into stereoscopy . Any way, I'd say the picture is a bit too intense, it would be a bit easier on the eye's if the interocular distance was lessened a bit.

In any case keep up the good work!

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Hey MT, just seen this thread + to be honest i think yours work better than any of the photographic ones. The Grand Canyon had such scope but you just get a random bloke on a rock in the foreground, mebbe sumthin in the middleground (i forget, im pissed + its late) and then the canyon in the back. It looked to me like separate photos arranged at different distances, each one entirely flat. The graded shading on your numbered circles really helps them leap out of the screen, and you can let your eyes wander down the blue line as it projects towards you. Similar with the cone, although i do agree that it should perhaps be a little more subtle. Its all about tricking the mind, and i reckon doing that with photographs would involve some serious messing about in photoshop or whatever, you'd have to really enhance the interocular distance at the legs of the bloke in comparison with the head and arm. The most effective of Tool's SSIs (the fiery serpent or the semitranslucent figurent with the spiralling grey spheres + bars) work so well cuz they're abstractions of instantly recognisable images with simpler, although very well rendered, shapes reaching in and out of the page. When the effect works well it can be surprisingly (or maybe not) similar to psychedelics: i once saw (on the only occasion i've managed to get hold of powerful acid D:) a double-helical golden spiral rising up out of the floor that held its structural integrity as i moved around it

Btw, if you didn't notice that I posted the second version, it's in post #14 in this thread. The first one was unfinished.

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

MAN!
I saw how you guys where fighting about how does a stereoscopic image work.
i mean...a stereoscopic image is a image that has two diferent pictures from two diferent
angles that should be viewed by those glaces that make your eyes look at pictuers at the same time(right eye on the right picture,left eye on the left picture).so...when you look at them they are 3-d.

DUH!
-=MT=- you have my support

Re: Stereoscopic image (made by me)

Worked for me, but it was kind of hard to focus on. Usually, stereoscopic images don't give me headaches but focusing yers did.
