Try imagining there's a hole in your screen where the magic eye poster is, like there's a rectangle carved right out of your monitor and you can see through it. Mess around with you depth perception accordingly and the 3-D image will eventually appear.

Alternatively print the picture out, and start by holding it close 2 ur nose, drawing it slowly away from ur face. Move it in and out and...do the hokey pokey if ur eyeballs fall out... falloff

Here's some tips:
-As stated above, try and see "through" the picture.
-Try slowly bluring your vision back and forth
-You have to be looking at it with both eyes (not one)
-keep a good distance... ie. 1 metre away (approx 3 feet)
-Try not to think about it... just be patient and try not to look too hard

The trick is to not focus on the surface of the screen, or any detail in particular.

You have to sort of zone out, get lost, and become passive.

You'll never "find" it. You have let it "happen."

still can't see it lol

MR. PITT: You said keep your eyes out of focus, which is misleading. You want DEEP focus!

ELAINE: (on phone) Yes, hi. Okay, fine, yeah, hold on just a second. Lemme just... (reaches into purse) Yeah, I've got it... (pulls out both hands completely covered in black ink) Oh! Oh! Yeah, yeah, he'll be there. (drops phone, rushes to Pitt) Mr. Pitt, you have GOT to stop staring at that poster!

MR. PITT: I see something that could be a spaceship. Is it round? Is it pointy?

ELAINE: (grabs poster, smashes it) No, you don't see it, and you're never going to see it!
