I like 'It’s a circle, honest!' and 'Swimmers, Eels and other Gradient-Gradient Illusions' best.

Oh great, now I have a migraine!

Those illusions crashed my computer. Would it be a bit rude to say that the illusions weren't actually that great?

many nice ones, the winner is amazing in its simplicity. I always loved this one: unfrickinbelievable.

ps: the non "forum cropped" one works way better.

Most of them aren't exactly fantastic, but they're all of some interest I think.

I'm glad that there's an Optical Illusion of the Year contest.

Glad your computer got back online OK.

I see I've caused a migraine and a crashed computer, within a matter of minutes. I will edit the first post.

Are we talking about that woman's breasts, or that guy's suit? Neither are especially believable.

I likde the look of the guy on the left gawping at those fake hooters - the Breast Inspector is in town.
