CTG had a few months ago an avatar that was an optical illusion.
For all those who like it, check this page : http://www.journaldunet.com/science/attention-les-yeux-illusions/attention-les-yeux-illusions.shtml 8)
Damn this kills eye.
20 different ones (click on small images above the main one).
Yes, some really give headaches.
Great site Krys. I really like these things!
Some other optical illusions, body-painting based :
The wall, not by Pink Floyd. ;D

An optical illusion possible to make in real life !
Not an illusion image like this well-known image (http://img151.imageshack.us/img151/2066/parallel6zj.jpg), a REAL object that YOU and ME can create !

You don't believe me ? Proof here (http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5639/2020/400/800px-Lattenkiste_c.jpg) !
A nice dynamic illusion.
Watch the image without fixing the cross, you see that pink dots are stopping one after another in anti-clockwise order.
Then close one eye and fix the cross with the opened eye.
1st effect : disappearing pink dot (so it means grey part) becomes a green dot ! ???
2nd effect after a few seconds : all pink dots disappear and only the moving green one remains !!! :o
I love that one. :D

Did you forgot to put the link to the ilussion, or were you just commenting on an ilussion you remembered having seen?
Oh damn ! I forgot to put the link of the illusion I was talking about, lol !
Here it is : http://www.jp-petit.com/Inclassable/Illustrations/illusion_dynamique.gif (I put there the link also as sometimes animated gifs seems not to be animated with SMF forum, don't know why).
(http://www.jp-petit.com/Inclassable/Illustrations/illusion_dynamique.gif)
Which color is darker ? The one of the top element or the one of the bottom one ?
(http://bp3.blogger.com/_cxmptAPYR-s/Rp_LsvPQW4I/AAAAAAAABRk/sDiHFn1QwIw/s400/advanced+checkers.jpg)
Copy and paste colors from both elements in a new blank image and you'll be surprised : bottom one is darker than top one !
Same kind of illusion : "black" letters are lighter than "white" letters.

Proof :

To conclude this kind of illusion, here is the best one :
(http://www.jp-petit.com/Inclassable/Illustrations/Illusion_optique2.jpg)
A and B are THE SAME COLOR ! :o
Take the color of A and create a link from A to B and you'll get this :

Look this image for 20 seconds and you'll see a giraffe.

You can see this if you squint, and try really hard. Funny shape...

Actually that staircase goes from the basement to the ground floor... But is that up or down? When you come from the ground floor, it goes down, but when you come from the basement, it goes up. When you are in the middle of it, like Zak on the picture, it goes both up and down! Is the answer connected to the amount of time Dark Chaser will be away?

I don't know where the stairs go, but Zak is going down for sure! :D

Yep, goal was to climb with the shortest number of "jumps". :D
So Zak won, is he the tallest or he maybe has long arms?
I'm simply the best in stunts ;)

Both. And longer legs too. :D
And who was the photographer? ::) 8)
Hybrid pictures, really amazing... Try to watch them from different distances or just with a small wink to see it fuzzy...
