Handy image to tell if you are viewing Cross View or Parallel View.
Be advised, Parallel view Magic Eye images are the most popular here. For Crossview content, check out /r/CrossView. or /r/MagicEye_CrossView.

Text-only Autostereogram Creator:
Magic Eye images, more generically known as stereograms, became a wild hit in the 1990's. A stereogram might be described as an image within an image, where the second image requires the eyes to focus behind the image as opposed to on it.
While technique differs, many seem to agree that some combination of crossing your eyes (not entirely though, remember you're trying to look past the image, not at a point between the image and you), letting your eyes go unfocused, and getting your nose all up in the image's business assists in determining what the hidden image is. Once you do find the hidden image, don't get too excited and try to focus on it, or you'll likely lose it and have to start over!

All this time, and I never realized that the banner is, in fact, a real MagicEye as well.

Instructions say look through the image. Does that mean seeing through it with your non dominant eye so that you can see behind the image? I can never see minds eye images in both parallel and crossview forms. Does anybody have any suggestions?
Edit: I forgot that all the patterns repeat. So crossing your eyes and connecting the doubled pattern with each pattern will eventually lead to figuring out which one is correct

Three Little Kittens Lost Their Mittens 🐱 Hidden image/object array stereogram. When the 2 dots at the bottom become 3, you're focusing correctly.

MagicEye images created with AI
Has anyone tried using Midjourney or other image AI to make a working MagicEye? I'm not a subscriber.

Trying to find a Magic Eye picture I saw years ago of a dragon launching a fireball
When I was much younger, probably in the early to mid 90's, I was at the supermarket and there was someone selling Magic Eye pictures in front of the supermarket. In normal vision it had a mostly red jumble and a fireball falling downwards towards a corner. When I relaxed my vision a great big fearsome dragon appeared from the magic eye jumble and the fireball was being launched from its mouth. I barely got a good look at it before my family dragged me away for whatever reason and I never saw that art again. Has anyone seen it before? - I would love to see it again.

Quick question
I’m new to this, and was just wondering how detailed the images are supposed to be?

Cross-eyed vs free-viewing?
I can’t tell whether I’m crossing my eyes or splitting em. Every time I do it, both cross eyed images and magic eyes snap pretty fast, but I sometimes feel like I’m doing the other. How can you tell which one it is?

Is there any depth map generator out there?
I’m looking for a fast and easy way to generate depth maps so I can make some of these stereograms but all the ones I find are weird and have endless paragraphs of what to do. Looking for one that’s simple and easy

I’m having trouble
I was able to all these things fine yesterday, but now everything is blurred. Like, I can see the shape of whatever the image is, but I can’t focus on it without it disappearing. I don’t know what changed. How do I make it so that I can actually look at the image?
