Actually it's just moving your eyes so the same image overlaps itself in a different location. It's not really that special, you just have to uncross your eyes a bit, aka looking past the picture about 2-3 feet. As soon as you start "fuzzying" the 3d Eye picture as I like to say (most people blur foreground items when they are looking past it, including myself), you'll start to notice the 2 images your eyes use of the 3d Eye picture start to drift apart. At a specific point, sometimes defined in inches of difficulty (basically how far you have to offset one of the pictures to get the desired effect intended), a new, previously hidden image will take form. This image is ALWAYS 3d, and usually lacks any detail beyond the outline or the 3d shape of it closest to you (aka the roundness of an apple). However, this new experience is enough to make you go "wow" when you experience it the first few times.
The reason why this works is some programmer found a nifty way to arrange dots on a sheet of paper, and orient them so that seen by both eyes at the same point it would appear like another boring abstract picture, but if offset with both eyes, internal structure of the picture would overlap and define new structures, just as it does with reality to both eyes. To prove this to yourself, close one eye and notice that the depth of the world around you just vanishes. It becomes a 2d picture. It'll be exactly the same with the other eye.
With that said, the 3d "Magic" Eye pictures are a nifty novelty and I enjoy looking at them every so often, but as to having anything direct psychic training value I would give them maybe a 1 if they work for you in that sense (probably not). But, ya know, they really do push the limits of our physical vision.
You can even do it in text! [|)]

Virtual 3D stereographs have anything to do with psychic abilities ?
I have discovered a weird program (3d Magic 2.0), in which we have to look in a certain way to images. Well i can't explain this correctly so please check out the website of the program and use the program for more detailed explication. What i mean, is, is this something to do with psychic abilities ? As it's related to sight and the brain i think. I guess it's not anything psychic at all, but it's a bit similar to that exercice of seeing two circles to practise aura (i absolutly can't find the post where i saw that were on astral pulse) in which we have to look in a certain way... i can't yet see the hidden 3d image but they say it takes practise, does this affect any kind of practise of psychic abilities at all ? For example, when we learn to see the hidden image, we would learn better or easier to see auras or it's completly unrelated ? I say this because i think it's something related of sincronization of both brain hemispheres, but i don't understand nothing about that...
