That is not an animated image. It is your eyes messing with you. 8O

Wow. 8O
I've seen things like that, but nothing that extreme. That's really freaky....

That's awesome. It really seems that they are spinning/moving. Interesting sometimes what they eyes think they see.

I had to print it to prove to myself that it really was not animated.

That's awsome. I always thought it was weird that you mind can trick you into thinking that somthing is there/moves when it isn't. I love illusions.

What kind of printer did you use, out of curiosity? I love how this is actually a picture of a book that you can buy, yet the effect largely remains the same. (Surf the parent site, if you're interested -- there's a lot more visual tricks there. My officemate actually found a buy link and has ordered one of the books...)

We have a lexmark color laser (not sure of the model) at my office.

Here is a gif that does the same thing. Again, this is not animated. You can download it to an animaged GIF editor and see it only has one frame.

Tons and tons of illlusions (http://sirius.kashmoney.net:81/~akash/illusions/). But some of these are actually animated gifs.
