Read the instructions carefully, I originally thought this was one of those "focus on the black not the white" games, but in fact it's slightly different.

Aye, I've seen this before. You end up seeing a bloke with a long beard and long hair. I'm sure he drinks in the Corporation on a Saturday night.

Seen this before too. Something to do with what your eye's pick up when focusing so hard on the 4 dots.
Not freaky... just science!

Very good but it took a while to rid the image from my eyes, i went into the kitchen and it was still there with me.

I think I just met Mr.Jesus Christ!!! I've played games like this before there cool. Have you seen or heard about the one when you look at a spiriling circle then look at you hand on which you use your mouse and your skin looks to be moving? That is really freaky! Its on the net somewhere,

WOW that is freaky.
I have seen a few of these things around but that is the first one that has really worked on me.
This is naff! yes, it's a bloke with a beard. I realised this even before I attempted to make myself permanently cross-eyed.
Copy the image into an image editor, invert it (black <> white) and you'll see what it is...
If people are gullible enough to find this interesting, I have a couple of overseas timeshares that are going cheap... ;)

Gullible?
What Untruth is being peddled here?
But not many people experiment with persistence of vision, and in that light I believe it is interesting. No one is fooled into thinking it is actually george harrison appearing to them.
I tried making a few myself - and it's not as easy as it looks. It's a gadget, a thing you try once or twice and then show it to your friends because they may not have seen it.
Gullible doesn't feature.
