Two Methods:

There are two methods which may be used to get the stereo effect:

• Cross Your Eyes:

  While looking at the Stereo Page, stare at a pen, or finger, held up half way between your eyes and the screen. Keep gazing at the pen while allowing the screen image to form a stereo image. This takes time. You may have to very slowly move the pen slightly closer or slightly further away to find the correct focus.

• Gaze Through the Screen:

  If the above method fails try this. While looking at the Stereo Page, select a prominent pair of identical colored objects near the middle. Approach so that your nose almost touches the screen. Move so that one eye is forced to look through one of the colored objects while the other eye looks through the identical neighbour. After a while, these two images fuse to form one image. Very slowly back away while keeping the images fused.

Wow!

Whichever method you use, there is no doubt at all when you see it!   "Wow!" is a common reaction; an exciting field of objects fills your screen floating at different levels.

Set Your Browser Window:

When you get to the Stereo Page, set your browser to the maximum size so that it fills your screen. Even better, close any browser navigation areas at the side or the top to give you the maximum viewing area.

Set Your Display Resolution:

These images were prepared for desktop or laptop computers with the display set to the highest resolution, i.e., objects appear small. If the pairs of objects are too far apart it will be impossible to use the Gaze Through method and it may be harder to use the Crossed Eyes method as well.
