That rotating image thing is defintiely messing with my head. 67.220.5.154 (talk) 02:36, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here's how to switch: watch the chin; when it comes around closer to you, you need to reconceptualise it as on the far side. Tony (talk) 05:15, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, do we have a Wikipedia article explaining this optical illusion? I found that closing my eyes momentarily and reopening them often "reset" my brain into thinking that the image was rotating in the other direction. — Cheers, JackLee talk 08:12, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Scarily, i found the body rotating one way, the "innards" the other, at the same time. Awkward. Great image, though. Cheers, LindsayHi 08:59, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
That would make me very dizzy. You could earn lots of money as a medical subject. :-) Tony (talk) 09:02, 27 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

After staring at the rotating image for 15 minutes I looked down at the Sea Egg image and its spines started growing! -- œ 09:49, 29 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On a completely different note, I just thought that congratulations should go J Milburn for nominating an article for deletion and when the result was keep, instead of thinking "oh well, bugger it", actually doing the hard yards and getting it to FA. A remarkable effort. Jenks24 (talk) 16:14, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
