This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I was able, very briefly and not since, to see white and gold. Otherwise, I thought they were all crazy.

Same! I wish I could flit between like I can with most illusions. I'm just happy I know I saw it the other way once at least.

It's a weird type of illusion because even knowing the truth I can only see the white and gold, even when the lighting in the photo is adjusted to correct the overexposure my brain still reads it as white.
