If this has been clipped before, please forgive me. (Wish we had a way to tell beforehand if an URL was already clipped... hmmm feature suggestion!) This is a tidy and very fun gallery of optical illusions, ambigious images, hidden images, and more. Lots of exercise for your eyes. I know this type of thing is rather popular on Clipmarks, so all the better to share it with whoever's interested!
