Stolen Pixels #223: The Expensive Dimension

[Seanchaidh]

So, uh... closer objects are supposed to have the larger difference in visual position for each eye, right? It seemed to be the opposite in the comic. For those of you with the special glasses and having problems seeing the 3D, perhaps it was because the comic wasn't 3D but instead was actually anti-3D.

I'm okay with the narrower strips, but the advantage of wider, in my opinion, is simply not having to scroll back up to read the commentary.

I'm definantly coming back to read this once i get the right pair of 3D glasses.

 

[Drexlor]

Wow, it IS in 3D... AHHH MY EYES!!!

 

[Keepitclean]

*Gets 3D glasses* Hey, this isn't in 3D! Just plain old 2D, it's missing a 'D'.

Bappy Hirthday to you Yhamus Soung.

Hey it works, except for a couple of shadow men leering out of the 3-D effect. The shadow man is creepy.

I like the wide format. I also like the text at the bottom... this may avoid people forgetting to scroll back up and read your text (now they will just willfully ignore it).

Lousy Arkham Asylum glasses. I've lost 'em. Nevertheless, good comic, and happy belated birthday.

shamus are you on vacation?

 

[Anti Nudist Cupcake]

Heloooo? When will there be another stolen pixels comic? it's been like two weeks...
Hope nothing is wrong or something, don't mind me.

 

[Goldeneye103X2]

They sort of work. I mean, the only 3D parts are the speech bubbles, but those are quite cool anyway.

 

[Darth Trethon]

So what's the deal? When does Stolen Pixels start again? It's been a while and no word about what's up.

 

[Mister Eff]

What happened to this? Haven't had anything for a couple of weeks?

 

[neilsaccount]

dont tell me thi is shutting down too, first alt-escape and now this?

It worked on some of the images. On one though the offset was too much, but only for half of the image.

ETA: Yep, all except for the middle one worked fairly well. for that one the right side of the image was good, but the offset of the left side of the image for a red/blue effect was too much. It took all of my stereoscopic imaging ability (Two separate images side by side) to get the two images to blend, and then I couldn't get them to focus, as that is not how this kind of 3D works. Excuse me, I need to take a nap now. (Hits head on wall on way to bed.)

I have a pair of 3D glasses, but it never seems to work for me. NEVER. It's probably yet another disorder of mine. Some people decry 3D as "a stupid gimmick", but for me it's even more: a useless gimmick. I have to admit i haven't seen any actual 3D movies in the theater, but i doubt it'll work there either.

And happy birthday, Shamus.

Yeah, I'm blind in my left eye so it doesn't exactly work for me... :/
