I love stuff like this.

Would be more fun if it was a real naked chick spinning around.

One of these is a referee and the other is Tom Brady.

This funky phenomenon is called Chromostereopsis. It is a visual illusion that occurs when certain colors are placed alongside each other, making it unnecessarily difficult to focus on both colors. The illusion is due to the respective wavelengths stimulating different areas within the eye. Basically confusing how the brain processes colors.

My edit:

Note that most people see the above image with the red layer being visually "above" the blue layer. A much smaller number of people see the blue layer being "above" the red layer. A very small number of people are just color blind enough to see absolutely no difference between the perceived height difference in the colors.

Personal note, I for one have noticed this phenomenon is BWillie's signature. If anybody else has sigs enabled, please check out BWillie's partifular sig and see if it looks the same to you if you notice the difference in this pic.

Does the effect show up in this pic for others? Making the blue text look oddly vertically displaced in depth compared to the red text?

I see optical illusions every week during the NFL season when Mahomes plays a game.

So does it mean I'm crazy that I see the blue as above the red and that it appears to move while the red is completely stationary?

And also, yes I can see it the same way in the signature as well.

Same.

Spent about 3 minutes on it, thought I'd at least miss a couple.
