This is wacky! The owners of the site insist these pics are still, but I get gentle movement all the time. Apparently they spin like mad if you are really stressed out...must visit again when I've been meditating <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Lauren, <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> The link says it can't find the page.

And since I've been being "feisty" - i thought I'd go check it out!

I need to destress! I need someone to follow me around these boards and go "you know she really didn't mean that". or "What she's reallly trying to say is". I need my own keeper these days! I need parthena back!!!! I'm so much calmer when she's on here.

If you copy and paste the link into your browser michelle then you'll see the page, clicking the link takes you to the wrong url.

I don't think it's got anything to do with how stressed you are (I'm perfectly calm and they're still moving) it's just an optical effect. If you keep your eyes perfectly still and look at the centre of the picture then there's no movement, but as soon as your eyes move then the picture appears to as well.

If the pictures appear to be spinning then your eyebals are also probably rotating madly in their sockets...you're not stressed, but might need to drink less.

Try again now...I've fixed the link. Michelle we love you anyway so don't worry. I want Parthena back too- if you are looking in we are missing you girl <img src="/images/graemlins/kiss.gif" alt="" />

Familychoice is right, holding your gaze to the centre stops the motion...maybe stressed people's eyes are more wobbly.

My kids saw the movement too & they are chilled out little munchkins because the holidays have started now.

They were definitely spinning until I concentrated on them - and it made my headache worse. <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

I'll go lie down now.

You're right... neat site. I am moderately stressed and yes, they were moving alright. I did deep breathing for a few minutes to calm and centre and looked again and the movements were definitely slower. Perhaps when agitated, or in a state approximating anxiety, our eyeballs more rapidly try to take in any threat in the area?


Be kinder than you need to be. Everyone is dealing with something.

I didn't see them move. But the Vicodin I'm taking for pain, which has definitely dulled my brain a bit, may have something to do with that. Heh...

I found that it moved only when I was thinking. When I was able to calm my mind it didn't move. Strangly though, I noticied the movement before I noticed the thoughts popping up.
