Okay, my brother found this and I thought it was extremely cool, so I'll post it here:

Follow the directions on that site. This illusion is AMAZING.

...Huh? Of course it's not really in color, it's an optical ilusion...

That's a pretty cool one. It makes sense, too.

How is it fake? I got it to work for me. And don't we already have a thread for optical illusions?

I'm sorry, I thought that the point of the illusion was that it turns black and white. I just mis-read it.

No it isn't. If you do what it says, it looks like it's in normal color when you move your mouse over it, instead of black and white.
Edit: Okay, I figured you had just misread it.

If you move your eyes away, it turns black and white. How could that be faked? The computer doesn't know when you look away.

I can never get those ones to work. I stare and stare and it does the same thing. :p

But from what you guys said, that's pretty cool.

I got something like that in an email one time. If you stare at it for longer, the colors get more vibrant and prettier.

That's a rather odd illusion. It reminds me of a book when I was younger that made you stare at a dot inside a certain colored animal then stare at a blank page, and the color of the animal would change.

Sadly, the illusion on this page only lasted for a split second before making me have to redo it.
