Thanks all. Boy did exactly what I needed. If I have to do this again, I have some excellent options.

Very effective stereogram too Gary.

I did this for Custom-Stereograms.com years ago with one of the slider apps. Since Gene and I now work together as eyeTricks I have refer any visitors to to our eyeTricks page.

What's the largest you've had printed Gary?

Gene did a poster 8 feet x 6 feet for in a Florida airport. This was the biggest we have done. Amazingly, some people could actually see it.

We had one request to do a two story high ceiling in a building atrium. We quoted an outrageous fee and did not get the job.

My maximum is 4" x 3" which is as big as I like to go.

Interesting, I'd have thought the bigger the easier it would be to see.

personally I think there is an optimal ratio: size/distance from, which will vary from person to person

6 by 6 I would have to stand back quite a bit

Not so. Your eyes need to pull together the repeating panels. And the wider the panels the harder it becomes.

The attached: The first two circles (when viewed full size) should be pretty easy for most people (sorry Chris) to pull together.

I have to work to get the next two to come together.

The third pair I can pull together but it is not easy.

My stereograms that are basically designed for 10" x 8" viewing use a repeat that is either 1 1/2" wide or 1 3/4" wide.

The biggest advantage for a poster size image is you can get more detail to the hidden image. But the repeating pattern becomes more obvious and less random.
