Stereophotography edit

 
Tay Road Bridge Cross-Eye 3D.jpg

Thanks for uploading your stereophotographs to Wikimedia Commons. I just wanted to let you know that you seem to have mixed up the difference between 'cross-eyed' and 'parallel' stereophotographs. The image, right, which you uploaded and described as 'cross-eye' stereo is actually a parallel stereophoto. In your image, the right eye looks at the right image, and the left eye looks at the left image: your eyes are viewing the images in parallel, hence the name. In a cross-eye image, the right eye looks at the left image, and vice versa: they cross over.

This is not a problem, but it does mean that I'm going to list your pictures to be renamed, and will recategorize them in the correct categories. Uploading pictures in parallel format is fine, since many people prefer to view them in that format. However, many people (probably the majority, judging by the volume of uploads to the Stereophotography Flickr Group) prefer to view stereophotographs 'cross-eyed'. There is no reason to replace these images with parallel versions (as you said with the photograph file:Galena 3D in Bristol Museum.jpg). Feel free to upload alternative versions as separate files, if you wish.

Apologies for the long and boring message, but I thought it sensible to explain why your images need to be renamed. NotFromUtrecht (talk) 20:39, 23 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I assumed they were called "cross-eye" because you were supposed to cross your eyes when you looked at them.
That said, you would still be correct. What I was doing was the opposite (although I didn't realise it until I checked by photographing myself(!) and thinking about it logically). My mistake...
I find that much easier than actually crossing my eyes though. While I can do that (e.g. by looking at a finger in front of my face), the images behind it aren't in focus and my eyes un-cross as soon as I look at them. Perhaps that's just me... Disde (talk) 21:05, 23 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
More... I was going to change your image I swapped back to its original state. But it appears that you uploaded the original version under a new name elsewhere, so I un-reverted(!) it. Sorry for any confusion caused. Disde (talk) 21:10, 23 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
