 +====== Plain text 3d? ======
 +
 +Yep.
 +
 +Here are some simple examples to warm you up for the
 +more complex pages to come.
 +
 +Look at the screen (or page if this has been printed
 +out) and see if you can get the 2 X's below to look
 +like like 3 X's.
 +
 +This is the basic skill needed for viewing the images.
 +
 +When you do this you are fooling you brain into
 +thinking the image is further away than it realy is.
 +Once you can do that we can play with the spacing
 +between the letter and your brain will interpret that
 +as distance
 +
 +You may need to play with the font size (smaller may be
 +better) and your distance from the page or screen to
 +get the effect to work.  Also be sure that you are
 +level with the image.
 +
 +Ok, give it a try with the simple images below
 +
 +  - try to see three X's and columns of text.
 +
 +                              X
 +            :            :            :
 +            :   This is  :   This is  :
 +            :   a test.  :   a test.  :
 +            :   Its all  :   Its all  :
 +            :   in one   :   in one   :
 +            :   plane.   :   plane.   :
 +
 +  - ok, now try one with a little depth.
 +
 +                              X
 +            :            :            :
 +            :  This  is  :   This is  :
 +            :  a test.   :   a test.  :
 +            :  Its in    :   Its in   :
 +            :   two      :   two      :
 +            :  planes .  :   planes.  :
 +            :            :            :
 +            : Cool  huh? :  Cool huh? :
 +            :            :            :
 +
 +  - and now for the last example.
 +
 +                              X
 +            :            :            :
 +            :   that'  :    that' :
 +            :    all     :    all     :
 +            :     folks! :    folks!  :
 +            :            :            :
 +
 +ok, now try the some [[three-d|full 3d pages]].
