I believe the author switched left and right. Because the inverse ones at the bottom work fine

Magic eye pictures are viewed by diverging your eyes, so the "parallel view" versions at the bottom work correctly with that method.

"Cross view" pictures require converging your eyes, so the images have to be in the opposite position from what your eye would see.

You're right.. guess I always thought Magic Eye was converged.

Once I look at the ones at the bottom and just zoom in/out in the browser I can see them perfectly.

I have a 33" monitor and seeing them means sitting much closer than normal and then zooming out in the browser.

Nah, magic eye is crossing, at least the ones I know. And I can only do crossing
