most stereograms are designed to look correct when you cross your eyes

This is how I look at stereograms (looking nearer than the page), but at least some of the images on this page seem like they're designed for the other way around (looking in the distance, beyond the page).

This one looks weird when I look at it cross eyed, but fine when I look at the other way.
