They're curved. I just can't see them as straight without the paper edge. |

| I may be totally navie, but why is it called the 'Herring' Ilusion? Was it created by some guy, [or girl!] who's last name was Herring? Or was it inspired by a herring? |

| What I thought was really cool was if you stare at the center long enough you will see an 'X' that grows then disappears! Awesome. |

| I enjoyed this illusion... By the way, I thought it was a good idea to put a little bit on the history of the illusion here, even if it is just the date it was created. |

| Freaky dude!!!
I can't believe how old this one is. |

Aug 15, 2007
| Wow, neat!
They look just slightly curved to me. When I put something straight against it, it almost looked like it moved to be straight! Like it molded to the straight edge.
I wonder if all the other little lines serve and purpose in the illusion... |
