We have discussed this a few times... The only question in my mind is if 
our depth perception gets more accurate or we just get used to the effect
and don't notice it any more.  I am afraid the beginners might see things
more accurately than we do. 

Also, why is the cardboard cutout effect stronger in your prints than 
your slides (I gathered this from your description)?
