I went to the
_http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Horizon/5545/3d4free.htm_
which shows non-stereo anaglyphs, and contributed to the guestook.

It appears mine was the first post in the guestbook to recognize the bogus
nature of the site.  Let's get some more corrective guestbook entries
there, shall we?

I posted:

Friends:

This page may claim to provide 3-d pictures, but I don't see any here.  A
real 3-d picture is made from two photographs, called a stereo pair of
photographs, which when viewed correctly (one for each eye) produces a real
three dimensional view!

What is being offered at this site is at best uninformed misinformation, at
worst fraud.  None of the material here can be characterized as 3-d
photography in any way.  It is particularly shameful, as stereo photography
is difficult to explain to begin with, without having to overcome the
prejudices against "3-d" photography created by these sorts of gimmick
sites.  Stereo photography enthusiasts have a difficult enough time showing
off the real stuff!

It is my sincere hope that the publisher of this site either get an
education in stereo photography (starting with the links mentioned below),
or simply remove this site from the web.

For examples of real 3-d photography, I invite you to my 3D Showcase at
_starosta.com/3dshowcase_, or visit the many stereo photography sites
featured on the stereoscopic web ring at
_http://www.bolomedia.com/catalyst/ringhome.html_.

Best Regards,

I hope I made no mistakes.  I'm sure P3D will let me know.
