Post your favorite Anaglyph Stereo 3D images from Second Life here!

Here are 3 from Waterhead... (you'll need a pair of those red/blue glasses to view them properly)

Way cool.

To help get others started here are some useful links:

3D Glasses (links to these sites do not imply endorsement, buyer beware)

http://64.237.105.23/products/detail.php?o=7&b=0

Anaglyph Maker
http://www.stereoeye.jp/software/index_e.html

How to do it:

Take one snapshot from the position of the left eye of your avatar then take another snapshot from the position of the right eye of your avatar.

You will probably need a seat and a stiff pose for the accuracy.

Merge the two snapshots using Anaglyph Maker and preview with your 3D Glasses then upload to this gallery.

It should be mandatory that we document the world of SL in true 3D.

Actually, the anaglyph stereo images I made were taken in real-time using the Nvidia Consumer Stereo drivers for my Nvidia video card(downloadable for any Nvidia graphics card from Nvidia.com).

The images captured using a screenshot utility (the snapshot function in SL won't capture the double-image properly) that is built-into JASC Paint Shop Pro. You can have any OpenGL game output stereoscopic 3D in real-time, as long as you are running full-screen! :)

Wow. That's the neatest thing since sliced bread, Hank. Glad I had my Super Console Wars 3D glasses handy. :D

That's definitely something for me to toy around with later today. Thanks!

Wouldn't it be great if we could get a direct feed of these type while in world so we could build in 3D?
