Scrolling down, you see an image which supposedly has 3 ninjas hidden inside it. Is it possible to create this image?[/url]

Welcome to the forum scatonu. Without the goggles, who knows? ;) The image is not black, but if you can make 3 ninjas out of it good luck!

Ah yes the forum on there said they saw 3 images (green dots).
How did you make those dots appear? Because I tried lightening the hues and stuff but nothing came of it. And is there a formula I may use to create images like this?

EDIT: is it quite possible that our monitors can produce infrared images that appear black to the human eye? Is this how the green dots work?

I used levels to bring them to the fore, but they are faintly visible with the naked eye, even in the original.

I see, thank you :)

EDIT: how do you guys reckon the picture was created? Opacity dropped really really low?
