This optical illusion (now at version 3) has been featured on the new page along with 6 other brand new illusions exclusive to Skytopia.
Originally, the illusion came from the rotating spiral illusion in the 19th century. But I've spruced it up by using a different line technique, added multiple type squashes, and also made it smoother, faster and more effective than comparable ones seen on the web elsewhere.
