Through trifocals I can see it out of the top and bottom lens, but not so well out of the middle lens.

I wonder if a computer screen ruins the example.On paper you would slide it around near as much.I saw it immediately while scroll the picture into view.

Scrolling up and down quickly is the only way I saw the number. Although my wife claims that I'm blind, deaf and totally oblivious to most things anyhow.

I do think that "translating" the original image multiple times as you have through the post to our computers must have some influence on what can be seen. I have never been able to see the numbers in any hard copy printing before this. I hope I'm wrong, because I was pretty excited to see the number for the first time. Please don't tell my wife. I'll never hear the end of it!

“Could there be a number in there, besides the obvious, more cleverly disguised that only 3% can actually see?”
There appears to be an eight digit number in the bottom left corner of the image but I can’t make it out. I do see the 17 though.

I can see it if I reduce the size to 25%. Otherwise I do not see a 17.

I can also see it by standing several feet away from the screen.

Yep, I can see there's something there, too. I wonder if the "17" was inserted to fool us and whatever it is in the lower left corner could possibly be the number that only 3% of us can see?
