I'm on 36/37 at the moment! I'm not sure if I counted one twice.

I am curious if there is an actual answer to the question, or is it a test of perception.

What does it mean if you see circles?

I love the smell of radials in the morning!

I can see the 4 squares I was missing. Cool

Nice work Maafts! And # 40 of course is the entire area of the squares.

Hi! New to the forum and this is my first post - The image really is a test of perception, I count 81 - defining a square as a shape with equal dimensions. I'm not quite sure how to upload a picture though! Any pointers?

That's an interesting one, never really tried it before, however I have seen it before. I always expected the picture to change after 30 seconds to some clown face with really sinister music.

I counted 31 though
