At first I thought it was either 1240 or 1246, but it helped to scroll the page up and down just a tad. Hope that wasn’t cheating! I finally decided 1240.
Nighthawks often posts puzzles like this without knowing the answer.
In case that’s true this time.. I did a little googling and discovered that this one isn’t really a puzzle…
It’s meant to be an EYE TEST.
Your answer isn’t right or wrong…
It supposedly gives information about your visio
I found dozens of postings, some just displaying the image as a puzzle, others with a “results” key.
I’m not too convinced of its accuracy…. but apparently it was very popular on the net, though obviously none of us saw it.
So no one will be influenced by the results when deciding upon a final answer….
I’ve hidden the results HERE.
Btw, “short-sighted” is the usual British term for what in the US is called “near-sighted.” The rest is pasted from a website…
3246: You are short-sighted and may have astigmatism.
3240: You have astigmatism but do not have short-sightedness.
1246: You only have short-sightedness but do not have astigmatism.
1240: Congratulations! You have perfect vision!
When the eye test went viral on the internet, many people felt that their answers truly reflected their eyesight.
A user wrote, “Welp. My optician is apparently aces. With glasses I saw 1240; without, I saw both 3246 & 3240, depending on how I turned my head. I am both short-sighted and have astigmatism.”
However, there were some users who commented that the result was inaccurate.
“I have perfect eyesight and I saw a 1,” one user wrote.
“I see 1246, however, I am farsighted, not shortsighted,” wrote another user.
We also made them fill out genaeology charts — but had to abandon those after they raised too many embarrassing questions (If both your mother and father have blue eyes and you have brown eyes…)…
Today is the first time I have ever seen the “Rocket Man” video.
That is really good artwork.
The details!
The juxtaposition of the drug trip with reality.
The “London Eye” in the background.
Traffic driving on the left side of the street.
The overall blending of scenes.
I watched it twice. I’ll watch it again in the future.
My late wife lost a nephew many years ago, this was his favorite song and was played at his funeral. I always remember him when I hear this song, makes me sad.
Wow, I didn’t get a drug trip from it. I saw a refugee escaping to the West. First by land, then in a flimsy inflatable boat. The end, looks like what call modern but looks like a future-scape to one from a third world land.

C’mon, Claude. I’m sure you could find a match if you tried hard enough. Let Cleo have her fun.

I’d have to say Claude is saving Cleo from herself.
First thing that actually came to my mind was Woody, in Toy Store 1, duct taped to that rocket. haha. But seeing The Beach Boys, on of my all-time favorites, took my mind off of that really quickly!
Meanwhile…. another beautiful image from Rob Gonzalves, who also painted the one of bridge arches transforming into sailing ships… we saw it the other day.
I see it, but what Montana Lady posted is apparently a puzzle version, because the Indians are somewhat disguised.
Thanks but maybe you don’t realise, because you didn’t hide it, that this one is a spoiler…. could be the original version, I don’t know, but it shows them clearly. No puzzle at all.
If you got it from her link, I don’t know how it happened, because they’re not the same image.
I’m just glad I clicked on hers and tried it before I saw your post.
Can any of the computer gurus tell me why for a few of the folks that I follow for this site, why do I get two or three notices in my email for their same posts?
Go up to the top of the comments, below the cartoon and whatever was posted with it, where it gives the number of them, ie, right now it says “70 COMMENTS”.
Next to that is a very small icon of a generic head, with a tiny “settings” cogwheel.
Click it. As I noted the other day, that will display all your own comments.
…
But on top of that list, you’ll find two other tabs, and one is labeled with the same icon you click to follow someone… (though to me the design looks more like a Wi-Fi signal indicator.)
Click to go to that tab, and it shows who you’re following.
If perhaps you clicked on someone twice, there could be duplication in the list.
I don’t really know for sure… But it’s worth a look.
what numbers do you see?
1240?
That’s what I see. But then I just had 2 glasses of wine………………
Ah, that helps!
1 2 4 0
Got it, but it’s easier to see if you change the zoom.
Don’t look too long or you’ll lose it…
Is that why I lost it?
You should have warned me years ago.
1240
At first I thought it was either 1240 or 1246, but it helped to scroll the page up and down just a tad. Hope that wasn’t cheating! I finally decided 1240.
I was thinking “why is this even a puzzle, if we all see 1240?”
Then I realised… it’s a GREAT puzzle if the actual numbers are …
I dunno, like, maybe 8374 or something…
and it’s somehow tricking us all into seeing the same incorrect tetrad.
I hate to be the contrarian, but 3240?
On my computer I saw 1240…
On my tablet, which actually has slightly better resolution… I was about to post that I think I see 3240 as well…
But honestly, it could go either way.
So, Nighthawks is sitting back and GIGGLING at all of us……
“Solution!”

We used to subject first-year biology students to color-blindness tests…

Now they say it’s not as absolute as we once learned.
Chromosomes are more complicated than we were taught.
You won’t strike a match to send Cleo to the Moon?
Claude is matchless…
After yesterday, I found “Citizen Kane” online.
I still can’t get into it.
Give her a match. You’ll save a lot of money on ammunition and pizza until she gets back.
That’ll be at least 43 seconds worth.
Today is the first time I have ever seen the “Rocket Man” video.

Another good choice, nighthawks.
I went back and watched it after your review. I thought it would just be a video of Elton. Turns out to be a very good animation. Thanks for the tip!

And furthermore…

‘…she makes the Indy 500 look like a Roman chariot race now….’
“Ben Hur”, “Quo Vadis” or “Asterix at the Olympic Games”?
Aw, come on, Claude. Cleo just wants to have one giant step for mankind!
Or dogkind.
Good answer, Susan!
I agree; be kind to dogs
She’s a firecracker, that Cleo.
There’s really no match for her, is there.
No one can hold a candle to her.
Well, they better not at this moment.
A painting by Oleg Shuplyak… who also painted the illusionist work posted yesterday by Nighthawks…
The one showing a white-haired man on a riverbank, with hidden faces.
really really special!
Meanwhile…. another beautiful image from Rob Gonzalves, who also painted the one of bridge arches transforming into sailing ships… we saw it the other day.
this one took me some time, but great!
I love all these illusionist paintings.
We have several Bev Doolittle prints. One of my favorites:
http://theartworld.ca/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/bev-doolittle-woodland-encounter.jpg
How many Indians do you see?
I see a fox……is that good enough??
but no Indians?
Actually, I saw two….maybe three or even four. Hard to say. Not easy!
I’ve only seen two. It was Bev’s work that drew me to the west.
Nothing shows up here. Good try, Tigressy
For me, your link doesn’t work. Funny.
I can see both…
Very strange.
I see it, but what Montana Lady posted is apparently a puzzle version, because the Indians are somewhat disguised.

I’m just glad I clicked on hers and tried it before I saw your post.
Very strange. Bev’s artwork is camouflage style. The two Indians are designed to blend in with the birch trees. Only the red fox is in clear sight.
Sorry there is such a discrepancy. :((
Huh? – The faces are clearly visible in both versions.
Two and two horses
Same here.
Two, as well.
find the hidden image
Got it! Good one!
Oh my gosh! This is beautiful!
Good morning Balladeers, (((((Plods))))) and Miss Susan.
Good morning, Cleo and Rockit phans!
Wile E.’s got nothin on Cleo

Another bunch o’ national days.
Y’all have a wonderful day. (((((HuGz)))))
In honour of:
“National Interpreter Appreciation Day”
good choice!
In German, it’s Bavarian… with subtitles…
yay! National Cartoonist’s day!
so….where’s my cake?
I’m on a diet
This is what I was thinking too. Apologies, but the baking gene skips the men in my family. The women have it, and it is very strongly expressed!

Ed White, first U.S. spacewalker in 1965, killed two years later in test

Our Space Program is just incredible!
Along with Gus Grissom and Roger Chaffey. RIP
That thing he’s holding is a maneuvering rocket; like a hand-held jet-pack.
Why any one would want a fifth of mayo is beyond me.
Hahahahaahaahaaaaa
That’s no fifth. That’s a 1/2 gallon. Or the metric equivalent.
Still better than a fifth of Mayo. Wasn’t really paying attention to the amount. Just wanted the picture.
Ciinco de Mayo in Memphis
(there’s a fog rolling off the Missippippi
has anybody seen Arkansas?)

…
…
.
Cinco de Mayo in … Cleveland?
Cinco de Mayo in … Belcherville?
Cinco de Mayo in … Ciudad del Perro?
All of the above, including Belchertown!
Is that Don Doggo and Maria Voluptuosa?
My thought exactly.
Can any of the computer gurus tell me why for a few of the folks that I follow for this site, why do I get two or three notices in my email for their same posts?
I don’t consider myself a computer guru…
But I would check this:
…
Go up to the top of the comments, below the cartoon and whatever was posted with it, where it gives the number of them, ie, right now it says “70 COMMENTS”.
Next to that is a very small icon of a generic head, with a tiny “settings” cogwheel.

If perhaps you clicked on someone twice, there could be duplication in the list.
I don’t really know for sure… But it’s worth a look.
Thanks, everyone I am following is only listed once, oh well we tried, thanks again
