Vak posted this over on the other board, I figured I'd bring it over here. I see counterclockwise, and only counterclockwise.

Just clockwise - can't see counterclockwise. The other ones are cool, too.

Edit: I went back and concentrated and made her go counterclockwise, but when I looked away and looked back, there she was spinning clockwise again.

What does it mean if you see both??? Depending on what I focused on, I was able to see it one way or the other.

Yes, yes you are.

Focus on her extended leg. Imagine that as it goes from your right to your left, it is coming out towards you - she's spinning clockwise. Then, imagine that as her extended leg goes from left to right, it is pointing toward from you. Now she's going counterclockwise.

If you imagine that her extended leg is always pointing toward you, she actually seems to go back and forth instead of in a circle.

I see clockwise. I have seen stuff like this before and I can usually see it both ways but I'm having trouble on this one. Maybe I'm too close to the screen.

OK try squinting at it. I did that and got her to change direction every time I squinted. It was kind of weird.

I'm with RYou on this one. You can tell it can't go both ways because of the way her foot is constantly pointing. She can't come at you if her foot is pointed away. Also it starts out with her left arm down and switches to the right arm down when she changes directions.
