But you see everyone has seen 3d objects more than 2d objects. Tv and computers constantly show 3d shapes in 2d surface. The gradient i added(or actually just made it stronger) is whats called an monocular cue of distance, which is the third dimension, so even tho its just a computer screen you see the cube in, its not a "flat" surface that the cube is on
Do you find it hard to understand what shape this is? Were you even able to get it right before reading the spoiler?
Its
3d cube with all corners connected
Ps. Carved it on my ukulele
True, but even with the gradient there is a difference between the interpretation of lines and the interpretation of more reality-representative images on a tv or computer screen. Another lesson of drawing class is that reality doesn't have lines
"you can't get a diamond out of that even though it looks like a diamond." Okay, I didn't realize there was one "true" answer to this- you're saying that you must fold the shape or see it 3-D in your mind. My geometry/ spatial reasoning has admittedly gone south since highschool. I also pictured a hang glider or a parachute or wings, or those little paper things that you make that you write words on that kids make, but not a cube.
I saw the alleged "cube" immediately, but it's not geometrically accurate. The front left side is not parallel to any of the other three vertical sides; it is angled, therefore it's not really a cube at all. I assume the designer did it intentionally to make it appear less cubical and more like a diamond, unless they are simply bad at drawing shapes.
