Looking Closer at The Big Brother 3 Eye...

[Patrick]

What a brilliant eye, definietly the best out of BB1-BB5.

But look closer at it;
Does anyone else see it differently?

Like it looks very Irish and Green & Orange from the distance, but when you look closer I see that it turns Blue and the Orange becomes Pink?
Did anyone else ever notice this? It may of been obvious on the opening titles back in 2002 for everyone.

[Smithy]

It's probably my least favorite eye :/

If I look at it too long everything goes fuzzy

[Doogle]

It's like an illusion. :laugh:

Or at least it feels like one.

Yeah, this is one of my favourite eyes.

[Benjamin]

This is one my favourite eyes too! Glad you are watching BB3 Patrick, was defo one of the best BB's to watch. :hugesmile:

[MTVN]

Oh yeah I see that now :hugesmile:

The spirals are blue and yellow - blue and yellow make green, hence the illusion.

[CharlieO]

yeah i always realised that, weird that the colour changes. i like it though.

[Doogle]

I only just realised it isn't green. :laugh:

[Niamh.]

Oh, I thought it was green too, it's pretty cool, eventhough it makes me dizzy!

[Marsh.]

I liked it for what it was but it gives me a headache.

It's not thaaat amazing. I prefer the BB7 or 9 ones. Even the BB10 one is better for me.

I said it was the best out of BB1-BB5.

Because the early eyes all sucked, especially BB5's.
Obviously the BB7 and BB9 ones were better, those 2 Series come out on top everytime when it comes to most things.

And the BB10 one is brilliant anyway.
But out of the early seasons, this one is the best - infact it's probably better than BB6's eye aswell.

Okay.
Yeah definatly better than BB6's.

[Marsh.]

BB6's is my favourite. I think BB5's was a good idea with the sharp edges but executed all wrong.
Whenever I see the graphics for that series on youtube it looks so 90s and very dated.

The BB3 eye was orange and green on screen but in print form it's actually yellow, cyan (blue) and magenta (pink). See Eatock's site...

Btw I also really liked the CBB2 logo because CBB3-6 all simply have a star instead of a pupil but at least CBB2 took BB3's circle pattern and changed it in to a star. It's the most original CBB logo until CBB7's

And BB5's my favourite of the BB1-5 eyes tbh. I hated when it was unveiled in black and white but soon as the red version came out I loved it. :D

This variation of the eye is quite clever. I was just about to point out the CMYK detail - that's what is so clever about it.

The celebrity one just gives me a headache though. I can hardly see the red eye in it - just the pain-inducing lines and star! It was a good variation though, rather than just sticking a star in the middle ruining the illusion. Although it's worth noting that for Celebrity Big Brother 2006, Daniel Eatock/Foundation 33 did create a similar variation of the eye, this time from series 6:

However it was rejected resulting in just the normal variation of putting a star instead:
