Encyclozine: Optical Illusions
"The brain takes cues from images received from the eyes to help it interpret what is being seen. Usually this is important for things like depth perception, but occasionally it leads us astray. The cues deceive us into thinking we see something that isn’t true, or isn’t even there. Seeing isn’t always believing - as these optical illusions demonstrate! Great explanations and a wonderful links section add depth to this site, whose creators describe as a cross between an online encyclopedia and a portal."

Draw and Color with Uncle Fred
""Uncle Fred" Laswell has been drawing the syndicated comic strip Barney Google and Snuffy Smith for fifty years. At his popular Web site, he teaches us how to draw "cartoonys" — simple cartoon characters that can be drawn in about twelve steps. Choose to learn how to draw a bunny rabbit, a chef, or a happy puppy from the list of twelve lessons. Or simply start at the first lesson (a surfer) and continue through to the end (a penguin.)<!--"

ComicsPage.com
"Comic strips from Tribune Media Services include classics such as Gasoline Alley, Annie, Dick Tracy, and Brenda Starr. Along with a ninety-day archive, many of the comics include a reader forum, interactive games, and a bit of strip history. From the front page, site navigation is divided into strips (comics with multiple frames, such as Shoe) and panels (single frame cartoons such as 9 to 5.) Bulletin boards for discussion are available from the entry page, as well as from each cartoon’s main page."
