Yep.

Also add 3D artists to that list. (me. :-)

After dealing with 3D images and drawing them, writing VRML, writing
3D generators, drawing illusions, etc, your brain gets used to the
fact that the rules can be tricked, and double checks when a 
questionable image is presented.

I've got some more illusions coming, so watch out! (in a couple weeks,
right now I hardley have any free time. )-:
