I think that may be difficult because of a lack of definition. To make
things like a very crude cat or tree would be possible, but more
complex objects become difficult due to distortion.  The trick is to
try to make use of the distortion.  But really I think they are
interesting as demonstrations of real stereograms - but at a very
basic, low definition level. There is another method of creating
hidden stereograms using plain text, but they have less clarity due to
overlapping of characters; which tends to create shadowy images.
However that method does allow for more complex shapes and higher
definition.
