cs99cjb	As you probably expect, this is one of those illusions that only works when viewed horizontally.	x
Memfis	Classic trick with a middle texture, you've probably seen it used in e.g. Requiem map16.	x
Anonymous	nice illusion, but its real simple	x
Anonymous	I think thats an awesome effect, not much to say...	x

Ack! Stupid question.

Anyway, if you're still reading...this is a wad that demos how to 
correctly achieve the window over window effect for Doom II. I made this
wad because I want all of you doomers out there to go out and make windows over
windows...and thought that this would be a good way to make that happen.
For a killer example of just how kewl this effect can make your Doom
maps look, check out Addictive deathmatches by, Iikka "Fingers" Keranen. It 
rocks man! Availaible on cdrom.com or at my website:
