The smarter you are, the harder this is

I could see it, but it took longer than it takes me when it's not on a computer screen.

Onyx, have you ever done the "floating sausage" trick with your fingers? You hold your index fingers pointed at each other, about six inches from your nose, and then focus on something beyond them (like your keyboard.) You will see a little floating piece of finger in between your fingertips.

That's essentially what you're trying to do with the stereograms, focus past them. Try switching back and forth between focusing on your keyboard and your fingertips, and then try to do the same eye muscle movement while looking at the picture.
