What do you use to make anaglyphs out of 2D images?
Here I used an image editor and some other tools to play arround with the anaglyphing process.

While
manually cutting, smudging etc. is very much a pain in the …. I discovered a free (demo) tool which has unlimited support of its anaglyph functions (only other functions are restricted).
Bas-Relief Demo
http://www.3dphotopro.com/software.htmlis very easy. You only need to draw a “depth map” such as:

and it will generate the other sides image automaticly.
I just made a layer and roughly painted with a hard white brush over the areas “up front”, then made it transparent and drew over the next “layer”, smudging it at the end.
Lasso3D und Auto3D where nice to play arround with, but Lasso3D is much more of a hastle then Bas, and not much easier then editing manually. Plus, the resolution is limited to what your screen can display since there is no zooming…
AnaBuilder has a depthmap function too I think but I was unable to get it to work when I tried it. Maybee theres a new version now :)
Some Images I converted for a “wedding newspaper” with Bas-Relief:
