Stop squashing the picture just to fill the screen! It looks awful!

@americangirlluvr1999 You fool XD

@Totono3D when I get a little bolder, I do have another home-made rig that allows for a larger interocular distance. The issue is getting the thing inside the park without drawing too much attention, since the thing is pretty much a large, flat piece of steel. Thinking about using Plasti Dip on the thing to make it less menacing looking. To get the 2-4 meters that you mentioned before, though... looks like I'll need another tripod, huh?

@Totono3D awesome. I am just trying to figure out how to dial in the same center point for both cameras. I'm wondering if a dot of red nail polish in the center of both lcd displays might make it easier... maybe point the cameras at some graph paper, one at a time, to determine the center of each frame.
Another Q: Should the point of convergence be in the mid-ground like I've been attempting, or should it be on the object in the frame that is the farthest away?
Thanks again for your help!

What I said before is more for an "in your face" 3D with the cameras 4 meters apart. Placing the cameras about 2 meters apart can work fine too, with less 3D but good enough. For convergence I look for what is in the center one camera and try to place the same center in the other one too.
-
And for convergence i would suggest you use a compass and try shifting about 5° to 15° depending on where your interest point is.

Let me put this in perspective, pretend for a while like you could change in size. If you were small your eyes would be closer together, if you were a giant, your eyes would be further apart. So if you wanted to take pictures of a big place like Disney World, think of it like a scale model. To watch a scale model closely but comfortably you would place your face at about 6 inches away (human eyes are 2 to 3 inches apart).

@Totono3D Hi, and thanks for the advice! I could really use your help, I'm a total 3D noob and am still trying to figure things out.
I am using 2 cameras. I understand that subjects that are further away need a larger interocular distance... the home-made rig I was using that night just didn't allow it.
Re: convergence... I try to set my midground subject near the point of convergence, but have trouble confirming this in the field... I end up having to 'eyeball' it. Any suggestions?
the 3D effects don't work with my 3D glasses. they're the black realD 3D glasses from the movies. anyone know why?

@americangirlluvr1999 Hi! Unfortunately, the realD polarized glasses you get when you go to see a 3D movie in the theaters do not work with YouTube 3D videos. I wish they did... I have a dozen pair laying around the house. I believe a special monitor is required to display a polarized image, which is required for those glasses. If you have some Red/Cyan or Green/Magenta glasses (included with most DVDs that are in 3D,) then you will be able to see the 3D effect.
