Transparent Desktop Screens

Transparent Screens

It’s always great to see what some free time, creativity, a notebook, and a digital camera can do. The results are illusions of transparent desktops on various notebooks. At first you might say, “Ah, that’s easy” (much like I said at first) – boy was I wrong. These are harder to accomplish then it seems. You must first get the right angle with your camera, take the shot, upload it, set it as your desktop and adjust the screen to match. Seems pretty simple, right? Try it out for yourself and let us know how the result came out.

Actually you might be able to do it using a blue screen type technique.

It is a nice effect, but it lasts only until you move any related object. Kinda removes the point of a laptop for many… So it is a really cool effect, it is really limited.

That’s awesome!  But there is an easier way—just take two pictures: one with and one without the pc’s.  All you need is photoshop after that.  wink
