Until computers really do become transparent, you can satisfy yourself with this cool optical illusion. It takes a little bit of work to get it just right, but when you do, the results are fantastic! Just take a photograph of what's behind your laptop or flat screen monitor, it doesn't work right on an old-school monitor. You can be as creative as you want with the assortment of junk or pets you want in the photo. Then upload your photo and make it your desktop. All you have left to do is align the monitor with your background and if you did it right, seamless transparent monitor! All your friends will think you're so cool!
