Made Me Double-Take

Even more.

Anyone here ever do this? Sounds like a great prank to play on a co-worker's computer.

I would assume that you just take a picture of whatever is directly behind the monitor and set it as your wallpaper...

You have to be at a very specific angle for the illusion to work. Otherwise it'd just look weird

I did that once a year ago. It was very cool. Though, it was a pain to the lighting and the angle exactly right.

i could never get the lighting to work because my screen is glossy, so it kinda screws it up :/
