Desktop + Transparent monitors

Description

"Transparent" LCD Monitors

I've seen this done with other computers and laptops and always wanted to try it out. The main thing that prevented me from doing this was lack of a good camera and mainly a tripod to put the camera on.
Then all the sudden I realized I had an old tripod from a video camera that is currently broken (battery missing).

I found a couple good sites that showed how to make this 'transparency' effect without actually destroying your monitor. :)

The steps I took:
:bulletpink: Took away both monitors.
:bulletred: Setup tripod with camera (purple Kodak EASYSHARE M753). Had to strap the camera on with a big rubberband...lol
:bulletorange: Took a picture of desktop
:bulletyellow: Added monitors. Taking care to not move a lot of things on the desk
:bulletgreen: Took another picture WITH the computer on.
:bulletblue: In Photoshop Elements 2.0 I edited the files...(I COULD go into details, but too advanced. Just read the links I gave you ealier) ;)
