    Transparent Desktops!

    Check out this link! It's a great idea!

    "All" you have to do is take a pic of what's behind your monitor, and post it as your desktop background. It makes it look like it's "transparent". I discovered this from another forum, I thought this was cool so just wanted to share it with you guys.


    I do know the AO sig rules, I just want a free sig pic, that's all! :mad:

      that's cool, ken. kinda like the trick where you take a screenshot of somebody's desktop and make it their background. when they try to click the icons, nothing happens...hilarity ensues. it's funny to me anyway.

                              Also make sure u lock the windows bar and hide it so they cant see that either, it is alwasy a fun thing to do.
