I think you mistakenly loaded that new iTouch/iPhone app on your computer that sees through cloths.

How about straightening the baseline and cloning out that mark on the wall?

Oh, hang on.... :oops:

Cool effect/concept.

As a prank with some of my co-workers, we'd look for someone who has a lot of icons on their desktop, take a snapshot of their desktop, create a single folder and dump all their desktop files into it and then set their wallpaper as the snapshot taken earlier. Then we'd wait for the mayhem to start. We'd only do this to people we're close with to avoid any calls from the HR dept. It's an old prank but still works well. lol

Ha, classic! I have a victim in mind already :twisted:

There was a utility back in the days that would turned the screen upside down and a few users were more than a bit perplexed on what to do :shock:

Tyler, great concept - I really like it!!!

2 of my favourites prank were old amiga apps. One made a tiny cockroach skitter across the sreen randomly. At first you think you are seeing things drives people nuts. The other was a screaming skull. People jump out of their skins with that one.
