Yesterdays word on the Nominate-4-November list was Window and I posted the photo below.
A few people asked me how this was done and I have detailed this below. I also wondered if anyone else has done this, or would like to give it a try? It's great fun to do for home and the office.
The photo:
How it is done: 1. I sat on the settee and to two shots from the same place; the first was with the laptop sitting there and the second without it. 2. I then used Paint.net to open the non-laptop image and then added the lap-top image as a second layer on top. 3. At this point I selected the area of the laptop screen display and cropped the two layers down to this size. 4. By simply now removing the top layer (the lap-top screen), you end up with just the bit of the wall that was behind it. 5. I saved this image and set this as the desktop image on the lap-top. 6. Finally, I sat back down in the sale spot on the settee and lined the shot up by moving the camera back into the original position (or near enough), so the twigs lined up. 7. This photo was then saved and posted without any editing.
Please have a go and post you photo here, tagging them clear-screen

Very cool! But it looks like most of you have those wonderful flat screen monitors! I'm stuck with a functional but old dinosaur! When and if it ever goes...
