Nice.

It's img17.jpg and img20.jpg from Vistas category. If you set them as
wallpaper, then move "Desktop" to the front in Flip 3D stack, it somewhat
aligns with actual desktop picture in the background creating kind of new
perspective.

Okay, I really don't have a clue what's going on here. No problem finding the
pictures. I know what Flip 3D is, and (I think) how to use it. But I really
don't see what the heck you folks are talking about. Wanna give on old man a
step-by-step with REALLY precise instructions so that he can see the effect
to which you're referring???

Thanks.

Oh, for pity's sake! I went back and looked at it again. You guys have too
much time on your hands!

Oh, wait a minute. I did it, too. Damn!

Now I'm going through the other pictures to see if I can get parts of them
to line up. This is dumb. But probably not as dumb as playing solitaire.
Thanks loads for helping me find another time-waster, guys!

At first, I too didn't understand what OP is talking about :-)

Well, not that it's something big, its just a somewhat amusing accident:

- Set your wallpaper to one of images mentioned earlier
- Bring up Flip 3D by holding down "Windows logo" key and pressing Tab.
- Continue pressing Tab while holding down WIN key until "Desktop" window
appears at the top of Flip 3D windows stack.
- Look to the right where angled "Desktop" window aligns to actual desktop
wallpaper in the background.

I hope now it is more clear :-)
