Does anyone have a high res photo of a flat screen TV that they'd be able to send me? It'd need to be of a plasma/LCD TV, turned off, and it needs to be look perfect (studio quality, or at least done with a tripod) and sharp enough to print at about 21 inches across. It's for a practical joke...

Straight on, from the front? Will it be cropped to just the TV, or do you need a certain background?

Straight on, just the TV, if there's just plain wall behind it that's cool too. I'm trying to trick my flatmate into thinking I got a flat screen TV.... i'll have it printed like 21" accross and hang it up somewhere around the house :)

Gotta head to work. I'll see if I can get a good shot of mine when I get home. Oh, by the way you're evil.:p ;)

Why don't you run to a store and take a shot? Seems that'd be quicker.

I don't think a store would co-operate with me setting up a tripod and the lighting necessary to get a shot that's good enough quality I could print it 20" accross.

I tried to take a shot of our 42" rear-projection telly for you but it came out a shocker so I'm not even gonna post it. Too much light in places and not enough in others with horrendous reflections. Still, I learned that to get a studio shot of a telly - first get a studio! :-P

Thanks for trying mate! I could take a shot of my CRT TV, but i'd like something that really is about 18-25" across in reality, so the print comes out looking like a TV that I can stick on the wall :)
