It is not looking really good, I will do it once again without the blue filter and possibly dual screens. Come one I want to see yours !
Edit : Updated with a new pic, dual screen transparent

So, do you basically just take a picture and then line it up as your background?

Actually the method is easier.
Put your camera on a tripod or anything making it still. Take a picture without your computer. Add you computer making sure the display is orthogonal to the line of sight, so that you have a real rectangle and not a trapeze. In any image editor make a new one with both, select the rectangle of your computer on the second image, without moving the selection copy the corresponding pixels in the first image and make a wallpaper out of it. Then take another picture with the same angle. I have to admit it doesn't look as good as on a picture. So don't except to amaze your friends...
