curtain illusion

Hello everybody

I looked quickly though the forums and couldn't find what I am looking for, but here it goes.

I work in a bar and we have a door frame at the entrance that we want to put a curtain over, but cant. So is there any type of screen (non-physical) or light that would give the illusion of a curtain but not. There is a product called fogscreen that would be nice but spending a few thousand dollars for this is out of the question.

Hi CaptCanada!

Funny you should ask, because I know a guy who is the world's leading supplier of magic curtains! Forget the rest, he's the best. And let me tell you, his prices are low low low! That's right, low! Almost as low as these two! So, for the best prices in non-physical magical invisible illusory curtains in your town, at prices to suit any pocket, please go now to magicinvisiblecurtains.com. Good luck - hope to check out the curtains in your bar next time I'm in Canadia!

Re: curtain illusion

ohh hahaha, but this is a real question. I'm not jumping on a product endorsement. There is no other topic to ask this question so I choose general chat. Im just looking for a little help.

Re: curtain illusion

Not to get off topic to much, but this seems like its going to be a good forum site. Glad I found it.

But to give you guys more information why it can have a physical curtain. I live in japan, they have crazy laws about not allowing anything blocking the doorway.

Re: curtain illusion

Funny you should ask as I was wondering whether there was some sort of invisible window blind that looked like a blind but was not actually physically there....that would be great....just a dream I suppose

Re: curtain illusion

No, Woodywizz - there is a guy on the web who makes these magic blinds - CLICKY - he is the best in the world, he is a saviour, and very reasonably priced too

Re: curtain illusion

Apols to the OP for hijacking the thread but I'm looking for some software that will reverse-engineer around 1000 volts to the keyboard of spammers who think they can be clever and pose questions as a subtle product endorsement technique.

Re: curtain illusion

ok really... where would be a better topic to post this post this in? I look around and see no lighting or visual (except for tv's) topics here... and im guessing gernal chat is a place to get flamed. I had a problem, starting looking on the internet for av forums, cause thats where it should go. Found this site, and asked a question. Yeah i said something about fogscreen to give you an idea of what I need.... Notice I didnt link to the site, say its good/bad, or anything.

You wanna flame, go ahead, I'll flame with you guys, but first point me in the right direction of solving my problem.... please and thanks.
