I am a new Mac user and somehow my computer is in x-ray mode (just like the photo booth effect, but my whole computer is like this). Does anyone know how to get this back to normal? It is very frustrating.

Thanks

System Preferences->Universal Access->Display Section...Choose "Black on White"

If this isn't it, you may have some display issues.

Forgot about that Chris. The key sequence is ctrl-option-command-8 to let you know how to avoid it..
