A room in the house i just moved into has a window that looks into the laundry room. I'd like to put a picture behind it but can't decide how to light it. I'm thinking i could either make a 2 inch mdf box and throw some leds inside or put leds around the inside of the window and just glue the picture to a panel and stick that up. The opening is 48 x 48 so it would be large photo paper.

Matte acrylic with polished edges. Shine light in from one edge - whole damn thing glows. Its how LCD backlights work. (There are some diffusing foils and powerful wizardry, but in principle it is that simple.)

How thick would I need? half inch? Could I run LEDs around the perimeter?
And basically, you're saying put the acrylic in front of the picture like in a picture frame, then put light in through the sides?

Ho shit, dont let the inspector walk your house. The laundry room might be unpermitted and he'll force you to tear it down.

I would just like to add that it will look like shit. If you want to have a brighter room add lighting, if you want more spacious - put a mirror there instead of a picture.

It's not about brighter or spaciousness -- it's about having a window looking into the laundry room in the office room. Rather than getting curtains or blinds or something, I thought a poster would be me interesting.
