Hi all! I have an Acer S7, the 391 model not the better 392. I have an issue, I need to hide the webcam on the front. I am going to a place that doesn't allow ANY photography, even phones with cameras will be taken. I have a cheap flip phone i bought and tore the camera out of, that problem is solved. I need a way to hide the front webcam camera on my acer S7, I am sure as hell not ripping the camera out. So, does anybody have any suggestions? I was thinking a paint that matches the laptop perfectly in sheen and gloss but that will be a problem. The laptop is a touch screen, and the touch area doesn't go all the way to the camera, but it comes within 3/8 of an inch.
I found some images on the internet that best show the texture/area of it;

So my challenge is to hide the camera because I am not buying another laptop; which would be a challenge in of its self to find one new without a webcam, but I also like this one and have gotten used to the keyboard finally. We are dealing with dumb people that check, plus I am confident I can find a way to hide the webcam hardware itself on the computer.
Any suggestions? Another one I was thinking, if this glossy paper like stuff comes off the screen I could slip it off and slide a piece of super white glossy paper behind it, then put it back.
