I have a Clevo M570U/Sager 5760 and the fan doesn't seem to get air fluently in it. So, I would like to know the best position that I can put my laptop so that it can get air fluently. I currently put the laptop on a glass, I don't know if that is important. Anyways, this is the bottom of my laptop:

your glass surface should be sufficient in getting airflow in. any hard surface will do because it won't impede the air flow on the bottom of the laptop. if your not getting enough air, your intakes and fans might be clogged with dust so just use some compressed air to clean it out. a laptop cooler would work well too.

With the backside raised some few inches!

Anything be creative......
Deck of cards, cd cases, or make something that you could put on the two back ends..
I have a cooling pad... and i raised it a bit with furniture pads that stick.
But before the cooling pad I used anything -
Cooling pads ey.

I would recommend to make sure you clean out the fans (mainly the vents) monthly.
And use a good notebook cooler, like Zalman ZM-NC1000 or NC2000. -
I keep my NP2090's back lifted a bit with the detached keyboard palmrest of a G15 gaming keyboard.

rig up two pulleys on the ceiling, get some strong cable, and hook it up to the kensington security lock on your notebook, then pull the cable to the requierd height and tie off
or a notebook cooler would also do the trick

The best position in my opinion is ...
Wait a minute, this is the wrong forum ;-)
Seriously now. What I did is buy a Zalman 2000 notebook cooler and I placed it on my desk with the back side facing me so that the holes on the top aligned with the CPU and GPU fan on the bottom of my laptop.
The only problen was that the laptop was leaning backwards as the back side is higher then the front (obviously).
So in order to fix this I raised the back sice of the cooler using 2 custom made plastic feet.
It looks a bit strange but works great! -
I keep it suspended with 4 boxes (in a cross like way),at about 3 inches above the table. Might be the reason my system runs cooler than others`.

Please don't forget that the fans are in the right hand corner and in the middle.

There's always liquid nitrogen.
It does get a bit, ah .... bulky, however. -
try the old "bottlecap" trick
