["Oh, sorry, I'm getting a call."] Yes, I do carry paper in my pocket in case I need to make notes. And yes, I do sometimes pull it out and move my finger around it when 3 or more people start to do that. And yes, after seeing the pale blue glow on people's faces this past week at a bar, I realized I could improve the effect by shining my little flashlight through the paper onto my face. One of my friends even said the effect wasn't too bad. Oh, and when I want to "look up something" I'll usually just write the answer on the paper and then proudly show people the result.

I was also motivated to try to see if I could capture the pale glow using photoshop. I think it's not bad. I used layers and gradients. I also decided to make the table have some texture, and found some wood images and played with that a bit. I didn't really want to get into the colors too much, so the main characters were mostly just shaded with ink. This all went fairly fast, just a couple hours. images/Drawings/Sketches/phone.png
