Let There Be Light!
Em writes the following in the TT Companion Book:
One good thing about having an artist for a partner, we already have one! I just took the top 20 cards off my deck and laid them against the white cloth. I can make out about 8 of the cards (and interestingly enough, not the top 8 cards). I put the stack on the light box and I can make out 17 of them. 3 of them (again, interestingly enough not the bottom 3, but 3 of the last 4) are truly hidden behind all the other images. Even when I know what to look for I don't see those images.
And the light box definitely adds a 3D feel to the cards. Both to the 20 card jumbled image (JI) and even a 3 card composite image (CI). The light box we have is big enough that it will illuminate 2 rows by 5 columns of cards.
Considering that it's been hidden away for 3 years (I knew where it was, but the partner didn't), he didn't have any problem with me using it for the foreseeable future. He may never get to use it again....
