Hello Everyone,
A lot of you must have been battling with improper lighting during Skype or Hangout chats. Here are some tips:
An over head light source would create a butterfly shadow under your nose and dark sockets under your eyes.
A strong source of backlight would show your silhouette or outline.
A good source of light at a 45 degree angle or in front of you or at an eye level would serve the purpose during online video chats.
All the best.
Happy chatting!
