There's nothing in the rules that even suggests that the camera has to
be pointed at your face. At home, I use an external NTSC video
source, which allows me to feed from my security camera mess, DirecTV
receiver, DVD player, test pattern generator, or whatever. I suspect
my customers would lose confidence in my abilities if they saw me
unshaven, disheveled, and dressed in pajamas. If diplomacy requires
that I look presentable over Skype, I have a few video clips that I
can play of me faking the professional look.
I am going to hire a good looking assistant to front for me. I too
skype U,D and D in PJ. I'll do skype conference call to customer with
my assistant in webcam. I'll do the talking and hopeful the customer
do the looking. The customer does not need to understand what I am
talking about, just comfortable enough to keep sending money.
Hell, just send them a still of you trying to look nice. Picking one
from a collection might be better. Might save on the video vs voice
issue.
