Ha! That's so cute! So I give up. What are those green circular things and the red grainy substance?

That image should be grayscale, shouldn't it?

A photoshoped postdoc after lab-meeting?

it is really cute. But is it in the paper? I am sure the reviewers would immediately accept your paper as soon as they would see this fantastic picture

Cute ... you can say that.

It's not photoshoped, as in manndipulated illegally.

It's in the paper, although it is rotated 90' and thus I didn't originaly see the smile. And the figure in the paper includes both black white AND colour overlay. Here the overlay is purely for entertainment purposes.

Hey, don't underestimate the power of the subliminal. We re-oriented a pie chart in our most recent RO1 application so that the numbers in the pie chart made a little smiley face. I expect the money to come rolling in any day now.....
