And yes, I know it implies she was alive until when they found her, and could even overhear their conversation.

Shh... just go with it.

Was It you that drew the bottom left drawing?

Nah, I got a still from the film online, then ran that through the "Ink Sketch" effect in Paint.net.

In more detail: I actually ran it through "sepia" effect first, then through "ink sketch". Then I shifted the hue and saturation to match the bluish off-white of the book. (But the black ends up a bit too black, so I use magic wand tool to select the black parts, and make it slightly yellowish).

I did this to generate all the drawings you see there.

I also did some other stuff, like use a very faint "distort -> frosted glass" on Leslie Tiller's photo and elsewhere to get the pointillist look of the game. There's a little random noise generated on top of the "Location of the Corpse" image (which is just a random flower shop blueprint from google). The "2 others were present" image is also a still; it's generated with multiple layers. The top layer was also noise or frosted glass or something, and then I cut out a circle in the top layer. And then I used a gaussian blur on the text I wrote to get it to a similar resolution as the rest of the image so it doesn't stand out from the text already there (see if you can spot what was present and what I put in!). If you look closely you can see the "black" and "white" parts of each of the images are actually slightly different colours because I did them all separately and I was too lazy to colour match precisely.

Most of it is just playing around with effects until I get something that looks right. (E.g. I first tried fragment blur but it wasn't what I wanted)

I can really recommend paint.net - it's great for meme making, and I find it a lot easier to use than Gimp, though it's a bit less powerful. (I have no experience with Photoshop so I can't compare to that).
