Here's an image I found while looking for backgrounds. I also attached one of my takes on it, curious to see what others will do

That's a cool effect, Ikroll. And Janet, that was a good idea,and it turned out great. Who is she?

Time is too slow for those who wait,
too swift for those who fear,
too long for those who grieve,
too short for those who rejoice.
But for those who love, time is eternity.

I have to agree with Craig here, some great stuff.
Here's my go at it. Messing with cutout filter.
