I really like this background. The colors are pleasant and reminiscent of
spring, or poison gas and it's not hard to find a contrasting text color that is easy reading.

I use it for displaying images like the following one of an Irish lass who was challenged to a dancing duel by the queen of the fairies (for high stakes, of course). I think the spook in the background is supposed to be the impartial judge. I call it The Challenge. If you are using Internet Explorer and want to view the image full-screen, press your F11 key once.



The Challenge



The following image was actually the first full version of The Challenge. I was working most on the lass, and the background was...well...just background.
