I got a new mousepad in the mail yesterday. The old leopard-face one had faded to a splotchy blur. I had seen an ad for personalized ones and liked the idea. So I did some searching and found a place with good ratings and a reasonable price.
I knew exactly what picture I wanted to use. It took a while to find it. And since they accepted larger pics than I use in the blog, I re-edited the original for best definition/color/light, etc (considering that it would probably print on the rubber/vinyl/whatever a bit darker.
I am altogether pleased with the results!
And it looks better than the picture shows...
