Great contest. Thanks. I am going with helpful hit Number 3. I like new and shiny but also bizarre and obscure.

As a little side note, Australia post issued a red back spider stamp to coincide with one of the red back spider coin issues. It was so realistic, they had to be discontinued as people were scared of them.

But notice that the actual image part of the full scan is the perfect avatar size!
