For both #1 and #2, is it possible to add a caricature of me somehow (medium length light brown hair, green eyes, glasses and a slight smile. My face is not round, not thin . . . in the middle--I am of average build) to make it more personable.
I like the sidewalk feel of #2 but the manhole in the middle is scarey . . gonna drop in! perhaps if that was shaded grey also?
Funny addition to the idea. The "Lie Down" sign made me laugh! Not sure how to get a head shot up to you, but I will try to figure it out so you have it soon
