Cutouts

So I had an idea for a little Flash animation (one which should be relatively easy to make) that I can put on the Heroic Portraits site.
I don't have the animation ready yet, but I do have the primary element of it, and I'm fairly proud of how it turned out, so I thought I would jump the gun and share it with you:



The basic idea is that our unnamed heroes (call them "H" and "P" if you need to give them names) are like one of those cardboard cutouts that you can stand behind and get your picture taken.
In the animation, a series of different faces would appear, making it seem as though they're standing behind the cutout.
Like I said, I'm really pleased with how this image turned out.
Do you think maybe this would work as a logo? I think it definitely gets the idea across.

Heh heh, Sharon said boobs.

Seriously though, I like the cutout idea. The only thing that would make it clearer would be to put ovals where the heads would be that say, "Your face here."

She also said "package."
As for the oval thing, I've been thinking of doing something along those lines.
