    I created these over the last few days in MS paint, mainly just to see what our currency would look like if things were different. The images came from other websites, I hope no one minds! If anyone wants me to take one down, just ask!

    The first one is a $10 silver certificate, but not the kind you'd expect.

    And the second one is a $1 'largehead'. A grim vision of things to come?

    Killin' time gotta love it. Although you did a good job, I'll wait until the feds make me use it.

    Seeing as how George didn't even want his face on money in the first place, I'm sure he'd be rolling over in his grave.

    Nice job though.

    i gotta say i dont like em, but i dont like any of the modern notes coming of the presses.

    That said, i DO think you did an excellent job altering the images! and dont take my not likeing them as a sign otherwise!!!! I would love to see our notes getting more intricate disigns. Like the notes of old. Our currency right now looks to bland!.

    I certainly cant wait for the new $100 though!!!! and the new $20 looked a smite bit better then in the recent past... so IMHo we might see some cool things to come! Did someone say polymer?!?!

    oops! gotta stop the ranting!!!

    :thumb: good job on your editing!!

    Thanks for the comments, everyone! It was actually my intention to make them ugly. I am avid fan of the 'smallhead' style of dollar bills and higher denominations. I certainly don't condone the use of the (frankly) hideous designs, that's why I made the $1. To show everyone a grim vision of things to come.
