I made this as a Gift for Serenity Santa 2006 at LJ, plus two variations (I'll put the links to those, if you'd like to see them). I love Wash and Zoe. They were such a wonderful couple. I love Joss, but damn him for taking half of Zoe's heart away.
Variation 1 (the simple one):
Variation 2 (with lyrics from "Lucky" by Bif Naked):

Again, a breath-taking work. :) The banner across, and font (again) are exquisite. And I love how I get a Serenity-living-room-wallpaper-feel from those flowers. :) I can't make out the text entirely on the green; something 'bout "no more," at the end of a sentence; but I can distinguish, erm, no more. :) The good part is that it matters none. This is a poignant tribute to the love between Wash and Zoe, and highly artistically done with all the scratches and curves, and other ways to make it feel "old".
And the decolorized upper band is downright ingenius, in the way it portrays that they, as a couple, no longer exists (kinda like a forecasting shadow). As a means to convey that message, it's both subtle and powerful. Getting all choked up here; honestly, there could be tears (in a non-sarcastic way).

The text (aside from Wash & Zoe) isn't supposed to be readable. It's only for decoration. It's the so-called tiny text. Though that one does look big enough one could read something off it if they squinted very hard. :o)
And, asarian, thank you so much. Your comments and your incredible interpretations on the graphics are wonderful and really make a person's day.

I would love to know how you did the dust and scratches. If my photoshop talky thread in talk story is still visible, I would very much appreciate you swinging by. This is sooo stunning!

Oh...this is just freaking beautiful, Xeyra!
Strangely, it's the "main" background (the colourized shot of Wash and Zoe...in the Alliance scout vessel on Miranda?) that really works for me cuz it gives the shot a "Star Trek" vibe that seems to work for these two right at this moment;)

Yep, that's the Alliance shuttle they find on Miranda. This is a promo shot from that scene.

This is an exceptional, first-rate, incomparable, high quality piece of work Xeyra. Looks like something you would pay someone to make professionally.
And I really like how you have a part of their heads in grayscale up the top. It reminds me of an old film reel.
Exceptional.
