I acquired 2 large x-rays of myself ...?

I like mike's design - My friend's girlfriend is an xray lab tech, and she has a tonne of them (pics of her and classmates from university for xray lab techs). They make AWESOME window coverings. Other plan is make a light-box like doctor's style, and hang them flat on the wall. Cheap and forever: Use christmas led strings inside a box with a sheet of tissue or crepe paper over them to diffuse the light. They don't get hot and use tiny power.

If you only have 2 x-rays I'd suggest a bowed design. Not sure how to describe it, but if you looked from teh top down it'd look like this: () Then just a simple base in the middle with a bulb (low heat, maybe a CFL).
