I want to mod my gear!

I'd suggest making a pad composed of 3 layers, similiar to the suggestion above. On bottom would be the picture of the GF, followed by a thin layer of plastic. Use some 800 (or higher if you can find any) grit sandpaper to rough it up and give it some texture. Make sure to give it enough texture for the mouse to track on it, but remember that you want to be able to see your GF through it. Then put a third transparent film over it, such as another layer of plastic, so that the pad will still be smooth enough to glide the mouse over.
