I have a bunch of panels so figure I could toss any vast one-color blocks and bits dominated by straight lines. What do you think? Can the Caped Crusader pull it off?
Do you have a hinged mirror? If you place it open on the fabric so you can see 6 images in it, then slide it along the width of your panel. If you like what you see, then go ahead and use Batman. If you see too much solid color = blue and red for instance,, then I'd opt for a different print.
