I've played around with bitcoinpaperwallet, and modified the code to automatically create a unique guilloche pattern for any bitcoin address. Here is the result:

http://bitcoin.ankerl.com/generate-wallet.html
Click on "Print front", then press "randomly generate new key" a few times to see the kinds of patterns this generates.

Here is an example: http://i.imgur.com/Xnjqqcd.png

This is inspired by Identicon, where a pattern is created as a visual representation of a hash value. I want to automatically create a beautiful paper wallet pattern that is also unique, only dependent on the bitcoin address. So when you manually enter a private key in the above link, it will always generate the same pattern for the same bitcoin address.

I wonder what you all think about this? You can see my changes on github: https://github.com/martinus/bitcoinpaperwallet

The wallet look very nice and the site is decent, I will use it to create a few paper wallet, def. the best patterns I have seen so far.
I have ordered a cheap inkjet printer only to print some wallets, do you think the inkjet is going to last for long? Or should I use a laser printer?
I particularly like the fact that you have added the following alert to your website, well done!

Most of this page is actually from https://bitcoinpaperwallet.com/ which I am not part of. I have created a fork and only added the pattern generation on top of it.

Additionally, the obfuscation pattern is randomly created every time which should be safer than using a static picture.

Thanks! I've been talking with the author of bitcoinpaperwallet, maybe we'll integrate it into his site
