Dense Caption

Four identical pixelated images arranged in a 2x2 grid on a solid red background. Each image features a bright pink heart shape with black text: 'i' at the top, followed by 'love', then 'chad', then '11-4-07', and finally '<333333'. The hearts have soft edges typical of early digital graphics. All four images are visually identical; no animation changes or differences between observations.
