It is based on the 'digital watermarks' many people give their images and video clips to prevent them from being copied when they are put online. The watermark is a device that transfered easily from the analogue use to the digital. The same is true of the font - 'courier'. The 50% grey is used as it is the normal tone to use when creating watermarks. (R128:G128:B128)
*edit* ok for some reason it isn't very legible when uploaded here... I think its because it's scaled down so much and the colours are all wrong - the actual thing is legible down to about 2cm by 2cm
