Nice, someone made an easter egg to the skin

if it is not a default skin it is the author's way of showing his watermark or trademark

Felix's origins remain disputed. Australian cartoonist/film entrepreneur Pat Sullivan, owner of the Felix character, claimed during his lifetime to be its creator as well. American animator Otto Messmer, Sullivan's lead animator, has more commonly been assigned credit in recent decades. Some historians argue that Messmer ghosted for Sullivan. What is certain is that Felix emerged from Sullivan's studio, and cartoons featuring the character enjoyed success and popularity in the 1920s. Felix's screen career in the 1920s includes Felix Saves the Day (one of twelve made in 1922), Felix in Hollywood (1923), Felix Switches Witches (1927), and Comicalamities (1928). Year by year, the list is far too long to include here. Music wasn't neglected either; the twenties saw such memorable British hits as Felix Kept On Walking and Fido Followed Felix. In 1923 Felix the Cat made the jump to print, debuting in Britain on August 1, 1923 and in the U.S. as a King Features Sunday page on August 14, 1923 (the daily followed a few years later, on May 9, 1927). The strips are signed Pat Sullivan, although there are doubts as to whether he actually had anything to do with them. Messmer and his assistant Joe Oriolo worked on the print version of Felix as well as the films, and Bill Holman is thought to have ghosted the strip from 1932 to 1935. This first run of the syndicated Felix the Cat lasted until 1943. Felix's comic book career began in 1942 in Dell's New Funnies #66.
Felix's popularity continued from the twenties through the thirties, considered by some aficionados as the cat's Golden Age.

That looks like one of my skins, but I got the internals from a RONNCO skin, so he is the one who put it in there. and yes, it's a "watermark/trademark" so that he can tell who is using his skins/add his own personal touch. A lot of skinners do it, for example, Jesters-ink has "adult" magazine covers on a lot of his internals in his templates (the G4M, F4F, and P-39 all come to mind).
