Hi everybody, designer here. I really appreciate all the feedback; this concept is still in its infancy and can obviously use quite a bit of improvement, but I'm trying to tweak it as best I can to maximize its usability.
Couple of notes:
1. The ultimate intention is to either pull images (both satellite and decoy) from the web as they are needed or create a database of images and update it regularly. Thus identifying images as real or decoy will only work on a short-term basis; there will always be new images entering the fold.
2. If people like this concept well enough to keep at it, I'm planning to automate some kind of color-matching scheme so that it's not possible to just look at the histograms of the images and identify the satellite images thusly.
3. I'm only just starting to learn about OCR, so at this moment I have no idea whether it's worth bothering to disguise letters or even whether it's worth using letters at all. I prefer having a two-tiered approach; having to ID a satellite image AND identify characters. If the bots are too good at identifying the characters and/or it's too hard for humans, that just leaves the satellite question and from what I've read that's not a high enough level of entropy.
4. I don't have anything lined up for an audio solution just yet. I'm fooling around with a few concepts, but nothing worth mentioning just yet.
5. Thanks to all those who wrote in suggestions/solutions and signed up!
