At the exit of Pirates of the Caribbean in Florida, Guests must board a "rolling gangplank" to take them back up to Caribbean Plaza. Take a close look at the moving belt, and you'll notice that pirates have passed this way.
The practice of painting images on beltways helps with safety, so that Guests might look down to notice that the floor ahead is moving and take appropriate precautions. It also provides an opportunity to add one more detail to the story. In this case, the footprints of a peg-legged pirate.
In other examples, the moving beltway at the Haunted Mansion features bats flying along, and there are rays swimming forth on the belt at The Seas with Nemo & Friends.
