I can't get myself to throw these out because I think there must be a cool project for them.
sorry but i really do not think that using pallets for a base is a good idea the wood is to thin with the weight of the pavers plus people i think it will give way at some point also the wood is quite thin and will begin to bow and rot sorry to be a kill joy but it could save you a lot of trouble later on if you did not go down this route.From your photo it looks like you are going to lay the pavers on the pallets is this correct?
