An Art Question for KoS readers :)

Does anybody who is reading King of Swords have any suggestions for images that would work for Chapter, Banner, or icon art that you feel would suit the story?  I'm thinking of doing this myself (and talesofsnape has generously offered, too), but I'm actually also curious what readers think.  Reviews consistently describe the story as very visual -- so... what images come to mind?

*bounces with curiosity 

ETA:  See the banner/icon that [livejournal.com profile] talesofsnape  made for me?  Isn't it wonderful?

The Heather card, before Hermione and Severus heeded its bidding.

Or a portrait of them with her hair all wild in an Art Deco style, in a frame, suggesting the Honeysuckle card.

The doorway opening, definitely definitely. My favorite.

Neville hacking away with a machete (King of Swords!).

Various cards glowing in various colors.

But most of all, what I'd love to see is Machshefa dressed as the Muggle tarot reader, looking intently at cards just spread out with curiosity and a slight, proper sense of dread at the uncanny.
