Oh, how I wish I had a better picture to offer yous guys, but my digital cam is about as ghetto as they come so I hope it's enough for all of you to work with.

To help illustrate the pic, this is a sticker that I bought a long time ago and have since attached to my computer case along with a collage of other fun stickers. I'm hoping that it's a reproduction from a real deck as I really like the imagery.
Specifically, it's the 8 of Swords. It depicts a woman with black hair, blindfolded and bound amidst 8 swords. She has black wings, spread out behind her and is wearing some kind of gothic/bondage/lingerie getup. Regardless of the lingerie, the art style is really cool and I like the card a lot. I'd like to find the deck that it comes from, but I've looked all over with a series of keywords and haven't turned up anything. I hope you guys recognize it.

The image is far away, we don't see much. I used a lens to see it better. It looks pretty indeed, with the wings and the gothic style. I don't know this deck though. Can you make the card closer so that people who don't have a lens can see it? It has a fantasy look, you should check decks in that category.
Edit:
You're lucky that I'm anal, I just zoomed the card for you.

I tried to get as close as I could with the camera but the thing doesn't have any sort of auto or manual focus. Get too close to the object being photographed and it winds up extremely blurry.
Sorry guys. I know it's not much to go on, but it's the best I could do.

Could you host the zoom version along with your picture? It costs me points each times someone takes a look at it. You should keep both images as a few details appear better in your picture than in the zoomed version I did. I'll take the link down in a week. Good luck!
