Opened.
How about Mike◊?
Hmm.
The problem with the Howl's Moving Castle images is that, while the castle is a good example of the trope, most still images of it don't really convey movement. Combined with the fact that its "legs" don't really look like legs at all, it may simply end up looking like a building with a strange support, which would be misleading.
I'm going to suggest a classic example: Baba Yaga's hut. Considering how many works it has appeared in, there's no shortage of images.
This one◊ is from Dungeons & Dragons.
This one is from The Sisters Grimm. I like that it shows Baba Yaga inside the hut, though it may be too dark.
This one◊ is from Talisman. I really like it!
Really, any could work.

"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."One of the Baba Yaga images could work...
Though if I have a preference, the second one (Dungeons and Dragons) is my favorite out of those.

she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportI think my favorite is also the Talisman one - although the Sisters Grimm one is pretty nice too, if only because Baba Yaga's visible.
A little concerned that her example is listed under "Tabletop Games", though. Gonna move that to a Folklore folder...

Moon◊Speaking of Baba Yaga, example from Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated [1]◊
Legs blend in too much with the surrounding trees for my tastes.
Moon◊Re: 4: That's a fair point. I think of the suggestions in this thread I like 4.4 best so far; looks more humorous than the others.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Same here, 4.4 is funny.
add a vote from me!
Didn't even look at the others, 4.4 FTW.
EDIT: The rest are great for an Image Links page.

Sure.
Check out my fanfiction!for 4.4
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?All the suggestions in 4 are okay, but I think 4.4 (the Talisman one) is the most dynamic and interesting.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Go ahead and run with 4.4.

It's up. Caption?
(Annoyed grunt)Probably should say something about Baba Yaga considering the house is usually associated with her and not any particular work.
"I like girls, but now, it's about justice."The "hut on fowl's legs" - for when Baba Yaga's flying mortar-and-pestle just isn't weird enough for her.
(...it's a bit dry, still. Tad wordy, too. Decent starting point, at least?)

Moon◊"An RV, Baba Yaga style"?

"I like girls, but now, it's about justice.""Baba Yaga: Redefining Chicken Walker since the 1700s."
I like that one.
(Annoyed grunt)It'd need a pothole to Literature.Baba Yaga given she's the source of the concept, but it works.
Moon◊I figured the pothole would be in the pic.
I actually linked it to Talisman as that was where the image apparently came from. Though that's easily alterable if necessary.
(Annoyed grunt)
Opening suggestion◊: from Howl's Moving Castle. Looks slightly similar to a shot on the current work page, but we could easily find an alternate poster for that.
