[HPforGrownups] Horizontal or Vertical? (was Merchandise art in general)

Now, mind you American Cover Art depicts it this way, but when i first read 
the books, my brother had taken the cover off of 1 and i only read it bc i 
finished "first among equals" and was bored at a family gathering, but i 
always pictured it vertical kind of small and between his eyebrows and up a 
bit, i dont like the thing where it takes up his entire forehead as in 
merchandising.  That is just a wee bit too pbvious for me.
