Instead of using libcaca to convert images to chunky coloured text, please consider using libsixel, which allows (sufficiently capable) terminals to render proper bitmap graphics.

This should make it easier to see what that sticker is supposed to be.

Hi,
This has already been discussed here: #2 . The main conclusion is that it won't be easy (and even rather hard) to print the image on scrolling lists, however having the image on top of the rest of the interface (on a key stroke for example) might be possible.
I don't have much time to implement that atm, but maybe someone else can.
