More than just an image...
Even though the bitcoin network itself handles fundamental transaction processing, web shopping carts will need additional amounts of payment processing to match purchases to incoming payments, be notified when a payment is processed (currently bitcoin purchase can take multiple hours to be confirmed), though order fulfillment and completion.
Even a simple "donate" button will require some sort of payment processing gadgetry a la Paypal's web button engine, if you want people to provide names and/or messages along with their donation.
It's tempting to code up a button engine myself, actually...
