Mostly I'm amused that you assume the pic was meant to be satanic. Symbols are what you make of them. Pentacles and pentagrams have been used by many disciplines through the ages. As a cultural shorthand (cliche) it works rather efficiently. You don't have to take my word for it, check out Anton LaVey and the Church of Satan. http://www.churchofsatan.com/home.html

The first picture seems a little cliche with the whole pentacle bit. Pentacles aren't a Satanic symbol either, they are more pagan.
Although, I do love the artwork.

Ah, it just seemed to exude a Satanic aura...not Laveyian satanism, but the perverted sterotypical one.
I retract my previous statement. :)
