Tiger picture on door

Dear Cecil
Is there any positive or negative effect if a picture of a tiger(mouth opened) is paste on a door facing outwards?
Thank you.

Dear Jo,
1. Usually no one does that especially pasting it e.g. on a main entrance door.
(Under commonsense), it would not be appropriate to come up to the main door and greeted by a tiger with its mouth opened.
2. For the belief on `guardians' of the main door , for example, usually, they come in pairs e.g. two lion statues on each side of the door.
3. Even in some Chinese homes or temples, you see two door Gods on each side of the door.
4. Perhaps, one can have two split image of the tigers on a door. But usually this is not the norm but rarely if some does it.
Warmest Regards,
Cecil
