cookie recipes with pics for the holidays?

I am going out of state for Christmas to see my in laws for the first time and I want to make some cookies. I love looking at a picture before I bake them so I know what they should look like. I usually dont think about Christmas until after Thanksgiving but I need to decide what cookies I want (variety). If there is a website that gives out recipes with a picture to it that would be great. Thank you.

Cookie recipes that can withstand being shipped to Iraq for Halloween/Thanksgiving?
