How about giant geckos and (possibly) other monsters with the wall clinging ability?

well yeah, all clinging monsters could use a side view.

I'm thinking of working on this; trying to figure out which all monsters have clinging. Is there a list somewhere? Additionally, is there a resource where I can easily find a given monster's image (rather than manually searching through the composite image "player.png")? Forgive my noobishness; I'm new around here.

It's done by monster genus:
bool monster::can_cling_to_walls() const
{
    return (mons_genus(type) == MONS_SPIDER || type == MONS_GIANT_GECKO
            || type == MONS_GIANT_COCKROACH || type == MONS_GIANT_MITE
            || type == MONS_DEMONIC_CRAWLER);
}

Members of those are: spider, tarantella, jumping spider, wolf spider, trapdoor spider, redback; giant gecko; giant cockroach; giant mite; demonic crawler.

You'll find the images in the sources in rltiles/dc-mon, most of them in the animal subfolder.
