I rather like these, especially the Top Heart and Bottom Heart.

If you want to break the colorbound nature, what if you were to make the Bottom Heart's moves orthogonal instead of diagonal? It's furthest range would be a Knight's move instead of a Camel's, but it could reach every square on the board. (Or, you could use this idea to replace one of the other hearts.)

PS: Try Musketeer's Board Painter and see how it suits you for making diagrams.
