I will discuss ways in which representation spheres of specific finite (or profinite) groups can describe elements in chromatically interesting Picard groups, including the quintessential Picard group of the K(n)-local category. This is based on work joint with Beaudry, Bobkova, Goerss, Henn, Hill, and Pham.
