Doesn't show the trope, text is illegible: The Ophelia

It's a picture of a girl sitting. She doesn't look crazy, and the text is impossible to read. The caption doesn't really do anything either.

Motion to pull

Per OP's reasons, plus the pic doesn't clearly display madness in any fashion.

If the Laconic is accurate, I agree.

It's a little simplified, but accurate enough.

Bumpage.

I found this pic a while ago. I don't know if the character is from a specific show, I just got it on an imageboard. Might it be appropriate?

Link doesn't work.

You'll need to save that to an image hosting site like Photobucket to post the link here.

Sorry about that. How's this link?◊

It's a good madness pic, but I'm not feeling it for this particular trope.

How about Yasu◊? Or this◊?

Or with papers billowing around her◊.

Those are better, especially the first...those eyes are creepy.

I would suggest this picture◊, but I'm not sure if anyone agrees, or I just have Fan Myopia.

She looks crazy but not lovely/cute.

If you use one with Shannon, you're courting massive spoilers. The first one, on the other hand, has the crazy but not quite the beauty.

If you want to try one with Yasu, this one might be better. Although I'm still not in love with it.

I like the Dagnan-Bouveret painting.

Seconded.

Clock is set...any other thoughts? I'm still good with the first painting.

I like the Makovsky◊ one. She doesn't look very stable, and is fairly a looker.

Agreed.

In fact, I think she's attractive because she's nuts. That's kinda the trope there.

I have pictures of Victoria... and can get some of Tatu. Want to put up a crowner?

Sounds good.

Crowner's up...I only put in the paintings because I don't think any of the other suggestions really fit this trope.
