Does #71 need the left-hand panel? I can't see how the two panels are linked, and the right one works fine by itself.

The image is the last two panels of a four panel strip, I had to remove the first two to get the size down. Check the link to see the whole thing.

If you just use the right panel people will have no idea who the statement ("They're staring right at you!") refers to.

[up] Exactly; the 2-panel version works fine.

P.S: I don't see how the MLPFIM is an example of Breaking the fourth wall at all.
A real-life picture with a character clearly popping out of the medium they're supposed to be contained in to say "hello" to the audience watching them? Clearly an example of breaking the fourth wall, if a bit more literally than needed.

How do you add a crowner? Is that something only the mods can do?

[up] Yup. You can create a crowner, link to it in a post, and then Holler that post to get the crowner hooked.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Well, so far the results have been...unexpected. Either there are a lot of people that really like the current image, really hate the possible replacements, or something involving socks..

I don't think that's unexpected at all. Consensus in the thread seems to be "current is fine". It's an example, but there are lots of examples. The other suggestions are okay, but they're not better, merely different.

Another Bump

Edit: Well, barring a sudden flood of voters it looks like this is over. The other candidates can sit in the articles image section.

Yep, this one's done. I'll tag the page to reflect the decision; the Image Links page is built. Locking up.
