Surely there is a much higher quality picture around of the Winnie the Pooh characters hugging?

Here are a couple suggestions for alternatives...

Something tells me we're going to need an image links page for these good suggestions.

But I like the Winnie The Pooh suggestion better...and here is said image wikisized.

Yeah, we're going to need a crowner for this one. Basically all the suggested images work pretty well.

Crowner's up. I only used the first MLP suggestion because of the cropping on the second and in the third, it looks like Pinkie has everyone in her arms (legs?) instead of everyone hugging everyone else. If someone wants to add them, go ahead.

The MLP one has 3 up votes and 1 down vote, yet it's 4 points in the green. Seems like there's a glitch in the crowner.

Yeah, I was wondering about that...it now says plus nine....despite the fact that the two nays should make it plus seven...

On a sidenote, here is a version without the hub logo. Should it replace the current one in the crowner?

On a separate note, I think I like the Winnie The Pooh version the most.

I dislike the Winnie the Pooh one because it does not quite look like they are hugging, more that they are gathered around with their arms over each others' shoulders.

With the MLP one and the Avatar one, their faces are closer together, giving off the "hug" part much more clearly.

As of this post the MLP one has 12 up votes, 6 down votes, is 8 points in the green, and its ratio is 2:1. The ratio is right, but the net score is wrong. What is wrong with the crowner, and how (if at all) can it be fixed?

Well I disagree...I think the WTP is very obvious that they are all hugging the usually depressed Donkey.

Which sort of makes it very sweet.

We'll just have to note the proper vote tallies as we go...the ratios are correct. Right now, the order should be Winnie (+7), Avatar (+6), and MLP (+5).

You need to be familiar with the show to know that the donkey is usually depressed. Images are not supposed to rely on familiarity with the show.

[up]Even then, that's clearly a Group Hug in that pic, I can't see anyone mistake it for anything else, really.

They're all perfectly clear.

Really, this one just comes down to "I like the way this one looks more than I like the way that one looks."

I'd be happy to see any of them on the page.

[up]This, basically. All the pics work fine; it's a question of what picture everybody thinks looks best.

[up] That, and the pic's style. Despite not being very familiar with Avatar The Last Airbender, I find its pic marginally more fitting than the MLP one because it is a bit more serious-looking, which I think should be the default for tropes whose examples have varying degrees of funniness.

Still though, I find both much more fitting than the Winnie one, as the pic does not strike me as hugging at that point in time. At best they look vaguely like they are about to hug, but I still think the MLP and Avatar one (but especially the latter) are better for the page.
