This was the picture previously on it.

This was what Ny Batteri changed it to, with the edit reason that "I believe the previous image on this article wasn't very good at demonstrating the trope, so I changed it."

I dislike the use of gore in page images, but I suppose the first image wasn't that good either. Any suggestions?

I...can't say I like all that gore.

Ok, maybe these two, side by side, note the difference between the art style and the setting. I'd like something better, though.

Oh, have you PM'ed the aforementioned troper about how he isn't supposed to pull images arbitrarily?

I just reverted it. Even if the replacement was the best image in the whole wide world, we can't let this sort of thing go by, especially when the troper is openly flouting this:

Gory pics like that are textbook NSFW and are never OK; good show on the revert. Did anyone PM him/her?

We certainly need to PM him. His edit history also shows he made some edit on the definition of Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism. Can we do that without discussion?

[up] It was just some word trimming; nothing critical to the actual definition was changed as far as I can tell. Take everything to Ask The Tropers?

I'd like to bump to ask whether anyone still cares about this. I think the current picture is at least O.K., so are we going to try and get a better one, or should we just lock the thread?

Yeah, we're done here. Locking up; I'll tag the page accordingly.
