[1]: Cement Shoes is a copyright violation. A copyright notice was cropped out and painted over. It from a site that is in the business of licensing cartoons.

Thus, pulled image:

Good image, but it needs some of the edges cropped out.

Why? Just to ruin the composition? :)

To make the relevant part of the image larger. To put the emphasis on the fact that her feet are chained to a cement block.

Took me some time to realize that that was a skeleton attached to the cement block.

I have a message from another time...

Um, yeah, skeleton isn't so good. Just a part of it, too covered in moss... Doesn't really work.

I wonder what's the source of the one suggested by Cobra...

How about something from this Making Fiends episode about the joys of Concrete Shoes?

[up][up] I love that screenshot; it's very unusual. The painting is decent as well, though.

<Edit: Gee, that typo took long enough to realise.>

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

I'd really like to have a media example for page image where possible, but that Making Friends screenshot could use some adjustments, like cropping it down to just the relevant parts and a little brightening/contrast maybe (though I'm not on my own monitor right now so that might be causing the blandness of the image).

I think that Making Fiends artstyle it too abstract to show it clearly =/

11 looks a bit too abstract to me. Most importantly, the cement and the underwater things are not very visible.

6 is more or less good.

7 is lacking in the "person" aspect.

Bump...should we crowner this? 6 seems to be the only one that has any consensus behind it.

Bump for votes. The crop of the painting's the only one in the green right now.

Second one, if any. Or a variant of mine "Her feet were too heavy" (emphasis on how the trope is dangerous)
