Just a Face and a Caption: Adaptational Attractiveness

For some reason, the former trope image was removed and later replaced with the current one. This annoys me because, not only is the new image Just A Face And A Caption, but the image it replaced seemed to illustrate the trope just fine.

So, should I just switch it back, or is there anything else that needs to be addressed first?

Former image for reference:

Somebody really screwed the pooch here. That Barbie doll picture and caption is just plain awful, but to think it replaced a picture that was actually a good demonstration and example baffles me. I really think we should put the original back, no crowners. I got no idea why the current pic should be kept at all.

Yep, put the original back up. Current is just horrible.

please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.

The current is more Girliness Upgrade but isn't as good as the current on there

Definitely reverse image replacement. Original was the trope. This... I dunno.

Yeah, the new image is really awful unless you're familiar with the character and/or source. I also vote to bring back the original image.

I can't think of anything good for a signature.

I flipped the pic back...it needed to be resized, and the caption size was way bigger than it needed to be, so some good did come from this.

So, I take it that takes care of everything?

Yeah, I think we can go ahead and lock this one up.
