What's the statute on non-example page images again?
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanGonna be way easier to suggest an improvement, than suggest leaving the page blank.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Throw in The Master and call it a day.
But how? There's got to be a good image of one of his monstrous deeds, and I'm betting the famous image of him giving a double thumbs up while gassing an entire cabinet meeting has already been used somewhere.
A good picture of Davros could do. All that said, I'm fine with this remaining imageless. Most CM subpages don't have page images anyways, and it's not like they're mandatory.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.I dunno, eating people? Turning the doctor into a shriveled midget? Turning everyone into himself? Gassing his cabinet? The list goes on.
Let's just pull it for now and discuss what would be a substitute here. Sound good?
I now go by Graf von Tirol.No. Nobody seconded the motion to pull.
I like the Davros suggestion◊ in the old thread though. JAFAAC? Yes, but less worried about that on a work-specific subpage. At least he looks evil. And is an example.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Still JAFAAC, and I believe we still should have something actually monstrous (aside from appearance) for there to be an image.
Once again, I'm fine with having this imageless like most other CM subpages are.
I now go by Graf von Tirol.A search on deviantArt for the Master didn't really turn up anything good, so I'm good to pull the current and go without unless someone can find something.
Clock is set.

I'll second the Davros pic.◊

That does not illustrate the trope at all. It's not a deformed person.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIs Davros perchance the creator of the Daleks? Then we could make a double panel image with current and the 1st Davros pic.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanDavros made the Daleks.◊ There's quite a few pics◊ with both. Like the last one best, myself.
As that last one is something that's actually being sold through that site, the chances of us getting permission to use it are slim to nil.
Dunno, they are selling a 24" x 36" poster, not a 302px x 452px image file. It is worth asking.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.I haven't been impressed with any of the Davros suggestions, honestly.
There's certainly no limit of Complete Monsters, or pictures of them when it comes to Dr Who. How about one of The Master?
Don't think either the Davros or Master suggestions illustrate very well. Voting BUPKIS.
"Polite life will fill you full of cancer." - Iggy Pop "I've seen the future, brother, it is murder." -Leonard CohenThat is still Just A Face And A Caption.
Otherwise, I still like to have a multi part image with Davros and current, but I don't have the image making tools for that.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanNot impressed with any of the suggestions being seen. Again, I'm all for leaving this imageless. Most CM subpages don't have one, or need one.

I now go by Graf von Tirol.The clock's up. I'm going to make an executive decision and remove the pic due to the CM thread excluding the Daleks from consideration for the trope. If someone finds something later on that works, we can re-address this. Locking up.
As part of a continuation of the Complete Monster special efforts thread, we long determined that the Daleks don't qualify on account of being a group, and furthermore Davros deliberately wired their emotions to only register hate, depriving them of moral agency to be an actual monster. Therefore, "Poor Image". On that account:
Motion to pull
