Duplicate Image: Physical God

Crossover Cosmology, Physical God, and Age of Mythology all have that picture of Zeus, though two of the images have him mingled with other gods. Is that close enough to be a same image? If so, there doesn't seem to be another image for the 'standard' version of Age of Mythology, so I'd keep it there. I'd also like to keep the image on Crossover Cosmology, as it's a really nice picture for that, too.

CC and AoM are fine; I think the Physical God image could be better though, maybe a deity interacting with the physical world?

While Zeus is indeed an example of a physical god, this image doesn't show that; so I think we should replace it.

I also think we should replace the one on Age Of Mythology by a screenshot, to avoid using duplicates.

Speaking personally, the cover on Age of Mythology is fine for me. Physical God could use a different image and Crossover Cosmology needs text removal.

A more humourous and unexpected suggestion... What about something from Bruce Almighty? [1]◊

Or one of the less-often-mentioned-on-this-site pantheons; the Hindu god of rain and thunderstorms, Indra? [2]◊

Lastly, what about Ba'al? [3]◊

That picture of Zeus looks like Powers That Be, not "similar emotions, virtues, vices, etc. but with more power." 5.1 is better but it looks so goofy. What about Eris, Goddess of Discord [1]◊ [2]◊?

Both of those are giving me a "no hotlinking" message, even with dragging them to the addy bar.

How about this image◊ from A Link To The Past?

I like on the levels that:

• It shows the goddesses blowing wind, thus being physical manifestations of natural phenomena.
• It shows worshippers on the ground kneeling before the goddesses.

I don't know why they wouldn't show up. If you Google "Eris, Goddess of Discord Sinbad," I was looking at the one in the top right corner and bottom left corner. In both the goddess is bigger than the the mortal and looking emotional.

While their powers have physical effect, the pics don't necessarily show or mean that the goddesses have physical, corporeal forms themselves.

@6: Yes, the Bruce Almighty image looks goofy. But then, that was the idea behind the nomination since we don't have to and shouldn't be so serious all the time. But if you wanted something more serious, I feel 5.3 (Ba'al) fits that bill.

The links in 6 work if you copy and paste. Depending on browser, dragging a link to the address bar may still count as following the link, it'll just tell the browser to do it in this tab if it'd normally do it in another tab.

That worked, but I'm not really getting "god" out of them.

I think this might be the one Lexicon found.

The Eris images didn't 403 on me when I dragged them into the address bar - guessing they did for Willbyr since his browser'd already cached the 403, or something.

Anyway, yes, that is one of the images he found.

#13 says "giant person" but not "godlike" I don't think.

That's my main issue.

I like 2 and 3 in 5.

I say 5.2 and I don't care for any of the others suggested thus far.

More of Eris.◊

And human-sized.◊

First one is nice.

I don't think Eris is as strong as several of the other suggestions.

Well, I don't get 'god' from 5.2 or 'physical' from 8 or 5.3.

He just looks like a mythic hero to me.

Really? 5.2 seems weaker in the physical department than the god department. Weirdly and sadly, 5.1 may be the best suggested so far.

How about Hercules◊? I like how it contrasts the standard Physical God and the hand of the god representing more of a Powers That Be god.

^ I think that is the best suggestion so far.
