Not bad, but the aspect ratio's kinda screwy.
(For some reason I thought this was the "I'm cooking eggs." "I like an egg on occasion." Mexican Standoff one. Apparently that's Gunpoint Banter. Okay.)

Moon◊If you can fix the artifacting, I'll support it.
Changed the aspect ratio
5 is good for me.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman5 is very good. (And woo, the first Horrible Histories image I've yet seen!)
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.5 is definitely better quality. Also what about some witty reference to Three Hundred as a caption?

Apart from the fact that it's 300, I have no idea - partially, because I do not know the work.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanThe trope already has an image, shown below, which I think is actually better than the suggestion.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
The suggestion shows two people talking causally to each other while in the middle of a fight. The current is a bit too busy and I can't clearly see the casual dialogue aspect.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAgreed
This picture shows Spartans, hence the idea for a Three Hundred reference.
I think 5 has the edge, mainly because it's more obvious that the banter has no relation to the battle.
Absent-minded professor and Neverwinter Nights DMThe current has action going on. It's kind of clear someone gets punched, but the business of the image doesn't help. The Horrible Histories one has a battle. It's also rather busy, but almost all weapons point towards the somewhat clearer centre, which immediately brings your attention to them being the targets of everyone else. Also, they're showing very casual expressions and body language about it.
The current has a lot of text. You need to read it to understand what it's about. It's not clear until the second or third bubble it has nothing to do with the battle. The HH one has little text you can read at a glance, and it's immediately obvious they're catching up on things unrelated to the battle.
Summa summarum, the HH suggestion is better due to illustrating the casual aspect, and it's is much clearer on the text. It wins all three of Clear Concise Witty.

One of my deciding factors is how quickly an image can get the point across. The current takes a little long to read. The OP is bad quality, so that gets in the way, but 5 is perfect. Crisp, clear, and to the point.

Image Source. Please update whenever an image is changed.Definitely go w/ 5.
Moon◊One or two more votes for 5 and we can run with it.
I think Rethkir said it best. 5 gets the point across so much quicker than the current. It's straight to the point without sacrificing humor. It has my vote.
Bigotry will NEVER be welcome on TV Tropes.Good enough. The new pic's up, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no? I'm thinking a 300 reference would be good but I've got nothing right now suggestion-wise.
"Are their arrows blotting out the sun?"
"Eh, that's fine. We can talk in the shade."
Works for me. I'll note it was basically on the page I found the image.

Check out my fanfiction!Works for me.
I think it should lose the "eh, that's fine" and be generally more active:
