I think the current illustrates the trope better, what with the explicit contrast to the other portrayal of rich people.

But it's blurry.
That was why I thought about starting the thread in the first place.
The only reason why it's "Suggestion" instead of "Poor Image" is because I had second thoughts about making this thread for that reason.
Hmmm... The Simpsons art is always like that, or does anyone have a better screenshot?

Hi
I think we may want to steer away from this particular pic, just based on this
◊...that makes the character the complete opposite of the trope, correct?
Correct, it's about a benevolent rich person.

Going to need more explanation about what he says before I agree with this logic.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard Feynman"Well, what do you expect? These yokels are all Baltic Avenue." Baltic Avenue is in the cheapest teir of properties in Monopoly (as in, for poor people.) That is condescending towards the crowd who is "fat-cat bashing." The dialog is showing him agreeing with Mr. Burns, not acting as a foil to him. The image itself just shows him sitting next to Mr. Burns, not contrasting with him.

Hi
In the current, UP is sitting next to a CCE, but there isn't any sort of contrast I don't think, neither of them are doing much besides sitting. I like the suggestion: could be better, but definitely way higher on the Benevolent-O-Meter, which is key.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.
OK, that has me convinced: Switch the images.

The current doesn't show any benevolence, but the suggestion in the OP just shows him tipping his hat, not being fun or helping people.

The picture shows him being polite, a trait often associated with being friendly.
Hi
Clock is set.
Have to agree. Politeness = friendliness is not that big a stretch.

How about this
◊? Seems to appear more fun/friendly?
Yeah, that one works for me.

I like 16.

No, the other one.
Echo.

16 demonstrates it better then mine, I think.
Hi
16 works well enough for me. One or two more ![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
votes and we can run with it...provided we get them, crop out the dice or leave them?

I like that one as well. Don't care either way about the dice.

Hi
With that, the new pic's up, potholed, and tagged. Caption or no?
Hi
Hearing nothing, let's lock up.
Perhaps we could change the image to this
◊, as it demonstrates Uncle Pennybags being friendly.
