The image is just a guy, and the caption tells what his name is.

Pull. I don't think this can have a good picture.

I think that's about as good as it's going to get, other than maybe an ID or something. It's an entirely written trope.

7.2 and 7.3 work for me. The El Goonish... pic doesn't load for me.

7.2 or 7.3 for me as well (I lean toward 7.2; 7.3 looks hideous to me). El Goonish Shive picture doesn't show the trope as prominently; it's inside some other dialogue and stuff. I do think it looks better and prefer it to the Rolling Stones cover, that much I'll give it.

I like 7.2. It looks like it's saying Duran Duran Duran Duran. It made me chuckle.

Yeah, 7.2 is the best of those. A cover is slightly better than dialogue.

7.2 works well enough for me; another vote or two for it and we can put it up.

7.2, definitely.

Good enough. Can someone upload it and put it on the page? Thanks in advance. Caption or no?

Also, are either of the other pics I suggested of them better than the one that's on their page right now? I'm not that crazy about that one.

I still don't see how putting the name in the picture as opposed to the caption makes it any less JAFAAC. But if we're going along those lines, I still think this pic is better: [1]

[up][up][up]I kinda like the redscale one. Though I don't see a problem with the current.

[up]I don't see how that is better.

[up] "Duran Duran" isn't actually all that repetitive. Bobobo-Bo Bo-Bobo is. I also think it looks more interesting than five guys just standing there.

I don't see how more is better, as long as it's not more obvious. Which it isn't. And all those "interesting" parts do more to distract than help.

[up] I have to agree; that pic's way too busy.

In the Duran Duran images it's possible to deduse that it's the name of the group.

In 16 it's clearly the name of the manga, but I can't tell if the manga is named after a character/a group of character, or if it's a Mac Guffin or whatever.

I'm gonna go ahead and lock this one since we're not debating a caption.
