Quality is iffy at best, and it shouldn't be too hard to replace. I like this one.

Proposed replacement is an improvement, quality-wise.

It's a lateral move for content, quality is a boost so it's a [tup] for me.

I like the current one better even if it have a lower image quality. The OP is just a 'sweet' themed image with some girl, and the pink hearts doesn't help.

And the current is better than the suggestion why? I am not seeing it.

Basically, what I'm seeing is a lot of hearts and a girl posing with cupcakes.

I see that, plus a spoon, in the current too. Same for lu's suggestion, except for the dirty mouth instead of a spoon.

The suggestion has higher quality, but I find the current more interesting and makes it clearer that it's a character who really like sweets rather than someone just being cute.

I think you want "The suggestion has higher quality..."

Here's a higher quality version of the current:

[up] Honestly, the clutter in the replacement suggestion leads me to [tdown] it; the improved version of the current gets my [tup].

While the suggested quality improvement for the current is higher-quality, I can't help but think it looks a bit vertically-stretched (or horizontally-squished, depending on your vantage point).

[up] It does seem compressed, but that may just be due to the screen cap from either a standard or widescreen tv.

Out of all the suggestions for 14, I think 14.1 was the one that worked and would say it's better than what's there now and better than the retouched version of it. 14.2 is a stock image so an immediate no, 14.3 has too many things which aren't sugary, 14.4 is nice but doesn't tell the trope and 14.5 is okay but blurriness counts against it.

[up] For now, 14.1 is my ultimate choice. [tup]

However, had I realized 14.2 was Stock, I wouldn't have listed it.

Its easy to find "sugar only" versions of 14.3 if you so desire.

And 14.5 is from the early days so... here is the toy and a better yet, copyrighted cell

Some pretty good options across the thread, might need to take it to a crowner but damn if it isn't so heavy on Homer's trademark food and general gluttony. The idea for the images is good but he doesn't represent Sweet Tooth to me, he's just a Big Eater and sweet foods are still food, not that he has a specific character-driven reason to like sweet stuff in general.

None of the Homer pics work for me, and I don't really like the Ranma pic because she looks more disgusted than excited (in my opinion, anyway). More suggestions: [1][2][3][4]

[up] 20.2 gets broken by the forum, 20.3 doesn't lead to the image it should. Other than that, some are good but not topping 14.1 for me, definitely needs a crowner.

[up] I'll be clear, NO to 22.3 but 22.1 and 22.4 are good.

Okay, crowner has been made, waiting for a hook and I might have missed a few suggestions but 17 is an awful lot so...

Crowner's hooked.

Gotta say, that Peppermint Patty pic is kinda gross.

Gotta say that both "Donut Hell" images are very close to the pic on Unishment.
