Good call to pull...definitely qualifies but that's a little too far. I'd be fine with moving the Robotnik pic on the main page to this one.

That had to go, way over the edge. Suggestion seems a good enough switch to me but it was only switched out without much comment in November last year, here's what came before.

Do we want to pull the robotnik pic from the main page, though? Or find something else to replace this one.
I'm not sure how well that demonstrates the trope. Out of everyone in the picture, only one of them qualifies as Fan Disservice, and the others aren't really reacting very badly.

Reaction Image RepositoryYeah, it's not a great pic at all but the replacement went too far the other way so we're back down to zero unless we're pulling the current from Main.Fan Disservice.

When I get home I'll see if I can get a screencap of The Ice King sans robes.
Reaction Image Repositoryx 4 Hmmmm...the overall scenario is unsettling enough that I think it could work, but other options would be good.

Just curious, but how come the current image is considered NSFW while 4 is not?
I think there's more an issue of being merely... too gross rather than NSFW. It's good but it overplays what we want and it's that whole trying not to shock the crap out of someone thing.
I don't think it's NSFW at all. Just not very appropriate for this site.
Don't think the Family Guy image works well.
Check out my fanfiction!It works.
Rather low quality, but good otherwise.

OH DEAR GOD MY EYEBALLS. Can't Unsee....
that out of the way, I think we have a winner folks
I guess...?
If it's a pic people can't unsee, I think it might be a little bit much. We don't want people to close the page in reflex.
Check out my fanfiction!18 reminds me too much of these hate-worthy lingerie ads for me approve.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanMy vote's for 12.1. It's not too shocking, but we still very much get the idea.
"It's liberating, realizing you never need to be competent." — UltimatepheerI was the one who posted that image. I apologise.
My vote is for this page to not have any images at all. Not only is Fan Disservice an inherently subjective thing that can not be objectively illustrated, but finding and posting pictures that many people would consider objectionable, disturbing, revolting etc. would be a disservice to the fans of TV Tropes.
The one thing I might accept would be something that illustrates a fan's reaction rather than the thing they are reacting too.
Yeah, the image on the western animation subpage of Fan Disservice is possibly too good of an example, and that it pushes the wiki's standards of good taste a bit far. For the moment I commented it out, just to be on the safe side. If it's just me, we can uncomment it, but I think that it edges a bit too close to being NSFW to leave on the page.
