I have a suggestion for this page, but I am conflicted about whether it would fit.

Does Ursula count as this trope? She has a garden full of people she's duped, and she repeatedly talks about how important it is to be beautiful and appealing. But her motivations are power. Does that discount her for this trope, and thus trope image? If so, I'll find another. (Did I type the trope page name wrong or something?)

The page name has to be typed in CamelCase (no spaces). Fixed.

I was never under the impression Ursala cared about being more attractive than other people. When she does get the trident and all of that power she ditches her disguise, if she were super vain she would logically make herself prettier right?

The picture is pretty good though, if you ignore the actual context.

[up] I agree wholeheartedly. It just broke my heart after I realized Ursula just has different aspirations. But then I realized awesome that is and now I feel alright. :D

However, I switched movies and went with Snow White.

Six frames is way too many. An image should "read" in a few seconds at most IMO.

[up] agreed. [up][up] Way too crowded.

What about eliminating the first two?

  1. Odd frame sizes again.
  2. I don't see how that would make any sense to someone who doesn't know Snow White, especially that the witch and the evil queen are the same person.

Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.

Also, it's in achronological order, which furthers the confusion. This one's gonna be really hard to pull off. Don't stress it too hard. We can just leave it blank for now.

We could just use the bottom left pic with the mirror and queen.

Not sure what I am looking at in any of the suggestions.

^^ I agree, the bottom-left (third) panel large and by itself might be better than nothing.

The page is already named after Snow White, and has a quote from Snow White; so the page already assumes that people are familiar with the classic fairy tale, and I think that a picture of the queen from Snow White would certainly be fitting here.

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

Alright. Give me a moment to upload that particular panel. In the meantime... I found quite a few grim images of the lady herself, Elizabeth Bathory. And boy are they a doozy. This one is quite something but it's a bit obscure and has a lot of Gorn involved.

This one is also creepy, and features her victims. And more Gorn. Whether either image is clear is up in the air. But I thought I'd post them anyways. Can't hurt.

EDIT: here it is.

Re-clocking this one...I think [up] is pretty good.

[up] Which one? The Snow White one or the gorn ones?

[up] Sorry, the Snow White one...the first Bathory pic is a little too artsy (although good on its own) and the second is a better example of Blood Bath than this trope.
