I dunno, it looks like a spirit. Better suggestion?

That works, yes. Better than current, although it might need a caption.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanIt's not a blurry image of a lion. It's a lion in the clouds with light shining around him.
That still means jack to this trope.
The Luke + Obi-wan pic, paired with a good caption, would be a decent option.
Current looks plenty spiritual to me, and I'm not a huge fan of the suggestion.
Rhymes with "Protracted."Just being a spirit does not make it this trope, its missing the second part.
No, but it's certainly not just "a blurry image of a lion" either.
It's a Keep Until Better Image Suggested for me; I don't think the Star Wars one is better.

Rhymes with "Protracted."Well had I never seen the movie it just looks like a lion walking through clouds which says nothing about being a spirit. Having a Blue Glow Ghost Lights (whenever that Trope gets fixed...) and just a bit seethrough while talking to someone just screams spirit and adviser.

I agree that it's not just "a blurry image of a lion" and "Keep Until..."
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.The current may not be just a blurry picture of a lion, but it still looks awful (and rather like a typical blurry Dream Sequence, for that matter).
I'm not particularly wowed by 7.1, but Obi-Wan does at least look old enough to be an advisor. I'd definitely pick that one as the better of the two images.
My own suggestion would be to cherry-pick some of Eugene Greenhilt's first appearance. Sure, he's doing a bad job as a spirit adviser, but he's illustrating it well.
I prefer the current, although 7.1 isn't bad.

Check out my fanfiction!Quick Tip when you get an "No referral" or "no permission" error on a linked image:
Click in the address bar which contains the image URL. Press Enter. This will reload the image without using the referrer. That may let you see the image.
I've tested this in all the browsers I have available: Chrome, Firefox, and Internet Explorer. I can view the image in 3 perfectly fine this way.
Or drag the URL to a new tab. Managed to open @3 that way, although @5 still gives me a 404.
Anyway, it's 3/7.1 > current > 7.2 > 19 for me.
I prefer 7.1
Clock is set.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanAlthough the quality of the 7.1 picture could be better, I will default to it too over the current if no better suggestion is offered.
The picture is just a blurry image of a lion. Added 2 days ago. Typical Fan Myopia, I'd say, it doesn't illustrate anything.
