Good point and ok suggestions, although those mostly reveal a bit more than the typical trope example, in that her thong is visible in most of them. The screen should be a bit more concealing than a single layer of sheer curtain..
Opening for discussion.

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.3.2 seems reasonable.
3.2 is excellent. 3.1 not so much, since there's nothing indicating what is doing the screening to render her just a silhouette.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.+1 for 3.2
I'm not too fond of the coloration and business, but it works.
Check out my fanfiction!3.2
Here in proper size:
Looks better than I thought, actually.
Check out my fanfiction!I would have favored a picture also showing the embarrassed man looking away, as per the description, but this can work.
There's nothing that says he has to be embarrassed. Also says "usually", which may or may not actually be true, but isn't part of the definition.
Check out my fanfiction!My biggest problem with 3.2 is her tail is incredibly distracting. Not knowing the work, I spent more time thinking "what the hell is that?" than actually looking at the image.
Still better than the current, which is actively misleading (in fact, I totally didn't know what the trope was until this topic, I thought the Bond girls counted).
EDIT: Honestly, this might need to go to TRS. About half the examples are like the Bond girls, while the others fit the description of Silhouette Censor.

Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.That one and the first in are good, too.
Yeah, 13.2 is good.
Check out my fanfiction!I like 13.1 for obvious reasons, but 13.2 is great as well.
13.2 would get my preference too. 13.1 has that distracting sphere, and is a bit too suggestive.
"Too suggestive"?
Check out my fanfiction!The Minerva Mink one certainly meets the trope's criteria, and it's done to show what she's doing (showering) without actually throwing her in front of the camera with only soap suds for cover. This was a children's cartoon, after all.
I can see the Doronjo image #2, except for the goofball leering outside. Is the voyeur really necessary to the trope? Really? And I'm mindful that The Supreme Chief nearly nuked Naughty Tentacles for the same perversion factor.
Now, the Chicago dance number in the prison provides multiple instances, however none of them involve a screen. Everyone is backlit, yes, but no screen. No, jail cell bars don't count. Unless we rewrite the trope's parameters.
One other example offered comes from Disney's Mulan as Mulan is being prepped for her appointment with the Matchmaker. She pulled behind a dressing screen, denuded, and plunked in a wooden tub of bathwater. Image is here, just add the http:tvtropes.org prefix: /pmwiki/pub/images/d7f8923ac01d7ae4634bbb760a50773d.PNG
If not the Mulan one, then my vote has to go to Minerva Mink, who has a reason to be naked behind a flimsy barrier.
crowner?
Blank crowner's hooked, no time to fill right now.
Think this is good enough to call?
Let's give it another day or two...I just now voted on it.
Crown Description:
Nominations for replacement images:
The current picture is at odd with the trope description, which speak about a sexy silhouette behind a backlighted screen. As stylish as most James Bond intro are, this isn't it.
I understand we'd want to keep this SFW. This page gives some nice options, I think.
