Opening because the doppelgänger aspect is easier to see in the old one.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanI tend to agree, but there's enough similarities between the two in the pic that's up now that it makes sense to me, plus the reaction of the one in the foreground and the expression and posture of the one facing us really work for me. Quality could be better, though.
I actually prefer the new image, because the old one look more like twins.
I prefer the woman. They clearly look the same, and her reaction adds to the other one not being something normal, like a twin or other mirror image. Don't see a quality issue at all.
The other one looks like it could be any of several twin tropes.

Check out my fanfiction!I also prefer the new one. It's more clearly a person encountering her exact double and reacting to it.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.The new image is better. The old one looks more like Sibling Yin-Yang to me.
Yep I like the new one.
This index isn't about exact doubles as well there is even a trope in the index just about identical costumes.
Edit: a static version of this gif?◊ I can get an HD shot if it's a hopeful idea.

That gif just looks like twins. I'm really partial to the reaction in the current image. It really helps sell the trope.
Here's a slightly better image quality since people were complaining. Old is top. New is bottom.

Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickI can see there's a slight size/cropping change, but quality? Can't tell the difference.
Check out my fanfiction!I only did it because people upthread were commenting on it. Honestly though, the current image is fine.

Found a Youtube Channel with political stances you want to share? Hop on over to this page and add them.I like the new one yeah. The reaction sells it.
Add my support to the new image.
Looks like it's unanimous: the new image is better. I think we're good with closing this?
I've tagged the page to keep the pic. Caption or no?
I think the current image describes it fine without a caption. The reaction within the image is explanation enough.

At least, I couldn't find a discussion in a search.
From this◊, by justanid, given reason: "replaced non-demonstrative image."
That may be so, but again, I don't see any discussion of it. Perhaps we can do so now.
