Image Suggestion Thread (New Crowner May 19 2024):

Go To

This thread is dedicated to image suggestions for pages without pics (including those pulled by Image Pickin'). Guidelines:

  1. Please read How to Pick a Good Image and Just a Face and a Caption before suggesting an image. Additionally, make sure to source the image in your post.
  2. If you have multiple suggestions you'd like to field for a single page, that can merit its own thread. Otherwise, use this thread.
  3. It is recommended that you upload your suggestions as you would like them to be formatted on the page.
  4. A crowner will be generated with suggestions which will be voted on as normal:
    • The crowners will generally run 12-15 items at any given time and may go as high as 20 if there's a backlog of suggestions, so please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
    • After 3 days, any options with a net vote count of ≥10 can be put on their respective pages. After 5 days, this can apply to options with a net vote count of ≥7. Anything below that will need to go the full 7 days.
    • After 7 days, generally the unprocessed options that have a positive vote count (2:1) can go up on their respective pages. Old thread rule, no longer enforced
  5. Suggestions will generally be processed and added to crowners in the order they come into the thread.
  • Selected images will be tagged using this template (which goes above the image):
%% Image selected via crowner in the Image Suggestion thread: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1452266899092104700
%% crowner link
%% Please do not change or remove without starting a new thread.
  • If one or more previous images on the page were pulled, those forum links should remain on the page as well, but the accompanying templates should be replaced by:
%% Previous image removed per Image Pickin' thread:
  • Captions selected by crowner will be tagged using this template (which goes under the image caption):
%% Caption selected per above crowner. Please don't change or remove without approval from the Caption thread: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1404492079030138900

I am not happy with the suggestion for Reaching Between the Lines. It has a serious overlap with Split-Screen Phone Call combined with Frame Break. There is no-one reaching through the phone. Here's my counter suggestion. Can we discuss this out in a separate thread?

I am irritated by the Gendercide suggestion. Are there men in the crowd or all of them women? This ambiguousness weakens the message, IMO.

[up][up] Sure, go ahead.

[up] All women...some aren't as feminine as others but given the overall context it seems perfectly clear to me.

It's been a week, so the remaining suggestions with a 2:3 majority of positive votes have been put up on their respective pages. Opened threads for the remainder. Also, You Won't Feel a Thing! was voted up here, but someone put on image on the page while the suggestion was on the crowner; spun that off to its own thread as well.

For Desert Tropes

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/deserts.png
Deserts from around the world (yes, even Antarctica)note 

The Antarctic can be cropped off if it's superfluous or distracting. I found it amusing.

I also noticed that the image for A Mountain of Tropes was changed without discussion. I didn't think anything of it since it's still a mountain, but should it have been brought to the attention of the community?

One-panel cartoon. Not a definite no-go, but I'm wary.

Shame if it's off-limits, though, as that's a pretty good image.

Yes, they tend to be the whole work and using them here thus not covered by fair use.

[up] If it's from an art site like DeviantArt, you send the artist a note asking permission to use the work. if it's from a professional artist or some such, you need to go through whatever their website has for contacts.
