This thread is dedicated to image suggestions for pages without pics (including those pulled by Image Pickin'). Guidelines:
- 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.
- If you have multiple suggestions you'd like to field for a single page, that can merit its own thread. Otherwise, use this thread.
- It is recommended that you upload your suggestions as you would like them to be formatted on the page.
- 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
- 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):
%% crowner link
%% Please do not change or remove without starting a new thread.
- Captions selected by crowner will be tagged using this template (which goes under the image caption):

I have a suggestion for an image to put on Black Comedy Animal Cruelty

Catch me where? See my profile!
Time for another crowner?
I'll go ahead and make one. Been a lot of proposals lately.
Some thoughts on the proposals here
:
- Hollywood Genetics creates unnecessary confusion with Superpowerful Genetics.
- "Everyone Comes Back" Fantasy Party Ending is more Ghost Reunion Ending.
- Sorting Algorithm of Deadness is rather difficult to really depict. I think it shows Reports of My Death Were Greatly Exaggerated instead.
- Heroic Seductress: We also have Jasmine+Jafar on Kiss of Distraction.
- Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: Honestly, I think it's too convoluted.

Here's a crowner with all options up to here.
I set aside the big list that NeoYTPism posted on the previous page for now, since a] it's sizable enough that it could probably field its own crowner, and b] half or more of the options were criticized for being duplicates, too subtle, or really showing another trope.
LMK if I missed anything else.

How sweet it is
Crowners switched. ![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
I wonder if the suggestion for If Only You Knew would fit Joke and Receive better.
Perhaps I am a bit slow today but I don't get the ideas behind the suggestions for Poor Communication Kills, Double Subversion and Improbable Use of a Weapon. Any help?
@1629. Agreeing on all account. Also, any image for Sorting Algorithm of Deadness would probably mess with the table structure. It's an index page and not really in need of an illustration.

Improbable Use of a Weapon shows a character using a cutlass to play a submachine gun like a violin, instead of swinging the sword or firing the gun.
Double Subversion suggestion first shows us the reader a scene which plays like a typical 'meeting a stranger in a dark alleyway' scenario. However, the scene is subverted as it's revealed that the thug was there to play Pokemon Go. Then the whole thing is subverted again as it turns out that despite both of them being out just to play Pokemon Go, the thug still assaults the protagonist and takes his wallet.
Poor Communication Kills shows us a person desperately attempting to gather people to help him put out the fire at the zoo, but since he does it by spouting the most cliched hippie sentiments about saving the pandas instead of mentioning the fire, no bystander comes to his aid.
In other news, apparently on all my years on the site I have misread Poor Communication Kills as Poor Communication Skills.

I didn't understand the poor communication suggestion, either. I thought those two guys were insulting each other and the guy in the middle was trying to reconcile them.
^^ Thanks for explaining. The image for Double Subversion only works if I knew about Pokemon Go which I don't.
I doubt the average TV Tropes reader will expect "squirtle" to be a euphemism for illicit goods. Especially given Leo's facial expression.

- Suggestion◊ for Born in the Saddle, A Song of Ice and Fire.

- Suggestion◊ for Finish Dialogue in Unison, Mountain Time

Some new suggestions:
- Virgin in a White Dress: Suggestion◊ from internet.
- Bastard Understudy: Suggestion◊ from Star Wars.
- Age-Gap Romance: Suggestion◊ from Flashdance.
- Superman Substitute: Suggestion◊ from Irredeemable.
I'm helping!
Unless I'm missing context, the Virgin in a White Dress suggestion just looks like some girls in white dresses.
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.
Yes, I'll contest that. Virginity by itself is not really picturable, but there are a lot of visual cues that point to notions like purity or innocence. Compare what's on Virgin Power right now. Everything about the white picket fence scenery, their youthfulness, idly laying in the grass, those are all elements that make it more than just some random girls in white dresses.
TLDR: It's Not Actually JAFAAC.

It's been a week, so this crowner is finished.

Three suggestions for Cessation of Existence:
- Shrek◊ from Shrek Forever After
- Marty's brother and sister◊ from Back To The Future
- Biff◊ from a deleted scene in Back to the Future Part II
Three suggestions can merit their own thread.
Suggestion for Author Tract:
For And This Is for... from The Wicked + The Divine.

The text is kinda small with that 3-panel layout. One panel should suffice to get the point across and improve readability.
