Changed w/o discussion: Downloadable Content

The thing is, though, the Penny Arcade image doesn't illustrate DLC at all, and someone who doesn't know what DLC is wouldn't get the joke. Motion for no pic.

I don't think it harms the page in any way, and it can help a little bit to understand the trope. That horse is a little bit out of place, which suggests it's not there naturally. It's not much, but it's something.

I'm also naturally skeptic to anyone who claims people won't understand something if they're not familiar with it while the claimer is in the know themselves, since I've heard that so many times about things I don't know about, but they make perfect sense to me.

No, I'm pretty sure it does. It's a bit too tell-y vs. show-y, but it's Keep Until Better Image Suggested-level.

Basically, what Duck was saying.

Nothing indicates that it was purchased, nor is there any indication that it was downloaded digitally. It's Tell, Don't Show at best. Also, it does not feel out of place, as it's the only thing in the image. Now, if there were several, actual horses next to it, then it would feel out of place.

How many works can you name where gunhorses are perfectly normal?

Check out my fanfiction!

Not gunhorses specifically, but plenty of works have similar animal mechas. If the image didn't have the speech balloon, or if the speech balloon was the caption rather than in the image proper, it would have been brought to Image Pickin' much sooner; it's the dictionary definition of Just a Face and a Caption.

Crowner's hooked.

Mechanical animals generally do not look like animals literally made out of guns, so that's kind of a weak defense.

And JAFAAC? Well, sure, if the dialog wasn't there. Except, the dialog is there, so the image illustrates that it's DLC on its own - even if it's telling instead of showing. Still better than nothing and not actively harming the page.

It says right on the Just a Face and a Caption page under True JAFAAC: "A caption may be inside the image or even disguised as something else, like a Speech Balloon".

The horse's design in contrast to the rest of the picture illustrates how it's not natural to the setting, with Gabe's text clarifying what it is. It's weak, yes, but it's not a bad or harmful image like the Mona Lisa one and it's not JAFAAC.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

Whether the horse doesn't look anything else like the rest of the setting is irrelevant. The important part of a DLC image is that it illustrates that the content is purchased separately from the rest of the game.

Personally, I'm ambivalent. The image really doesn't illustrate anything, but I don't know if I'd consider it harmful either. That said, the crowner seems to be in favor of not having an image at the moment.

That difference does show that "separately from the rest of the game" aspect. That's why it's relevant. It doesn't show exactly why or how, but that's why it's not a strong image. Claiming it doesn't illustrate anything is looking for how it doesn't, rather than how it does.

The PlayStation store◊

Suggested caption: "Showing 4 out of 1230 available downloads."

Might as well toss it in, even though the crowner has been up for a long time.

This one is pretty much ready to call, but I question whether we need all four panels of the leader...I think the top two would suffice.

I think the top two will suffice.

(Annoyed grunt)

Yeah, top two.

Check out my fanfiction!

Top two with no caption.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?

Sounds good. The images are swapped and will be tagged shortly. Caption?

The caption that was originally suggested to go with it was "Showing 4 out of 1230 available downloads."

Oh yeah...it's not bad but I wouldn't mind some other options.

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
