Brains and Brawn recently had an image added that makes it look like it's about one person having brains and brawn when the page makes it clear it is about two people. Something like this [1] would be better.

Yeah, that doesn't fit the trope at all. Not really keen on the suggestion but it's better than nothing.

Guess who uploaded the pic...

Anyways, [1] and [2], though the brains part proves tricky to display.

[up]A fox and a bear does provide good imagery thanks to the animals' portrayals.

OP's suggestion isn't bad, but I don't really like the ad look of it.

[up]Would it look less like an ad if we crop out the text?

7 works barring anything else.

[up] I get the brawn part, all right. Not sure about the brains.

I concur. It's a problem I've seen with many possible pics for this trope when I did a search. Most only show one half of it or, especially with superheroes, they both look like brawn. Occasionally it also looks more like Big Guy, Little Guy.

I like 3.1. The fox looks crafty.

I missed those completely somehow. Yeah, 3.1 looks pretty good.
