Poor Image: Poison Is Corrosive

Well, the image does technically illustrate the trope, but I had to stare at it for five minutes and read source's entry to figure out that the axe is supposed to be melting. I'm hoping we can find an image that's a bit more clear in what it's trying to show.

I'm certainly biased because I'm the one who added the picture to at-the-time imageless page, but I think it does an adequate job illustrating the trope. So, you'd need to propose a quality replacement before considering changing the image.

(I wouldn't be against tweaking the text a bit so that it'd be more readable, if that's the main issue. I took a screenshot from a PDF file, that was the best I could get to Wiki size.)

The simpler image from Hollywood Acid could also work here and we could look for a substitute there like this one from Alien.

[up]Neither suggest that poison is corrosive, just that acid is corrosive.

Keep Until Better Image Suggested. 6.1 doesn't show any corrosive poison, just the corrosiveness.

I got the current in less than a second. It's perfectly illustrative. It's weak on the poison aspect, since it's only what he says, but unlike the others it's at least there.
