Personally, I think that there should be a pic of the source material to show that it has been given, well, an animated adaptation.

I see the argument, and I won't object strenuously to adding a pic from TOS, but I think TOS is one of those shows that is so ubiquitous to popular culture that the current speaks for itself.

I'm gonna agree with Willbyr on that. There are very few works you can assume everyone is familiar with, but that's most likely one of them.

Or in other words, I'd like to see an actual suggestion that's better than the current before I see a reason to change it.

What harm is there in having a screenshot from the live-action version right above the animated one?

Yeah, if anything, it'll serve to enrich the current. I had no idea what Star Trek TOS was until two years ago, probably.

^^^ I think their whole point was "There isn't. But let's see someone come up with something concrete first".

That said, I think 6.1 is used on the work page. Guess I'll go with 6.2, but I'll throw in a somewhat higher quality version.

An edit with 7 on top and current image on bottom would be nice [tup]

So my issue is that I hatehatehate when images are longer than the trope description. It's just an aesthetic mess. And the description isn't horribly long here... I'm worried that a second image would just make the page look ugly.

And I just realized even the animated series recognized Chapel.

Anyway the hi-res image works yeah. Should be shopped above the animated image, making it a single comparison image.

Figured we could do an upgrade for the animated pic as well, but no luck finding a good one so far.

Good enough; 12's up and tagged. Use the old caption?

Old caption's still good.

I feel like the fact that Chekov is missing from the animated series needs to be pointed out in the caption.

b[up][up] The budget wouldn't allow it; that's why M'Ress and Arex were there. Bit clunky to try to include, IMO.
