Current is literally the title card. I think a pic of the characters going, well, camping would be a good replacement, but for now, pull the current.

Yeah, that's not illustrative enough by far. A pic of them actually camping from that episode would be better, such as this or this.

I'll give the edge to 2.1.

Alternatively, Legend Of Everfree.

First panel optional. Meant to contrast with previous EGQ movies.

EDIT: Huh, I'd have thought Legend Of Everfree would be a redirect to that.

^ I like the contrasting.

[up][up] That's not bad, but is there a pic of the gathering at the bottom where I don't have to squint to make out some of the details? Even though it's a PNG, the resizing left that looking kinda grainy, and overall it's really busy for something that small.

^ Will this suffice or do we need an additional shot of the standard setting?

[up] I'm not sure there is a "standard setting" in the EQG universe, unless you count high school settings in a general sense, and even that is hard to picture in one image. Using what comes to mind, though...

[up] The first and third are pretty good. It looks like the second has a watermark of some sort on the right edge...is there a TV version of that one?

Kind of torn between 12.1 and 12.3. The latter are more recognizable, but the former look inherently more out of place because, well, they're ponies.note 

Kinda wondering if we have a "campfire ghost story" trope though.

The picture should contrast with a "normal" episode shot to get the point across.

I went with EQG because MLP:FIM has some full-fledged camping episodes, and some camping scenes in episodes that aren't exclusively about camping. (Over A Barrel, Sisterhooves Social, etc.) I wanted to make clear that the out-of-context screenshots being used weren't from the latter, and Legend Of Everfree would convey that much more effectively.

That said, if the screenshot works, the screenshot works. As for non-camping episodes, here's a couple of panel suggestions from the Bizarro Episode thread.

EDIT: Though the second panel in that is already on Superhero Episode, so we should only use it if it works better with Camping Episode than it does with that, and then immediately replace the one for Superhero Episode.

^^ I don't think that's strictly necessary. If the characters clearly look out of their element, we can still get the trope across without resorting to a much clunkier composition.

What about characters from Barbie Life in the Dreamhouse? The title's in the lower left, implying that the standard setting is a "dreamhouse".
