Not sure what I am seeing there, something is leaking alright. But the evil part is weak. Can we do better?

It looks kinda washed out, which may have weakened the "evil" part. Is there a better shot, or must we find something else?

Would something like this work?

[up]There's a similar picture of Pandora at Sealed Evil in a Can. And Pandora is not an example of Leaking Can of Evil.[tdown]

Maybe the last two panels of this The Order of the Stick comic will do?

[up] I think the last panel could work on its own, provided the text is legible at wiki size.

Alternative shot of Hyrule Castle in the current, but now it's a bit weak on the "leaking," imo.

Improved version of the current. It was really washed out.

[up] I can't tell what's going on there. Here's a stab at the OOTS pic with the text panel enlarged.

[up][up][up] I can't really tell that anything's leaking from anywhere in those.

Current is bad and needs to go

10 is good.

I have no clue how 10 is an example.

Like, there's no can. Just some purple smudge. Heck, I can't even tell if it's coming from the pink lightning bolt or the angel? It's the same color as her wing.

I'm not fond of 10, even with the enlarged text it's difficult to make out what's happening, for the reasons [up] said.

[up] Agreed. I also don't like 10.

Re-clocked. Crowner, or should we just pull the current for being unclear and call this done?

[up]Somehow, I don't think that really embodies this trope.

I'm fine with just pulling the current for now.

EDIT: Okay, this thread's saturated with Zelda suggestions, but could this Ganon art work? The "managing to influence the outside world" part isn't that clear, though.

[up] If Ganon is breaking out, that is one thing. That picture doesn't really show Ganon's outside influence that well.

Which is why I wonder what part of Calamity Ganon doesn't scream evil or trying to get out. If you show a leaking can, it should show evil leaking out from a can.

[up]None of the Hyrule castle pics really look like he's sealed inside it — he looks like a malevolent cloud floating around it. Same for the Epic Mickey one actually.
