This image did not get enough consensus in the Image Suggestion thread. Other ideas?

Opened...I didn't think it was all that bad.

Me neither. Not stellar, but good enough.

I was ambivalent on it, but it's better than nothing.

Maybe the Weasley fireworks for Order of the Phoenix?

I prefer 6 over 4.

4 looks like fireworks more than 6, so my vote goes there.

Spiral out, keep going.

4 looks more like a computer-generated typeface or something. There's no way to make those serifs with fireworks alone.

I'm voting for 6.

Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they pretty

[up]That's kinda the point of the trope, no?

P.S. I'll elaborate: in 4 you can actually see the bright sparkles of fire that the fireworks consinst of. 6 looks like someone smudged the sky with paint. And the trope is all about the form the fireworks take.

[up][up]Yeah, that's a good argument. Voting for 4.

Improved versions of 4 and 6.

[up]Hm, I find 14.3 underwhelming compared to the other two...now that the quality upgrade makes the letters more obvious, 14.2 wins for me. More letters, more fantastic, I guess.

Votes bump; everything's in the green.

14.1 is 11 points in the green, 7 in the lead. It's been 4 days since the last post in this thread. Time to call it?

Yep, good enough to call in favor of 14.1.

Caption ideas?

Something about the Weasleys going out with a bang would be on point but kinda stale.

[up] Also, not all of the Weasely family dropped out.

How feasible is a firework that looks like that in real life? I figure commentary on that might make for a good caption.

No consensus on a caption; locking up.
