Doesn't look like a dramatic revelation at all; just looks like he's taking his glasses off nonchalantly.

[up][up] Looks way too much like a lolcats image.

[up] Well, with a Lolcats image it's a cat doing something funny that requires a caption to get the point across. With that one, you can tell what's going on even without the captions, though they add on to it.

[up][up] It is not. You can thank the Image Boards for this one.

Can we cut our the huge blocky Ariel text then? It looks way too internet meme like as it is.

I see no reason not to, but I do think it does add to the trope.

It's fine with the text. It adds to it, and it'd look a little more boring if we just replicated that text with a caption.

I have a message from another time...

This calls for a... DRAMATIC REMOVAL

I actually like the second version more. Makes it look more clean.

Use the removed lines as its caption.

I need a pothole to put in that caption. "DRAMATIC REMOVAL" just begs for a trope to be linked. Something fun. Any ideas? Possibly Large Ham?

Cropped version is def'ly better.

Cropped is much better.

Cropped is good; definitely pothole it to Large Ham.

Ok, you want to wait the standard 3 days then? Seems like everyone has settled on the cropped pic. I'm cool with loading it up whenever.

That picture is more "Something amazing/shocking is happening" and less "I'm saying something dramatic".

This is still a signature.

Ok, the new image is up, though the caption kinda cuts into the blue bar. That's not a problem though. This topic can be locked if there's nothing further.

I'd say this is settled.

Lock?
