[up] Those are better. It really was a quality thing.

I like the second one because Sultan looks happily unaware and Jafar looks creepy.

[up] Ah, yes, lovely.

I like the balcony one a lot. Jafar looks very Obviously Evil, and he's standing behind the Sultan in a very chancellor-like pose.

Balcony is better now that we finally have a better image.

I think the 300 pixel version will look better on the page instead of the 350.

I like the bigger one, can see Jafar's face better

The balcony Jafar is excellent, and the larger one allows a better look at Jafar's face.

Should I add it to the page? Any caption suggestions?

I don't know. The first picture looks more threatening and evil. The 2nd one is just a happy sultan and an indifferent subordinate merely observing what he is saying.

It's not a subordinate's job to smile with the king, but rather to carry on business as usual. That's what the 2nd picture is implying to me.

[up] Their facial expressions do seem to demonstrate Jafar's resentment at being subserviant to the sultan, though.  *

Still, he usually always has that frowning-look on his face just even when he's not showing any emotion. I've seen that same look on many a butler throughout various forms of media.

Jafar is a good choice and there are good pics out there, but I just thought of another possible option:

What about the French Bande Dessinée Iznogoud, with the titular Vizir and the Calife? Here are three pics I found with a quick Google Search:

[1], [2], [3]

Yeah, though I love Star Wars, I agree that Palpatine is NOT a good example. He was only plotting a take-over when he was a senator, and he wasn't Obviously Evil in Episode I. Once Palpatine was Chancellor of the Republic, he was in charge.

If the rank is what would qualify him as "evil chancellor", then you could just as well choose the Chancellor of the Third Reich. So no, Palpatine isn't a good example.

[up] I also thought nearly immediately of Iznogoud. Especially because Jafar has that "I want to be Sultan in stead of the sultan" look. But I guess it needs an image where he looks more obviously plotting.

ETA: Here's a nice one of Iznogoud plotting.

I decided to resize and upload Tyoria's Jafar pics, because when you have to click on a separate link per pic, that isn't exactly all that convenient for comparing options. My means of resizing involved setting IE to half-zoom, taking screenshots, and cropping, and I'm not sure if that's the best way to resize them as far as quality goes, but as far as means I'm aware of go, it does seem to work better than my other method, which is resizing them in MS Paint. Anyway, here are the images.

Okay confession: I wasn't sure about uploading a ton of pics to the TV Tropes server. Do they get cleaned out at some point if they're not being serviced on a page? If one was singled out, I was gonna crop it and resize. Like, that last one, I figured we'd be snapping Al out of the shot.

And here's Collex's.

In the future I'll just do all that ahead of time, provided it's all right.

They eventually get cleaned out; you get a cache of 400 so I wouldn't worry too much. I like that one with Jasmine between them.
