"Holmes=Great Detective" is definitely one of those things you'd get a weird look for not knowing. Go for it.

It's a shame part of the magnifying glass is cropped out.

It's still awesome. Joining in the positives.

I vote for the second one, for to the uncropped magnifying glass.

This implies, quite correctly, that my mind is dark and damp and full of tiny translucent fish.

I like the first better regardless of the magnifying glass.

I prefer the second image. The article is not very big, so a smaller image would fit better in it.

Check the pixel dimensions again. Image #2 is larger.

Yeah, I like image 2 more over 1 but both images work

Can't get much better than that one.

I like either of them. So which ever one everyone is good with, I'll be all for! He's our trope codifier after all :D

How the hell can anyone be OK with any of the two pictures? It's totally JAFAAC! I have no idea who this guy is. This is Fan Myopia at its best!

^And that lack of knowledge of who Sherlock Holmes is would be considered very unusual in meatspace.

[up][up] Magnifying glass, trenchcoat, and Sherlock Holmes-style pipe are classic visual cues for this trope.

Wait... Head Desk, did you ever go to school?... Also it's not like he isn't doing detective work in the pics.
