Real Life example for a page that has No Real Life Examples Please.
That said, it's usually better to pull such a pull through IP first.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanSeems obvious that a RL photo on an article that forbids RL examples, especially one about attractiveness, is a terrible idea. That is much worse than nothing.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Consider it mod fiat, if no other reasoning will convince you. Willbyr pulled it.
It's not coming back.
"If you aren't him, then you apparently got your brain from the same discount retailer, so..." - FighteerSure, but in that case let's use this thread to find another image. The trope page has numerous animation/comic book examples, surely we can use one of those?
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!Can we have a note in the Criteria for Valid Threads thread about real life pics on pages with No Real Life Examples Please? Also, should they be insta-pull or insta-thread-start or just avoided?
That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.Insta-thread, given .

Insta-thread. Foreign Queasine has a RL pic that passed a thread about this.
"For a successful technology, reality must take precedence over public relations, for Nature cannot be fooled." - Richard FeynmanTaking the-one-I-can't-spell-that-Septimus-linked into account, what about insta-pull only for images of people?
Edit: People are editing their posts too fast!

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.I think a picture of people clearly fawning over an older woman would work best.
I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.[Sorry, new accounts cannot post external links.]
Hmm the trope itself is just an older woman who still looks attractive right?
So...Eva◊ from MGS 4 should be enough right? It's not really JAFAC since she clearly looks fairly old in that image but (YMMV I guess) still fairly attractive. Or will we need a comparison shot of Eva then and now to show her aging gracefully? Something like this◊ but with a better layout?
Lets try a pic of Martha Vist Carbine from Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn
She doesn't really look "hot" IMO, not just because her age is showing but also because of that Uncanny Valley Makeup. We can probably do better than that.
"The Daily Show has to be right 100% of the time; FOX News only has to be right once." - Jon StewartWould it be wrong to use an image of Picard for this? Possibly with Crusher as well, so long as it's from the later movies so they're both old enough?
Good suggestions.
Caption: They both count.
Is there a larger/better quality version of that?
I didn't find it first time, but yes, it would seem so.◊
If someone has the dvd I bet they could find still more.
How about Sanae from CLANNAD?
A grandmother who doesn't look a day over 23. I guess it's sort of spoileriffic though, so it may be out on those grounds.

Prefer the second of those.
As long as the second one gets cropped I'm fine with it. The stuff above their heads just looks messy and the image could gainfully stop around the bottom of their jackets without losing anything.
You mean 17. Either way, I think she's too young to qualify for the trope, and only fits by literal interpretation.
The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.Looks good to me.
The image on Grandma, What Massive Hotness You Have! was removed without an IP discussion. It does not fit any of the instant-pull criteria for images. I don't see any problem with the image, so I suggest putting it back; failing that, it should be easy to find another image to replace it with.
