Image Suggestion Thread (New Crowner: November 04 2025):

Go To

This thread is dedicated to image suggestions for pages without pics (including those where previous images were pulled by Image Pickin').

Guidelines

  1. Please read How to Pick a Good Image and Just a Face and a Caption before suggesting an image. Additionally, make sure to source the image in your post.
  2. If you have multiple suggestions you'd like to field for a single page, that can merit its own thread. Otherwise, use this thread.
  3. It is recommended that you upload your suggestions as you would like them to be formatted on the page.
  4. A crowner will be generated by a moderator. with suggestions which will be voted on as normal. Crowners will run for up to 7 days.
    • Each crowner will generally contain 12-15 items, but may have up to 20 if there's a backlog of suggestions. Please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
    • After 3 days, anything with votes at +10 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 can be added to the page.
    • After 5 days, anything with votes at +7 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 can be added to the page.
    • After 7 days, all remaining crowner items with a positive ratio of at least 2:1 will be added, all items below the 2:1 ratio will be rejected, and the crowner will be closed.
  5. Suggestions will generally be processed and added to crowners in the order they come into the thread.

Crowners on this thread do not count towards the Image Pickin' Special Cases Multiple Threads rule (which applies to "pages that have had three or more IP threads").

Templates

  • Selected images will be tagged using this template (which goes above the image):
%% Image selected via crowner in the Image Suggestion thread: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1452266899092104700
%% crowner link
%% Please do not change or remove without starting a new thread.
  • If one or more previous images on the page were pulled, those forum links should remain on the page as well, but the accompanying templates should be replaced by:
%% Previous image removed per Image Pickin' thread:
  • Captions selected by crowner will be tagged using this template (which goes under the image caption):
%% Caption selected per above crowner. Please don't change or remove without approval from the Caption thread: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1404492079030138900

There is a sandbox for backlog suggestions awaiting a crowner slot: Image Pickin' Backlog

The remaining suggestions that were voted up with at least 7 total votes and a 2:1 ratio have been added to their respective pages.

[up] Thanks. [tup] Threads have been opened for the failed options.

As we're current sitting at 100+ threads, I'm going to hold off on creating a new crowner for a while so we can get some of this backlog cleared out.

A few month ago, I suggested Bill Cipher's death as a pic for Shapeshifter Swan Song. Here's a pic:

[up][up] That idea for a Shapeshifter Swan Song image got voted down in the crowner, and nothing happened with the follow up thread It's unclear that it will do any better this time.

#438: Jun 16th 2016 at 5:30:54 PM

[up]Well I was under the impression it got ignored because no one had bothered doing an actual pic, so I did. I really feel like the idea is good enough to give it a second chance.

I was under the impression that it was okay if it was the actual dialogue from the scene being depicted. Though if I'm wrong on that count I apologize, and withdraw the suggestion.

Can somebody please explain to me the rules for adding images, or give me a link to where I can find them. I am confused about how this works.

I just created a new Eldritch Abomination page for RuneScape which you can find here. I think this would be an excellent image for it.

[up][up] You'll want to read About Images and Copyright, How to Pick a Good Image, and the material at the very top of this thread. JAFAAC is worth a read as well.

Thank you, I read all four of those things. So what happens next? Is there anything wrong with the image that I missed?

I noticed that the rules say that using Image Pickin' is only recommended, not required. If there is nothing wrong with the image then can I just add it to the page without going through this process?

Since it's a trope page, it's best to do a thread for it. Since it's here in this thread, it'll eventually be run through a crowner to vote on whether or not it will go on the page.

Split off options from post #428 to reshuffle the order in favor of other suggestions.

If this image gets chosen for Eldritch Abomination / Runescape then I think this should be the caption:

"I went down into the dark. I disturbed something. Something ancient. Something horrible! It followed me up to the house. A horror from lost aeons! Do not tread there, lest you stir up another monstrosity. Do not go down into the basement!"

or if that is too long then remove a few of the sentences.

Crown Description:

This crowner covers posts from here to here (inclusive) and may run for up to 7 days, depending on voting. Vote UP to add an image to the page; vote DOWN to reject the suggestion.
  • After 3 days, anything with +10 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be added to the page.
  • After 5 days, anything with +7 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be added to the page.
  • After 7 days, any remaining items with a positive ratio of at least 2:1 will be added, all items below the 2:1 ratio will be rejected, and the crowner will be closed.
If an item has a (CLOSED) note, there is no need to vote on it; the result has already been decided. Do not add more items to the crowner once it's running.
