This thread is dedicated to image suggestions for pages without pics (including those pulled by Image Pickin'). Guidelines:
- 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.
- If you have multiple suggestions you'd like to field for a single page, that can merit its own thread. Otherwise, use this thread.
- It is recommended that you upload your suggestions as you would like them to be formatted on the page.
- A crowner will be generated with suggestions which will be voted on as normal:
- The crowners will generally run 12-15 items at any given time and may go as high as 20 if there's a backlog of suggestions, so please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
- After 3 days, any options with a net vote count of ≥10 can be put on their respective pages. After 5 days, this can apply to options with a net vote count of ≥7. Anything below that will need to go the full 7 days.
- After 7 days, generally the unprocessed options that have a positive vote count (2:1) can go up on their respective pages. Old thread rule, no longer enforced
- Suggestions will generally be processed and added to crowners in the order they come into the thread.
- Selected images will be tagged using this template (which goes above the image):
%% crowner link
%% Please do not change or remove without starting a new thread.
- Captions selected by crowner will be tagged using this template (which goes under the image caption):

I'll make that its own thread.
EDIT: Done. Now, we just need to decide what to do with the Hostage Video suggestion.
EDIT #2: I've put up the Precious Photo suggestion.

Double-posting.
I've hooked a new crowner with 10 more threads, along with an extra suggestion for Bloody Horror that I found. Let's see how this one works out.
The elevator scene from The Shining fits better on Rivers of Blood.
...which already has a pic from The Simpsons depicting a similar scene. I'd rather have the Shining pic there, myself.
In fact, I think that's from a Shining parody episode.

Oh, I don't know. Gory is the point of such a trope.
What is the trope and how does the elevator scene illustrate it?
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.Did this get overlooked?
CM Dates; CM Pending; CM DraftsLooks like it did.
(Annoyed grunt)World War III previously had its image pulled for duplication with Nuke 'em. A few options were mentioned in that thread that seem to focus primarily on the nuclear exchange side of it. I'd like to suggest this promo◊ from World in Conflict: Soviet Assault.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"I added it to the crowner.
I keep forgetting about this thread because I'm so used to the previous system. Just dropped a bunch of votes to move things along.
If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?I'll post this list of suggestions here in case this becomes a regular thing. If not, I'll gradually move them to their own threads when this crowner wraps up.
- For Hauled Before A Senate Subcommittee: From◊ Skyfall. Suggested caption: "The British Defense Ministry works too."
- For Invisible Streaker: From◊ Cyberforce. Hope it's work-safe enough.

Why so serious?^^ When will this crowner wrap up?
Maybe using the model of the NRLEP crowner of a continuing vote, where items that have accomplished consensus are implemented without closing the whole crowner, is a better way to go.

You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"That's what was done with the previous crowner, and will be done soon. I'm going to be taking action on some of these later this evening, gonna be tied up this afternoon.

Done the first five. Hope that's all right.
(Annoyed grunt)They have clear consensus, so no objections here.
she/her | TRS needs your help! | Contributor of Trope ReportSuggestion for D-Cup Distress from Love Hina [1]◊
I've done the rest in the green except for Hostile Terraforming; that one needs more votes or a couple more days with a steady ratio to call. I'll open the thread for the Agame ga Kill! example shortly.
Gotta say, I'm pleased with this crowner; it worked a lot better than the previous one.
EDIT: I see that the Borg pic took a hit in the votes. I was thinking that the dialogue from that scene (" The atmosphere contains high concentrations of methane, carbon monoxide, and fluorine. [...] Population approximately nine billion... all Borg.") could work as the caption but that's a little long now that I look at it.

Crown Description:
^ Seconding this motion.
As for Top God, I'd suggest to move the current on Greek Mythology to that page. There seem to be plenty of good alternatives for the latter, but none that focus as much on the 'king god' as that one.
