This thread is dedicated to image suggestions for pages without pics (including those where previous images were 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 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.
- 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):

I seem to have committed a faux pas. I was under the impression that if a trope had no page image at all, it was okay to add one and that if another troper wanted to contest it, they would then bring the discussion here. From reading the thread description though, it seems pretty clear I was supposed to bring the image here first.
Faux Action Girl had no page image, so I added this from Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal:
It's a little wordy, but I feel like it embodies the trope quite well — the woman has credentials and maybe wins one fight to "prove" to the audience that she's a badass, then becomes incapable of doing jack for the rest of the work, even in situations where her alleged skills would be incredibly useful.
Do others find this image acceptable? Should I remove it since it didn't actually receive approval here first, or is it okay to leave it up for the moment?
It's basically Talking Heads, but it's doable in lieu of another suggestion.
On one condition: is this less than half of the original comic? If not, it needs replacement due to fair use issues.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.Our issue with that image is that the text is doing all the work.

It's about half or less of the original, yes:

That's a good point. I don't know of another possibility though, particularly one with more pointed visuals. Should I go ahead and remove it from the page at present?
It's already on the page and you didn't violate any rules upon adding it, so you'd need a new IP thread to remove it, I assume.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.If there's not a note on the page about IP, it's technically allowed, but it's highly recommended you come here first.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.I will definitely do that in future! I had seen page notes before about not changing the image after it was decided upon in discussion, which is why I assumed it was okay to add a new one in pages where there was no note.
I guess if anyone wants to challenge it, they can just start a new thread and it can be removed if people decide it's not a good one.
Suggestion for The Magic Goes Away:
Cleave the stone, stop the magic.
It's also a huge spoiler, yes.

Double post: Since it's been 7 days, every remaining suggestion in consensus range has been uploaded, meaning that the current crowner can now be closed. Here's Crowner 146
.
Notes:
- A Weighty Aesop and Temporary Bulk Change: Multiple suggestions; thread to be started.
- Mistaken for Romance: Multiple suggestions; thread to be started.
- Faux Action Girl: Suggestion already added to page.
- The Magic Goes Away: Since everybody agreed that the suggestion was completely JAFAAC (and also that it was a huge spoiler), I'm not adding it to the crowner.
Thanks.

The suggestion for First Gray Hair appeared twice in the crowner. Luckily, one of them had no votes so I edited it out.
