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

[up] I'll come up with some options for the Foreign-Language Tirade one later today.

Edit: Okay, here are three options: [1], [2], [3]

Also, here's a suggestion for for Bride and Switch.

1151.3 is funnier because of the context before the punchline. It also shows that there's an argument going on, whereas 1151.1 just looks like someone yelling the words "angry Spanish." If there's a way to make Sombra's dialogue in the second panel also red (keeping the color consistent with the speaker), I think that'd be a further improvement.

1151.3 is funnier than .2. .1 does nothing for me without context.

Alright, I've put up that version on the page. Any thoughts on the possible crops for Super Supremacist posted on the previous page?

And since it's been a week, I've put up the remaining suggestions that have been voted up and started threads for the ones that haven't been. Only Rat King is still waiting for permission.

And here's a new crowner. That should take us to the rest of post 1133 on page 46, so we're nearly caught up to this point.

I would think the Literal Maneater picture should have the monster trying to at least eat a man.

The new crowner's hooked; I'll update the thread title shortly.

  1. I strongly oppose to the image suggestion for You Said You Would Let Them Go. The trope is explicitly for this response. What the suggestion shows is I Lied and may lead to misuse.
  2. There are probably better examples of Eye Scream like in the center of [1]

^ 1: You're somehow assuming that they have to be mutually exclusive; they're assuredly not, given that the page itself states that it's a standard response to this trope's "lol, no I wasn't gonna let your loved ones live". The suggestion shows both You Said You Would Let Them Go and I Lied. To compare, the picture that's on I Lied right now only shows that trope (and Deal with the Devil).

You Said You Would Let Them Go is about the hero's response to a villain not keeping his promise. The image is not showing that aspect.

Your picture for Eye Scream is a fundamental part of the picture for Lodged-Blade Recycling, where it is much better used.

[up] Agreed; also, I specifically went with that SA strip for the humor value.

Either the last panel or the last four panels from this strip for Leave No Survivors.

It's been three days, so all suggestions with a net positive of 10 or more votes have been put up on their respective pages.

Started a thread for Literal Maneater.

[up][up][up]I don't think the Shameful Strip is sufficiently clear without context, since she's still almost fully dressed and there's no indication that she's being stripped.

I heard that Miley Cyrus is having a new single this month, and I noticed that her hair is slowly turning back to brunette. So, I would suggest this:

[up] Is that for the creator page? It is a nicer picture, imo (better lighting for one thing).

Replacement suggestions should get their own threads, though. It's way too easy to assume anything in this thread is for an imageless page and vote accordingly.

That's not just an assumption someone might make, it is explicit. The very first line of the first post, which shows up on every page, is "This thread is dedicated for image suggestions for pages without pics."
