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):

Whoops! Fixing!
Disambig Needed: Help with those issues! tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13324299140A37493800&page=24#comment-576No clue what's going on there, personally. I assume they need fabric softener but I don't see what makes them uncharacteristically stupid.
What An Idiot is about stupid characters, not concepts like stores, and the series is absurd enough that this doesn't feel inherently stupid by that book's logic to me, without context at least.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.I really don't understand what is happening that image.
Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadI'm pretty sure the image is supposed to be them reacting to something absurdly stupid.
Orcus on His Throne will always be my pet peeve.Would this a good page image for TearJerker.Gladiator?
- (CONTEXT: After Maximus arrives home in Spain and finds out that his wife and son had been murdered on Emperor Commodus' orders, he can only break in tears at the sight of their bodies.)

The crop looks awkward
The film was shot in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio, also known as Cinema-Scope.
If a picture depends on the caption to make sense/get a reaction then it's usually not considered to be a great picture.
OBJECTION!This is for My Little Pony: The Movie (2017), is it ok?

Suggestion: BlindIdiotTranslation.Anime And Manga
I'm not sure if there's better examples (mainly because of the r-word usage even if it is misspelled and a very old translation) but I feel like this also works without context.

Is it a "Blind Idiot" Translation, or just a bad one? There is a difference.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessGiven it has an entry on the page, I guess I had the last bit in mind with how certain moments look strange with or without context.
- The most infamous and memetic instance of this trope for this series would be the So Bad, It's Good "Duwang" fan translation of Diamond is Unbreakable, a Recursive Translation done by a Chinese student (using a Chinese translation of the manga) for an English class project. "Duwang" comes from the translation of the setting, more accurately translated as "Morioh". The series being already quite strange didn't help matters any, so dialogue and events that already didn't make a whole lot of sense out of context (or in context, for that matter) look like complete nonsense.
That entry doesn't really clarify it much, tbh. But that's a recurring issue with these translation tropes, so... eh.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessI guess looking over the trope page and what the manga ended up getting more properly translated as in that moment again, I'd say DIU's duwang translation does fit the bill with being "overly literal, grammatically incorrect", and "very awkward". Mainly because the first and last speech bubbles in the image don't exactly add up with newer translations. So to answer your question it's probably both?
