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").

Suggestion for Literary Work of Magic.

I was hesitant in applying the image just yet when I realized the trope usually applies when real-world works feature hidden purposes for existing. However, Undead Unluck is set in a world that has locations and historical background from nonfiction blended with clearly fictional aspects, so the definition got cloudy.

[up] That's the issue with a manga example. The Autumn Arc details the principles of the trope, but it doesn't all fit on one page. It's a manga written in the story called "To You, From Me" (not to be confused with Kimi ni Todoke) that is a guide to how the events of the world will play out, disguised as fiction. A video example would probably outline the whole trope in play, depending on the episode.

I think there's potential here. Although if the anime relays it faster than the manga, maybe a captioned screen-shot of the same scene in the anime would work better?

I actually think that the Zordon image is weak but not fully JAFAAC. He is bathed in blue-white light which are both usually colours associated with goodness (Blue Is Heroic Light Is Good) and the characters underneath seem to have relaxed body language and don't look threatened as he hovers over them looking powerful but not scary. Its not quite strong enough to get a vote from me but I think it's along the right line of thinking.

[up] I think it counts as an Image Macro and these aren't allowed.

Drope Since: Oct, 2012
#15898: May 21st 2024 at 3:17:09 AM

[up]In this case, I think it works because the image macro works together with the image + caption combo to enhance the trope's depiction instead of just being lazily slapped in there (which is why they are not allowed).

Screw the Rules, I'm Beautiful! does something similar.

[up]That only shows more exceptions can be added.

In 2018:

Image macros as page images are discouraged on TV Tropes, since most of them aren't really useful or funny. In fact, there's a tag on Image Pickin called NSFW/Image Macro. TLP Bump is the only exception to this rule.

Not that I want to encourage rule-breaking, but people should think more why rules are made. The Redundacy suggestion above could be viewed as useful (it reinforces the redundacy) and funny, which would make it different from most Image Macros.
