Image Suggestion Thread (New Crowner: October 28 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):

%% 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][up] & [up][up][up] what lordlucanord 876 has suggested isn't an Image Macro. It's subtitles, those are fine. Now I think it's too "Tell Not Show" for my tastes but it's not an IM.

[up][up] Love it n.n [up]Hi!, sorry but what's the difference between those two?, as you mention I did tried to implement the original dialogue through subtitles but the image macro seems like adding a text to a normal image so I'm not entirely sure if it still counts as macro or not

[up] An Image Macro is when someone adds some text that's not relevant to the scene at hand to an image. Adding the dialogue to stills from a scene like on Fool's Map, Expository Theme Tune, Lyrical Dissonance or Parent Produced Project are fine. But some people seem to confuse any image with text added is an Image Macro which isn't the case.

The image still looks very amateur with the subtitles

[up] Agreed the way they have been applied doesn't look very visually appealing which is another reason I would vote it down. I just want to be specific with the term Image Macro which in this case I think was being misused.

The point is that the image should factually be from a work. If an image is heavily edited, then it doesn't work out.

The text could work for the quotes page, since it doesn't require the images at all.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

[up][up]Oh I see, I'll take it into account when looking for a new image. Thank you so much for the advice n.n [up]True, then I will post the text there, thank you very much for the suggestion n.n

Speaking of which I found another image I want to propose for the trope Elopement, this time from Corpse Bride. This time the subtitles were already on the video which I took the capture (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4J2sUq4TLM), I just enhanced the images. Hope this one works better than the previous one I proposed.

Pinned post updated.

Some formatting tweaks, but the only practical change is that we've called out the need for a 2:1 ratio (as well as the +10 or +7 vote threshold) for anything that's called early.

This is the same change we recently made to the Moments thread, and is in line with the wiki's overall crowner policy - i.e. consensus needs a 2:1 minimum.

In practice, it's not likely to be relevant often, as anything that hits those totals tends to be almost unanimous, but it does close a loophole and keeps things consistent.

[up][up]I think the point is supposed to be the mismatched time periods between the poster and Lisa. The poster's been up since the age of piracy, implying that the case has been open for that long as well.

I mean, it looked to me like she was hanging said poster up; given that it's The Simpsons, I wouldn't put it past there just being a pirate in Springfield.

Honestly I think with the mise-en-scene—some old-looking guy with a raccoon cap, faded yellowed paper, and old-timey Wanted For Treason—it does kind of signify that the case is extremely old.

  • After 5 days, anything with +7 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be added to the page.
  • After 7 days, any remaining 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.
