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):

Evil All Along should definitely get its own thread. Here.
^ A few things:
A good example does not necessarily make for a good image.
When tropes are closely related, that's an argument against using overlapping images if we can help it.
It's been a week, so the remaining suggestions have been added to their pages.
Started threads for the deadlocked ones, including a few that had less than 7 votes total.
Here's the next crowner. With 20 suggestions that takes us up the rest of post 1713 on the previous page.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"Thanks, the new crowner's hooked.
Here's the definition of Male Might, Female Finesse.
In fiction, male-female fighting pairs tend to have the guys dealing damage from close range while the girls stay out of the front lines and dish out damage from long range either as an archer or a mage (or both) or heal up the guy doing all the fighting.
"Olivier Mira Armstrong" using a sword (close-range weapon) is Not An Example.
Magic Ampersand: Suggestion◊ from Advanced Dungeons & Dragons
"I go through laptops like a transvestite goes through nylons" — CryptonomiconAs for the I Noun suggestion, when it can be easily avoided it's best not to use images for trope pages that come across as belonging on a work's page. Here's an alternative suggestion:
Salimmalik added what looks like spam in the crowner, btw.
Look at all that shiny stuff ain't they prettyGood catch; that’s taken care of and he’s been shown the door.
Alternative for Male Might, Female Finesse, in light of the points I raised just a few posts up...
EDIT: Also, for Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption...

What are those, robots? How can one know who is male and who is female?

Popcultural Osmosis, mainly. Though I doubt they'd portray a male as being more sleek than a dirt-covered female counterpart.
The relevant point is that it at least... probably counts as example, while the Olivier one seems like it doesn't.

I don't even know what work that's from. And the image would need to unambiguously show masculinity and femininity.

Suggestion for Gravity Is Purple (One Piece):

Original the Signature. Do not steal.Very well, then. I just proposed it as an alternative to the other suggestion.
Anyway, here's two versions of a suggestion for You, Get Me Coffee...
that’s just speech bubbles.
OH MY GOD; MY PARENTS ARE GARDENIIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!Suggestion for Artificial Afterlife from Doctor Who:

OH MY GOD; MY PARENTS ARE GARDENIIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!Opinions: Would the image currently on Scooby Stack look better flipped◊? (preview◊)
Trouble Cube continues to be a general-purpose forum for those who desire such a thing.flipped looks good, but I don't mind either way
OH MY GOD; MY PARENTS ARE GARDENIIIIINNNNGGGGG!!!!!I like the flip.
I retract my suggestion for Frictionless Ice, in light of how, if it were frictionless, he shouldn't have been able to push that block forwards without pushing himself backwards.
In hindsight, it'd be better off without an image.
Flip.
Check out my fanfiction!Flip Scooby Stack
Health sure is versatile. It's possible to be both light-headed and dim-witted. At the same time, no less.Some more suggestions:
- Just Desserts: Suggestion◊ from Rio.
- Viva Las Vegas!: Suggestion◊ from Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
- Afool For A Client: Suggestion◊ from print media.
- Post-Peak Oil: Suggestion◊ from internet.
It's been five days, so all suggestions with a positive of 7 or more have been added.
Also started threads for I, Noun and Male Might, Female Finesse given the counter-suggestions offered further up.

Crown Description:
Aye, that is what I feared. I will go for the Hans doing good deeds and Hans about to kill Elsa if nothing else. Some people may say it's Villain with Good Publicity, but the thing is that Villain with Good Publicity and Evil All Along are interconnected along with Bitch in Sheep's Clothing. Image-wise, Hans is fairly unique in that he doesn't come across as an Obviously Evil person unlike Palpatine or Lex Luthor in the first image. Thus, he fits well with Evil All Along because the audience would not suspect it unless they are overly paranoid.
