Here's the place to inquire about pages whose images aren't potholed to anything.
Google Image Search, Tineye
, and SauceNAO are good resources.
Images Without a Source lists the pages that have been discussed in this thread but haven't been sourced yet. Once a source is found for an image, please add it to the appropriate Image Source pagenote and remove it from Images Without a Source.
About Images and Copyright covers our general policies about image use; see here for more details and Image Pickin' forum policies. It's always a good idea to link images to their original versions and (when available) providing a link to the artist's site when they are located, especially if we're given permission to use an image.note
- Area 51 — mainly text, easy enough to do an alternate version.
- Blood Oath — clipart with text over a generic scroll.
- Broken Heel — clipart shoe.
- Editorial Synaesthesia — generic warning sign.
- Minsky Pickup — specific musical notation.
- Political Correctness Gone Mad — clipart wreath with text.
- Sequence Breaking — clipart maze.
- Themed Cursor — the image and the cursors are all awful, could be replaced with a screenshot.
- Villainous Demotivator — clipart skull plus text.
Edit: Black Box, Blown Across the Room, Double Jump, The End, Friday Night Death Slot, Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics, Horny Vikings, Rump Roast, Stock Femur Bone, Surprise Slide Staircase, Treasure Map, and Visible Silence have been replaced.

Hi
Makes sense to me.
Hi! :3
Already done, thanks.
I'd like to apologize for all this.
What is the source for Femme Fatale? I've tried reverse-imaging, but don't get a precise source.
If all else fails, use fire.
Hi! :3
According to Image Source, it's from Vanity Fair (The Interrogation by Annie Leibovitz)
Sorta a movie:
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt3492560/mediaviewer/rm320232704/?ref_=ext_shr_lnk
The Undercover Troper
Dudley Do-Right Stops to Help seems to either be stock or a screenshot.
Orcus on His Throne will always be my pet peeve.
Apparently it's a screenshot from the video linked in this Daily Mail article: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-2004270/Video-runner-turns-finish-line-help-injured-competitor.html
For Copyright it might be better to try and find something from a work if we can.

Is the Spider-Man: Goblins image fanart?
![[up]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_up.png "[up]"){kind=icon}
Looks like it: https://www.deviantart.com/olybear/art/Nine-Goblins-334445891 can't find any other pages for the artist and he hasn't posted on Deviantart since 2019, the image itself is from 2012.

Will open a thread then.
What's the source of Mechanical Evolution? The image is just lined to Parody of Evolution.

The universe is under no obligation to make sense to us.
I had a look on sauce nao and tin eye and couldn't find anything. In fact I think the oldest source Tin Eye had was TV Tropes which is never a good sign. Might be worth pulling and seeing if we can find something similar? If we start a thread Futurama handily has something similar which could work: https://theinfosphere.org/Museum_of_Natural_Robo-History#Ascent_of_Bot

What's the specific source for Ghost Reunion Ending? The image just potholes to Star Wars, and the image source page just says it's related to fanart. Is there a specific comic it's cropped from, or is it a whole piece?

TRS Wick Cleaning

Can't find it
TroperWall / WikiMagic Cleanup

It's (almost) always linked at the Discussion tab.

~Tropers/Morgenthaler I know it's been a while but you added the page image to Ghost Reunion Ending while it was in the TLP(TLP history). Do you remember where you got it from?

Macron's notes
Canadian Ex-Pirate
The image for Tears of Joy is linked to One Piece, which is technically correct as it is the property the art used for the image is based on, however the image itself is a now-deleted fan art by an "n" on Pixiv according to SauceNAO.com. Should attempts be made to get permission from the artist?
Edited by ryan77999 on Oct 5th 2023 at 11:56:00 AM
Hm, there pixiv says "DO NOT REPOST all my artworks. Not permitted." also I can't see anything posted there at the moment so I don't know if they've deactivated their account?
The image for Determinator picture without "never give up" http://danatoma.sblog.cz/2007/12/03/ Feb 5, 2008 with "never give up" http://www.trilulilu.ro/eu_silvia/5589a80647eebc Feb 6, 2008 it easy search in tineye

Not sure if Macron's tag to ~Morgenthaler worked or not.
Unfortunately, I do not remember the source. I think I just did a search for "Star Wars ghost ending" or similar and came across that gag comic.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"
Fallen Angel is potholed to Satan, but wouldn't it be smarter to pothole it to Gustave Doré, its artist?
I'd like to apologize for all this.
