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.

I believe the source of the image on Social Media Is Bad is this.
Maintenance?
Snuff Film appears to have a stock photo as a base [1], but this version appears to be original to TV Tropes.
You Are Not Alone seems to be fanart; the link in the caption is to a full version of the comic, but not the original source. Quality is also kinda bad.

Hi
![[up]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_up.png "[up]"){kind=icon}
That one was selected here...definitely needs a quality upgrade.

I gave it a PNG quality upgrade.
The source link for Body to Jewel is dead. Even the archived version doesn't show anymore. What should be done here?
Maintenance?
Made of Evil is missing a source.

Hi
The pic was originally added back in 2010, and then restored when someone made a troll edit on the page...I suspect that whoever added it just whipped it up in Paint or something similar.

Who drew the page image on Bowsette? The IP thread never gave any sources for the fanart, just direct image links.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.
Hi
I haven't had any luck tracking down the original so far.

The Horseshoe Effect lacks a source.

Can anyone track down Iwo Jima Pose?
Very Spooky
This seems to be the original source.
And it's for sale. Starting thread imminently.

EDIT: NVM apparently it’s from The Guardian according to image source

I think I found a source for the Bowsette image: [1] (It's SFW). It's not an exact replica as the current image doesn't have the little Mario and Peach heads though, but I can't find an identical version to the one on the page.

I think you found it; looking back to the image on the page, you can see airbrush marks where Mario's supposed to be, so whoever uploaded the image on the page edited him out.

Should I link the source on the image, then? Would it be better to use the unedited version?

Oblivious Mockery has no source at all.

Does it even illustrate? She doesn't seem oblivious to me...

The text is hard to read. Definitely replace. I suspect that it is an NSFW source.
The Horseshoe Effect is missing a source. Google Image Search is impaired by the large number fo similar images.

After some digging I found this post on DeviantArt which appears to claim the image for The Horseshoe Effect (scroll down a bit, it's in the middle of the entry). It is the earliest use of the image I could find. Hovering over the image credits it back to him, but the link itself is broken.

Upside-Down Blueprints lacks a source and looks like it could be a single-panel cartoon.
EDIT: I received a PM from Folamh 3, who claims that they created the image for The Horseshoe Effect.

Should this post be pinned, or closed in favor of the Long-Term Projects thread? One of them has to go as a duplicate.
I'm back!
It used to be pinned but was unpinned (along with the pending permission one) when other mods commented there were too many pinned threads. I think it's fine floating around as it's not one of the 'regular use' ones.
