This thread is meant to be a place for people to ask questions and request discussion about existing page images they have concerns about; this can be used to determine if a thread should be made to replace an image.

For example, questions about Just a Face and a Caption concerns, whether a picture requires additional context, whether a picture demonstrates all of the necessary aspects or a trope, or whether a trope better demonstrates a related trope can be asked here.

[up]The second panel clearly reads "It's a fake!" to me, but yeah it's too small.

Do we have permission for the pic on Darth Wiki?

My Grandson, Myself: I think the page's image does not illustrate well. The trope in the image is purely mentioned.

Better image idea: two pics of an immortal in two different eras.

The pic on Darth Wiki is less than half of the source image, so we're good there.

[up][up][up]Yes, that's scary rather than funny,

[up][up]Ugh, it's way too text heavy.

Would the pic on Fridge Horror count as an image macro? I don't think I've seen those panels anywhere outside of memes.

Hmm... I'm not sure if Silly Simian is all that illustrative of the trope, either. Deadpool is funny, but the image just appears to be him as a gorilla, and comes off as JAFAC. Probably a holdover from when the trope was called "Everything's Better With Monkeys".

Should I start an Image Pickin' thread for that? I think I could find a better picture.

[up] I've found an alternative suggestion for Silly Simian and started a thread (just waiting for it to be opened).

Can someone tell me where the "initially not taking it seriously" part in the image for Let's Get Dangerous! is? I see the "gets serious" part, but not the other.

Edit: Oh, that's Darkwing getting choked, not the villain, nvm I get it now.

[up] It's fine enough.

Is "X" Makes Anything Cool even illustrative? It's just an X.

[up] That latter's on No Pic Ever, and I don't get why that one in particular when most other incest tropes are fine to pic.

That doesn't mean it can't be overturned, but it'd need a thread first.

Charity Motivation Song?

It'll need replacing anyway due to quality, but is there enough context to just hunt down an upgrade?
