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.
Mod edit: Before posting here, please check the page source to see if the page has previously been discussed in Image Pickin'. Your question may already have been brought up in a prior thread.

It still feels like a very deliberate shot out to a famous romance scene might be a little to intentional but at least now they don't look into it like they did before. So, if everyone else is cool with it, I am okay with keeping it.

It's really bad. We don't see any blood, the text does the heavy lifting. Which, BTW, is unreadable.
Is the image for Terrified of Germs really that intuitive? When I first saw the picture I assumed the guy just didn't want to directly touch the bars on the ladder because they had gotten really cold overnight, or because he had something on his hands that he didn't want to spread (like a condiment). I can't even tell whether he's descending the ladder or not.

That's fair. I don't think it's outright non-illustrative, I'm just wondering if there's a better image.
Stepford Smiler is JAFAAC to me. It's a pic of the trope namer who is doing an unnatural smile, but rather than a smile covering despair, it looks more to me like an awkward attempt at a smile or a "I'm wooping your ass when we're back home, mister." Smile.
This is especially noticeable since the Live-Action TV subpage has a way stronger image.

Pearl's unhinged smile from the ending of Pearl is IMO way better and more clearly unstable despite the smile.

Funny.Jumanji The Next Level's picture is low quality to the point of being hard to read, which ruins the joke. Is there a better variant out there?
"Squid has to go to market. He's had to go to market for as long as he's sucked water."Please be sure to post such questions in the proper thread (in this case, the QU thread
)
Is it just me or is Punched Across the Room a poor example. I can tell the Hulk is punching something away, but the image fails to show how far he's doing so (the image only shows a foot or so), whereas the trope usually emphasizes a character hitting something/someone so far that it flies very far.
If all else fails, use fire.What's Ho Yay about HoYay.Kingdom Hearts? It looks like it's just two kids posing.

Even as someone who has played the games, I don't get it either.
For Symbolic Cast Fadeout could someone please translate the Japanese word that are written over most of the faded out characters?
Dead?

^^ The timing of the screencap was off. I replaced it with a shot of the more appropriate facial expressions.
