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.

Oh yeah that's pretty bad lol. It's sourceless too; I thought it might have been from an old B-movie, which would help narrow down better pictures in one place.
If you look at the light part of the clouds, it's making an ">:(" face, but it's very subtle.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallAny other thoughts on this
? Wondering whether I should make a thread
Seeking Sanctuary entirely text-reliant, and thanks for the uploader update or it wouldn't be readable months ago.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupDoes Murder by Remote Control Vehicle really show that the vehicle is being remote controlled out of context?

Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadIs AlasPoorVillain.Fan Works illustrative ? The caption seems to do the work

Not at all. Is the mohawk looking guy the villain or the hero? Or is it the woman who's the villain?

Does anyone else could ActionGirl.James Bond benefit from a shot where you see the character's face?

Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadThat image's quality isn't great, but I can tell they're a woman without seeing their face.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallAgain my problem isn't that but just that I think seeing her face would nice as it a bit weird to just have a image about characters where you can't tell who the character is.

Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadI mean, IDK. It doesn't need it for it to be illustrative, so why are you concerned?
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallBecause like I said the trope is about characters and out of context you can't tell who the character is. There's a reason that on most other pages you show the face because it is about the character.

Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadI mean, you did edit your post after I made mine. How was I to know?
I don't think it's a major deal, but we'll see what others think. I'm not the hugest fan of the image anyway, I just don't think it's bad enough to remove right now.
Working on: Author Appeal | Sandbox | Troper WallYeah good point on me editing my post and I apologize for that.
I might look to see if I can find a better image.

Fan-Preferred Couple cleanup threadI feel I'm missing context for Next Stall Shenanigans and only the second panel is sufficient.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupJudging from the caption, I guess one of the girls in the first panel, although im not sure who, shares a hivemind with the girl in the second panel. So when the joke was told in the first panel the girl in the second panel reacted despite being no one near them.
But yeah, it's difficult to figure out and I don't think "laughing at a joke" is sufficiently weird for the trope

Anyone else think the current photo for Hostile Weather sucks? It's just a photo of an overcast sky without any indication that this weather is dangerous or deadly.
If all else fails, use fire.
