Heartwarming Moments, Funny Moments, Moment of Awesome, Awesome Music, Tear Jerker, and Nightmare Fuel subpages tend to attract low-quality and unillustrative images that don't evoke the emotions they should, even if the scenes are examples in context. While it is very easy to pull them, the Image Pickin' forum has trouble finding replacements most of the time, leaving most of these threads to close due to inactivity and take up room while doing so.
In order to free up slots, this thread is designed to handle moments subpages with a single bad image.
This thread is not for:
- Start a thread in the following cases
- Removing an image because you already have an alternative suggestion on hand
- Moments page images that are duplicated somewhere else
- Moments pages with multiple images
- Pages that are on Image Pickin' Special Cases (assuming their status allows it)
- Images that you personally don't find funny/sad/heartwarming/awesome/scary, or can't fully glean the context of, but still have some visual element of the Moment they're supposed to evoke (for example, a messy explosion might still be worth keeping on an Awesome/ page even if you don't understand what's exploding, because of Stuff Blowing Up). Remember that these are YMMV items.
- If the only problem is that it's low-quality, try the quality upgrade thread
first.
- If the problem is that the on-page examples are bad, please see the Moments cleanup thread and the specific Nightmare Fuel cleanup thread.
How it works
- First, have you Failed a Spot Check? Check the page source: maybe a previous thread has explained the reasoning for why it's on the page. You can also go to the Ask for Explanations thread for other opinions.
- Link the page with the image you want examined. Please explain why you think it is a bad image (e.g. JAFAAC, "more funny than scary"). Posts without such reasoning will not be entertained. (You can use the Image Pickin' thread guidelines for reasoning help.) If suggesting multiple pages in a single post, please put them in a bulleted list to ensure that each entry can stand on its own and that they won't be missed when the crowner is made.
- Similar to the Image Suggestion thread, a crowner will be run containing the proposed pulls. Each crowner will run about 15 items at a time and last for 5 days. Please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
- After 24 hours, anything with 10 or up votes will be pulled.
- After 3 days, anything with 8 or up votes will be pulled.
- After 5 days, anything with a positive ratio of at least 2:1 will be pulled.
- Pulled images will be tagged as such:
%%https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1642193091068711500
%%Please do not add a new image without going through the Image Suggestion thread or starting a new Image Pickin' thread
This does not count towards their thread count.
If you think of a replacement image after an image has been pulled, you can use the Image Suggestion thread or start a new thread for a replacement.
Kept images will be tagged as such:
%% Image kept on page via crowner in the Moments Images Cleanup Thread: [crowner link]
%% https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1642193091068711500
%% Please don't change or remove without starting a new thread.

It is obviously one, since the movie is still in theaters. Not to mention the obvious color washout. I saw that scene not 2 hours ago, and that's a camrip.
Funny.The Sixth Sense - Small, somewhat blurry, and it doesn't seem clear as to what's being shown

—signature not found—
TearJerker.Wicked — Doesn't look sad out of context.
I'd like to apologize for all this.

Plus it might also be considered a spoiler.
Memetic Loser Mother
It's the main villain death, so yeah it might be a spoiler
- TearJerker.The Super Mario Bros Movie: Image is a spoiler, plus Mario's strained face and clutching his shoulder makes it look much more like he's hurt than sad.
What is the spoiler exactly? I've not seen the movie he just looks in pain.

That is uhh...not at all apparent from the screencap. This goes back to the 'not everything that happens later in the movie is a spoiler' discussion.

It's a screenshot of the climatic battle at the end. Bowser ends up destroying a lot of Brooklyn during his attempt on Mario's life and Mario has to take shelter in the wrecked pizzeria while Bowser berates him from outside.
Memetic Loser Mother
The quality is also poor

- Funny.Pingu: Not a visually funny image.
- Tear Jerker.Pingu: Just a crop of the title character shedding a tear, plus an "average reaction" caption.

A lot of good you did me.
Memetic Loser Mother
The Nightmare Fuel image of Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) is just some eyes in the dark. The movie isn't even released yet.

Images for Moments pages for upcoming works are instapull.
Memetic Loser Mother
It has been removed.
Memetic Loser Mother
NightmareFuel.Clock Tower 1995: It's hard to see what's going on in this image.
It's a guy with giant scissors.
Big Catch, Sparkle Edition
Yeah, that does not look like a person to me.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessOn closer look, that's because his face is covered.
I'd like to apologize for all this.
While the Ocean House Hotel in Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines is a creepy level. I don't think it will make for a good image for the Nightmare Fuel page.

NightmareFuel.Sapphire And Steel was listed on the crowner twice.

^ Edited one of them.
Macron's notes
The Undercover Troper
Tear Jerker.The Boondocks: Two issues. One, the blatant [adult swim] watermark is a bit distracting from what's supposed to be a sad moment. Two, and more importantly, the image veers a little too hard into Narm territory for me, what with the gaping mouth and bulging eye.
Orcus on His Throne will always be my pet peeve.
From Splatoon:
Just features a vague general gameplay screenshot relying on the quote.
Crown Description:

Yeah, it looks good for a camrip, if it even is one.
