The current image on Morning Sickness isn’t as clear as it should be. For all we know, the designated driver could have been vomiting for numerous reasons.

I wanted to use panels 4-5 from this Breaking Cat News strip as a replacement but I don’t think it look good wikisize….

Pull the current, but I don't like the suggestion either. The text is unreadable at wikisize, and it's not even clear enough that the woman is pregnant.

EDIT:[up] Strongly disagree. The woman is quite obviously pregnant.

I made a vertical stacked version. It's a little awkward because of the irregular panel size and shape, but I think it looks good enough.

[up]That's clearer at that size, at least.

Do we really need the second panel?

[up] It's not absolutely necessary, but the cat is suggesting that she puke on the carpet like a cat does so that's enough humor value for me to say keep it.

It’s not necessary. I kept it because I thought it was amusing but if it detracts from the image, I don’t mind getting rid of it.

First panel only is enough.

[up] I agree. I think it's a little bland with just the top one.

Here's a one panel version regardless.

We can use the dialogue of the second panel as a caption.

The pic/caption combo is in and tagged. Pothole the last sentence to Comically Missing the Point?
