[up] You should probably put break lines in between your suggestions or have them in folders; looks like seven suggestions in one post when I think it's supposed to be five.

Leaning towards the last one (1.5?).

Break lines? What are they? And I didn't know folders could have only one example each?

[up] Four dashes that create a line.

- - - - (with no spaces)

Usually put after a trope or work description and before the "Examples:" header.

There are some tropers who, upon making an IP thread, put their image suggestions (often three or more) into folders. Makes things neater and cleaner. It's not necessary, but it does help.

I'm biased, but 1.2 > 1.5 > 1.4. [tup]

[up][up]It's also usually a helpful reference to use a sort of decimal formatting when a post has multiple images, being (post #).(image numbe #). So 1.2 is first post, second image and 1.5 is first post, fifth image. The reference can either be folder names or plain text with two backslashes (\\) to make a line break, so it doesn't crowd together.

Oh, I thought the four-dash thing was called a "straight line".

[up][up] I think that's the term I was looking for, yeah. Sorry about that. "Break lines" was just the first thing that popped into my mind. "Horizontal lines" are what they're called per Text Formatting Rules.

Art by DestinyBlue used with permissionnote 

As per the caption Destinyblue's artist FAQ.

States:

"Can I Share your art online? I love my art being shared! Please always remember to credit me and link people back to my page. You may only share my work if you provide credit. Please don't edit or crop my work, especially never remove the watermark. Please re-blog from me rather than re-post where you can."

And

"Can I feature your art? How very kind of you, please feel free to on your journal, website or wherever :heart:"

(I treat the watermark in this case like an artist signature as it doesn't disrupt the image proper).

So we can use it with credit.

[up] Oh, that's solid [tup]

I wanted to avoid voting out of bias for suggesting one of the images. But that one is probably the best option.

Hmmm...10's pretty good but a caption tying it a little more closely to the theme would help.

Updating my vote to 10 > 1.2 > 1.5 > 1.4. [tup]

[up] How about: 17.1

The hardest cage to escape is the one inside.

17.2
Ironically, art could uncage her sadness, but not her.

17.3
A look inside, to see she's trapped outside.

17.4
A "blue period" with chalk as a medium.

17.5 And for the puntential.
It's too early to draw conclusions, but her art shouldn't be chalked up to being board.
