Current image is just two weird creatures dancing in front of some sort of structure. Take away the caption and the image text and there would be no indication of this trope at all.

Googling "Shady Salesman" brings up some good potential replacements.

Yeah, definitely bring in a new one; I see nothing "shady" about the current one.

I think this one was chosen by the previous Image Pickin' thread.

[up] It was. IIRC it was chosen in the original Image pickin thread before it became a sub forum

Be that as it may, I honestly don't see the trope in the image. We can do better.

I think that it was also a case of "best of a bad lot". Having all of the image-related conversations muddled in one thread led to a fair number of those.

Is this the face of a man who would lie to you?

So, any objections to me putting it up now?

Nope. Seems like everyone likes this one and nobody's offered alternatives. Go for it.

We could do one of Akbar's] dealerships, but I'm not up to searching the very unhelpful archive right now.

I have a message from another time...
