What's the point in changing the current image? It's perfect!

And the current image certainly has a wide lead over everything else suggested in the crowner so far.

If they all want Miko that bad, do something with This Comic

Sal is right. The ideal choice IMO would be the full last row of strip #406.

Disagree. First, it's a giant spoiler. Second, it relies more heavily on text without getting across the trope any more clearly.

It certainly works better, but I'm concerned about it being a spoiler.

Images should never be spoilers. Now, there may be some of the proceeding panels that would convey the same thing just as well, but those two are right out.

Seifer from Final Fantasy VIII comes to mind. He's even got the cross on his outfit.

Maybe one of Light from the Death Note manga, ranting about how he's going to make himself god of a glorious new world by killing people? He tends to do that a lot. Might be a bit texty, though.

[up] Maybe if we get a good visual image, since captions alone don't really do the job.

I'm still not seeing anything wrong with the current picture, and the current picture still holds a wide margin at the top of the crowner list.

Maybe some other paladins from Oot S instead Miko? Like the ones from Star Of Darkness?

The current image has such a commanding lead in the crowner that I think we should just call this done and go with it.

And just make an Image Links page for others.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

^Though most of the other pictures aren't very indicative of the exact trope.

The crowner has been up for nearly a month, and only one option is even in the positive totals at all and it has a slightly-over 75% approval count. I'd say we have a consensus. Do it, and put the others here: ImageLinks.Knight Templar.

I concur, looks like the current one works for all. Besides, the One Piece images certainly work, but in the end they're all JAFAAC (especially the Rob Lucci one) because what really makes the Marines Knights Templar is the lengths to which they continuously go to combat pirates, something you can't show with one picture.

^Then in other words, those images don't work at all.

The only image from the crowner that looks like a decent candidate for an Image Links subpage is the one that's already on Mattress-Tag Gag.

^They fit the bill, just not as picture children was what I meant. Probably would've been better to phrase it that way...

So, since I think the crowner has proven conclusive enough, can we call this Image Pickin' an Image Picked already?

Sean, Image Links doesn't have to have only proper examples. It can take JAFAAC, since it's about examples, not illustrating the trope.

Ayaaa.. This thread is like the 2004 election all over again. They're all so bad, so people vote for the best of the worst.

... Just saying. I can't really come up with any good pics, but I don't like any of what I see.

^^But what good is cataloging images as examples if you can't tell what makes the image an example in the first place? A non-indicative picture on an Image Links page is just as bad as an X Just X example on the main article.

^And I'm still not seeing anything wrong with the current picture.

As much as I hate the current image, no one else has come up with something better.

Should we stick with it, then?

"But what good is cataloging images as examples if you can't tell what makes the image an example in the first place? A non-indicative picture on an Image Links page is just as bad as an X Just X example on the main article."

Image links is about listing examples of the trope. That does allow examples that you might have to explain, since it's not about illustrating the trope to those who haven't read the page yet.

If you have a problem with that, take it up on a thread about image links in general.
