Here's the place to inquire about pages whose images aren't potholed to anything.
Google Image Search, Tineye
, and SauceNAO are good resources.
Images Without a Source lists the pages that have been discussed in this thread but haven't been sourced yet. Once a source is found for an image, please add it to the appropriate Image Source pagenote and remove it from Images Without a Source.
About Images and Copyright covers our general policies about image use; see here for more details and Image Pickin' forum policies. It's always a good idea to link images to their original versions and (when available) providing a link to the artist's site when they are located, especially if we're given permission to use an image.note
- Area 51 — mainly text, easy enough to do an alternate version.
- Blood Oath — clipart with text over a generic scroll.
- Broken Heel — clipart shoe.
- Editorial Synaesthesia — generic warning sign.
- Minsky Pickup — specific musical notation.
- Political Correctness Gone Mad — clipart wreath with text.
- Sequence Breaking — clipart maze.
- Themed Cursor — the image and the cursors are all awful, could be replaced with a screenshot.
- Villainous Demotivator — clipart skull plus text.
Edit: Black Box, Blown Across the Room, Double Jump, The End, Friday Night Death Slot, Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics, Horny Vikings, Rump Roast, Stock Femur Bone, Surprise Slide Staircase, Treasure Map, and Visible Silence have been replaced.

Can't get true confirmation that Closet Geek image is by avivor, and the caption isn't a source link. Remove or what?

The Undercover Troper
On Gave Up Too Soon, there is a link to the original image in the caption, but the image itself doesn't have a source link embedded in it, and there's no listing of it on any Image Source page.

Orcus on His Throne will always be my pet peeve.
Image Picking Thread says its Dnd 5e concept art, but I don't think that's right, the poster is just using it to illustrate their own concept?
https://www.reddit.com/r/3d6/comments/hal9g5/help_with_a_character_design_for_my_gf/
Dn D 5e is from 2014, 6 years older than the reddit post, and I can't find any reputable source for the image at all. Nevermind anything that calls it from Hasbro or anything.

I think it's "concept art" in the sense of "you can use this as a visual reference for your D&D character" and not "concept art" as in "this was made by WOTC for use in D&D but was ultimately not used/replaced". So it's probably either someone's fanart or a stock image of a druid and thus not actually kosher.

I found the source for Color-Coded Wizardry which is here:
https://www.flickr.com/photos/fallentomato/2785311109
I've added accreditation to the caption as it is released under CC BY-NC-SA 2.0 DEED
I've also upgraded the image quality whilst I was on because it had been a bit blurry
Here's the old version:

I can't see the image anywhere in the website cited by that post, though.

Picture name implies that it's a photo of https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/transformingsociety/electionsvoting/womenvote/parliamentary-collections/ladies-gallery-grille/grille-incident/
The Photo itself seems to be a variant of: https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-suffragette-chained-to-railings-35524457303-o-171932493.html
Which calls itself public domain.

Hmm...good to know, thanks. I was wondering if we could look for a replacement anyway, since I don't think it's intuitive that she's really "blocking" anything.

I'm sure there are some fictional examples of someone chaining themselves to a tree in front of a boulderer.

Where does the fan art for Draco in Leather Pants come from, since it only list the source material of FF7?

I’m sorry, but you have Stage 9 Animes.

Mascot Horror surely isn't from any of the games, but I couldn't find who've made the poster.

Tineye seems to suggest it's an officially-licensed wall poster. The fan wiki also categorizes it as merchandise; a logo for Trends International can be seen in the lower left, and an unreadable yet still apparent copyright is visible on the lower right.
