Heartwarming Moments, Funny Moments, Moment of Awesome, Awesome Music, Tear Jerker, and Nightmare Fuel subpages tend to attract low-quality and unillustrative images that don't evoke the emotions they should, even if the scenes are examples in context. While it is very easy to pull them, the Image Pickin' forum has trouble finding replacements most of the time, leaving most of these threads to close due to inactivity and take up room while doing so.
In order to free up slots, this thread is designed to handle moments subpages with a single bad image.
This thread is not for:
- Start a thread in the following cases
- Removing an image because you already have an alternative suggestion on hand
- Moments page images that are duplicated somewhere else
- Moments pages with multiple images
- Pages that are on Image Pickin' Special Cases (assuming their status allows it)
- Images that you personally don't find funny/sad/heartwarming/awesome/scary, or can't fully glean the context of, but still have some visual element of the Moment they're supposed to evoke (for example, a messy explosion might still be worth keeping on an Awesome/ page even if you don't understand what's exploding, because of Stuff Blowing Up). Remember that these are YMMV items.
- If the only problem is that it's low-quality, try the quality upgrade thread
first.
- If the problem is that the on-page examples are bad, please see the Moments cleanup thread and the specific Nightmare Fuel cleanup thread.
How it works
- First, have you Failed a Spot Check? Check the page source: maybe a previous thread has explained the reasoning for why it's on the page. You can also go to the Ask for Explanations thread for other opinions.
- Link the page with the image you want examined. Please explain why you think it is a bad image (e.g. JAFAAC, "more funny than scary"). Posts without such reasoning will not be entertained. (You can use the Image Pickin' thread guidelines for reasoning help.) If suggesting multiple pages in a single post, please put them in a bulleted list to ensure that each entry can stand on its own and that they won't be missed when the crowner is made.
- Similar to the Image Suggestion thread, a crowner will be run containing the proposed pulls. Each crowner will run about 15 items at a time and last for 5 days. Please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
- After 24 hours, anything with 10 or up votes will be pulled.
- After 3 days, anything with 8 or up votes will be pulled.
- After 5 days, anything with a positive ratio of at least 2:1 will be pulled.
- Pulled images will be tagged as such:
%%https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1642193091068711500
%%Please do not add a new image without going through the Image Suggestion thread or starting a new Image Pickin' thread
This does not count towards their thread count.
If you think of a replacement image after an image has been pulled, you can use the Image Suggestion thread or start a new thread for a replacement.
Kept images will be tagged as such:
%% Image kept on page via crowner in the Moments Images Cleanup Thread: [crowner link]
%% https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1642193091068711500
%% Please don't change or remove without starting a new thread.

I didn't include this one on the new crowner.
As Awesome.Singin In The Rain has multiple images, it should be handled by a thread of its own, not an item on the Moments cleanup crowner. As soon as a slot opens up, we can start a thread.

TearJerker.Happy Happy Clover - Just an image of the titular character frowning. That's it. Of course, It Makes Sense in Context, and people wouldn't understand the image without context!
I've actually tried many times to discuss about this one.

NightmareFuel.Unfriended Dark Web: Same issue as NightmareFuel.Unfriended - the image doesn't seem to have come from the movie itself, and the evil prescence hinted at in the caption is barely visible.

- Funny.SpongeBob SquarePants Season 9: Just a board game.
- Awesome.SpongeBob SquarePants: Just a character cheering. Nothing awesome happening.
- Heartwarming.The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie: Just a character cheering. Nothing heartwarming happening.

Called the top six on the current crowner - they've been pulled and the usual comment's been added.
We've got others that can also be pulled now, so I'll work through them when time allows.

~paigeledewott - I've blanked the crowner item you added. As the header and crowner description state: Please do not add items to a crowner once it's running.
So, the image for NightmareFuel.Honkai Star Rail was changed from this:
to this:
I'm still pretty new to this website, so I'm not so sure on what we should do about this.

Make a new Image Pickin thread about it. That's what you should do.

I just reverted it and sent a notifier.
- Awesome.The Nightmare Before Christmas: Just two characters and a caption.
- Funny.The Nightmare Before Christmas: Just someone making a paper snowflake.
- Heartwarming.The Nightmare Before Christmas: Poor framing makes it hard to tell what the two characters on the hill are doing.
- TearJerker.The Nightmare Before Christmas: Just someone lying on a statue.

If you need context to understand why the image is funny, then it's not a good image.

Angry babby
I think Tear Jerker, or something else from the scene, could work in theory, but it's really low quality and hard to make out.
The spider paper snowflake is a very weak keep for me, since I at least know what the joke is.
I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Please don't unilaterally pull images without waiting for the Crowner to be formally called.
Even if it's at the deadline, it needs someone with mod access to edit the crowner item (adding "CLOSED" to deter further voting) and the results post. Pulling images without those changes just causes confusion.
We've now got a few in that state. I'll tidy them up over the next day, before the crowner ends entirely.
Everything at 8+ has been pulled, archived, and marked as closed on the crowner.
Skipped Awesome.X Men 97 — the quality upgrade was well received [1]
For the One Piece one, it's not just "a big guy lying down" because there's also the smaller guy standing in front of him. I assume from this that he knocked him out.

I'd like to apologize for all this.
Crown Description:
This crowner covers posts from here to here (inclusive) and may run for up to 5 days, depending on voting.
- Vote UP to pull an image; vote DOWN to keep it on the page.
- After 24 hours, anything with +10 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be pulled.
- After 3 days, anything with +8 or more and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be pulled.
- After 5 days, any remaining items with a positive vote and a ratio of at least 2:1 will be pulled, any items below the 2:1 ratio will be kept, and the crowner will be closed.
- If an item has a (CLOSED) note, there is no need to vote on it; the result has already been decided.
- Do not add more items to the crowner once it's running.
Just to confirm that we saw the request for a new Crowner. Looking at it now.
