:Perhaps, but the image requires thought and connection to a particular story. The image currently in use is more visually arresting. It's a stop sort of signal, this image whilst connected to the idea of a 'spoiler' isn't a stop and look. Also as the spoiler tag is used through all 4 series' (K9, Torchwood, SJA and Doctor Who) the image shouldn't be one that is specifically connected to one and require the person reading it to have seen a specific story to understand the connection. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 14:48, 9 July 2009 (UTC) | :Perhaps, but the image requires thought and connection to a particular story.

- Perhaps, but the image requires thought and connection to a particular story. The image currently in use is more visually arresting. It's a stop sort of signal, this image whilst connected to the idea of a 'spoiler' isn't a stop and look. Also as the spoiler tag is used through all 4 series' (K9, Torchwood, SJA and Doctor Who) the image shouldn't be one that is specifically connected to one and require the person reading it to have seen a specific story to understand the connection. --Tangerineduel 14:48, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
- I like it. I would make it square, though. round looks a little strange. --Stardizzy2 19:18, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
