What makes a good teaser photo?

[Alex Golec]

Personally, teaser pictures that show a plate with a hole or two in it annoy me. Why? Because it really cannot keep you on your toes. What my mind reads off those pictures is: "So their robot will have a plate with a hole on it..." If a teaser picture shows a part that has a million different uses, or is not original, than to present it is to waste server space.

Now that I've presented an example of a horrible teaser, let me present what I believe is an excellent teaser picture. The picture must show more than one part, preferably an assembly of some sort, and present it in a way that can show the audience what the basic parts are while keeping their use a secret.
Originality of the part is also a key, and in that way it will keep the viewers guessing.

With that said, I've spent my two cents for the day.
