These signs from the SCP site are already sexy enough.

I have no problem with the removal of the images from the labels... but I don't find it to be that much of a big deal.
How else will people understand they are being chased by old man 106 if the chamber doesnt have the lable with his pic on it?

Besides its not like the pictures of the SCP's are THAT specific in the labels. Tbh the labels are quite terrifying.
*looks at 106 lable*
-Oh fuck me sideways. I do NOT want to have to face such a terri...- wait, whats that noise?
They will know because of the documents. I think that labels aren't reallistic at all, and it will be more creepy that you only could know how do the SCPs look like reading the docs.

(Wow, I think I'm improving my English a lot posting on this forum :D Thank you all xD)
You know, this could actually force new players to collect as many pages as they can to inform themselves since they have no other choice. It just seems like, I keep seeing all of this new lets players ignoring the papers and not reading them at all which kinda makes me furious.
Cod as call of duty 2, im not really into the newest ones.

Even if you remove the pictures as a way to pre-emptively identify the SCPs, the players that ignore the papers are still going to ignore the papers, because it's not changing the reason that they ignore the papers in the first place, which is that they are either dumb enough to not realise that the document explaining how to survive the monster will help them survive the monster; or are too lazy to examine a document if it isn't automatically narrated audibly by the game. Possibly both.

SCP Name Format?

*This is a little more to Mirocaines Topic*

Anyways, The name tags are great. but as said, i think aswell they shouldnt include the picture of the SCP. As in it would scare the player more and so and so. (Read Mirocaines post for more info)

Anyways, Heres how i kinda thought the format should be:
Image
yes, I do bad pic editing and so on. But this would just be kinds the template. Wutcha think?

The picture would still be on the document. My only worry is that curiosity will still get the best of most players and they'll foolishly just venture into the containment chambers regardless of picture or not and risk dying. If they keep dying while going in there it may teach them to find/read docs before going in, but those might be all the way across the map or likewise..

CB is sort've becoming a bit of a dungeon crawler without all the crawling now, I like it, I'll need graph paper soon to keep track of maps and they're layouts.
