Yea or Nay?
I'm considering it, but haven't made up my mind. Is there a consensus out there? "the", "of", "in", "at"...are these fair game? |

I think some people have already mentioned they will penalize for that. As such I went strickly DPC since my entries can't afford any penalities but you should be fine! :P

mine was carefully constructed not using anything that was not a dpc.
i think it would be ok though. i am not sure i would vote down cause someone put "of" in the title.
would not want it to be too important of a word though. would probably hit someone pretty hard for that

I used an article in mine. The way I see it, and the way I'll be voting, any articles that normally would not be included in an anagram are good to go. Stuff like "the" "a" "an" "of"... all cool with me.
EDIT: I should also point out, though this is nitpicking and not entirely completly likely to be considered related, that all those little articles aren't part of a document's word count. Like if you need a 500 word essay? If you're doing it right, they don't count. So.... heh.

I'm avoiding it, since the challenge description does say "three word title."

I'll only be voting down if you failed to include the star of your film on the poster, and if that star isn't recognizable to the general world-wide public. So anything with Tom Cruise or JLo should be fine.
(Just kidding! And no, I won't deduct even fractions of a point should you throw an article in your title.)

Nay here. Busted my brain trying to think up of a three word title :P
Now that I got the title, now to go and shoot. Hope I can make it.

If it isn't 3 words exactly I'll be voting it down.
Finding a suitable 3 word title to fit the image is what makes this challenge so challenging.
I've still got nuthin'.

Does proper english matter? What about punctuation?
I can do D of P C or D:PC
Leaning toward the first one.

Dang, ok, I get the vibe. My picture already has issues so I'm working on a politically correct three word title... |

Good point, adding additional words (of, it, etc...) changes the entire context of the challenge and is certainly easier to fit a title to your image. But hey - have at it...maybe you won't get penalized in voting. This is similar to the D&L challenge and 3 of the top ten didn't use the '&' or 'And' in their title. ;^) |

I'm thinking just three words, to stay on the safe side.

Putting 'The' at the front of my title maked the title pop a little more but have left it out. I'll probably let a/of/on etc go, however, if I'm torn between (say) a 5 or a 6 then a 5 it will be

I had a "the" in my title but now after reading this thread I decided to kill the "the" :) |

I only used three words. The title was the hardest thing of this challenge. |

Since the challenge says 3 word titles, I'll vote down those with more than three words. Like Sir Bazz said, that's what makes the challenge so challenging. Use punctuation to your heart's desire!
