Heh, I am in with a shoehorn. Took a picture I liked and searched around until I found a country title that fit.
Barely even advanced editing. Probably won't do great, but I really wanted to enter something again |

| I have to get mine shot tonight. Out of the zillions of possible song titles, I have a funny feeling that several others will choose the same title I am going for... |

Got a back up shot in case my reshoot isn't good but I like the back up as well... Just want to tweak it a bit before I enter...
I most likely will put my title like this...
"Song title - Artist" I assume most people will either do that or something without the artist...
I just think I will like to listen to the song if I don't know it by the name and having the artist helps when it comes to finding it. |

I am going to try really hard not to grumble too much when there is a minimal editing challenge, if others don't complain too much about expert. At least on expert you have a choice to use it or not. With minimal there are no other options.
Plus, I almost get giddy with excitement any time one comes around. I have so many ideas floating around in my head and most of them are not possible with regular photography.
Don't get me wrong I don't think there should be a ton of expert editing challenges, but 1 or 2 a month would suit me just fine! |

| Not much time left for this question: can I use images not made by me as texture? |

Yes, but be sure you know what qualifies as a texture. There have been some recent DQ's over that rule.

This thread answers that question, but be very careful that it truly is a texture and not creating something new. There is a fine line. (I just remember reading this on this thread, but I don't know anything so don't take my word for it.) |

Thanks for the quick reply. Think I take the gamble. |

Yes! Just make sure you do it in overlay mode. It can't look like a picture.

LOL...this waterdrop was added as a texture using overlay mode. I didn't inquire as to how I could have done anything differently with the drop in order to be legal. I'm not sure if that water drop would have ever been legal as a texture.
To be safe, I'll now only use a photo of a close up of a brick, rock, cracked wood...etc..as a texture.

Probably a good idea. When you use a texture as an overlay, in essence what you're doing is attempting to make your photo appear as a three dimensional object. The texture overlay takes on the role as the surface of the 2D photo. The water drop in your photo doesn't acheive that. |

That's not a texture. That's a picture. That's the problem. |

From some of the comments here it seems like some people will be voting on the picture encompassing the meaning of the words of the song chosen. As I understand the challenge the picture just needs to represent the title as quoted here: "Take a photo that illustrates the title of a country song."
So, are we to submit a picture that illustrates just the title or the whole meaning of the song? Just wondering what everyone's take is on the challenge. |

I went with the title. Only because I don't know country music very well and didn't want to have to listen to it to find out what the song is about. I just picked a title off a web site listing country song titles. |

I'm going by the challenge description -- illustrate the title. I'm not a country song fan, so I wouldn't know the meaning of the song anyway.
So I'm glad it's just about the title. I don't want to listen to 72 songs. :) |

Mine is the title, but also the meaning of the song. |
