Neither is this the dawn from the east, nor is a dragon flying above, nor are the gables of this hall aflame. Nay, mortal enemies approach in ready armour. Ravens are calling, wolves are howling, spear clashes and shield answers

Thanks guys
If a picture is worth a thousand words this one needs no caption...
So what do you guys think about having no captions? Personally, I like it. For one, it means that a funny caption no longer secures a bunch of votes. And instead of voting for the caption, you are voting for the picture itself.
In my humble opinion,
I think caption is important just in the same way it is in photography... Just to give a name, an identity added to the identity of the picture itself.
A movie, a music, a photograph, a paint, a print do not need hundered words... but a title, maybe.
I like to consider the screenshots I make like if they where photographs. That's why I prefere with caption.
About this contest, I find it verry interesting ; I think non-modified images and modified images does not contest in the same category.
One is a long preparation for the instant shoot, the second is a shoot with a long work of modification after that.
I think light alterations should be tolerated in the "unedited contest" (colors, saturations, levels, brightness, etc) ; I see it like workshop in photography.
And it is not the same as real transformation with infography work.
Exemple : I play the game with high brightness because my screen is quite dark.
So my screenshot will be a little constrastless, as the one I add in this contest. I want to change the contrast and levels without beeing "illegal" in the contest.
My English is quite poor so I hope I made me understand well...
All of theses were ideas, suggestions, do what you want with it, it's yours
Actually your screenshot looks beatiful on my monitor.Exemple : I play the game with high brightness because my screen is quite dark.
So my screenshot will be a little constrastless, as the one I add in this contest. I want to change the contrast and levels without beeing "illegal" in the contest.
And anyway, you could always submit it to the normal PotW instead, and be free to change things like that.
I will keep this one simple and have no editing allowed at all.
I understand where you're coming from with the "no captions" but if you're asking our opinions well you already have mine maybe put this to a community vote?

I didn't make a poll as it's not something that anyone with over 50 posts should decide. I'm glad to hear opinions from individuals though, like yours.
Personally, I like captions. I've certainly never voted for a picture based upon the caption--it can only do so much. But I enjoy captioning my pics, and it can help add the the flavor, so to speak.
Besides that, having an unedited pic contest is the best idea ever.
Huh huh ... Thanks
As you wishAnd anyway, you could always submit it to the normal PotW instead, and be free to change things like that.

The idea is just I won't submit my pictures anymore to the normal PotW because as I said I think a picture with colours and contrast edited and a picture modified to be something else (with a good sens of joke, talent, patience and a lot of work) definitely are not in the same category.
One looks like workshop to me, and the other looks like infography.
And it is sometimes very difficult to chose between verry good workshop and very good infography...
But hey, you are the boss And and say just my opinion because you ask it... I do not want to look like the bothering guy and will follow whatever you decide
No you're not bothering at all. I'm glad to hear everyone's opinions.But hey, you are the boss And and say just my opinion because you ask it... I do not want to look like the bothering guy and will follow whatever you decide :original:
