However... I don't feel that the 3rd example is relevant. To me that's a training/instruction image. I often use red circles when I'm documenting how to do something. That wouldn't phase me at all.

I use red boxes in my screenshots to call attention to designated items. Seems more professional to me than ovals.

Re: Silly pics...what'cha got??....maybe NSFW
We understood that. It's that you don't like redundant captions. I'd say that caption brings a bit more to the picture. The picture itself would be funny. The caption adds a bit to it.

I disagree. I originally saw that photo without any caption, and it was funnier for me because it made me stop and think about the context, giving me a little "Aha!" moment when it clicked. The caption commits the cardinal sin of explaining the whole joke up front, which diminishes it IMO.

Re: Silly pics...what'cha got??....maybe NSFW
I could go either way. (Bah-dum-tsh!)
My main point was that it does potentially add something. It's not completely redundant. Now, whether that addition is worth it... that's a different debate.

I would not have caught the joke without the caption. I'd have just taken it as an intentionally absurd bathroom sign.Max Peck wrote: ↑Wed Sep 18, 2024 1:24 pm I disagree.
