| Posted: | | | | I wouldn't use capitalization, i've seen an contribution using capitals and made a comment although i voted yes. And we both agree we need more space in the dividers, as well as in other features!

| Posted: | | | | If You would go with that, You would have to capitalize 90% of the film titles because they are written in CAPITALS. So this poll seems very dispensable to me. |

Paul Saw the same contribution which is what prompted me to ask the question |

| Posted: | | | | Converting to standard caps seems to be the norm, so that is what I would do. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned this lesson once. We will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free. - Citizen G'Kar |

| Posted: | | | | Probably one of my contributions that prompted this thread.
I was going on the premise that A) Ken has stated to use expanded information in crew dividers and, B) That the rules state to mirror the credits wherever possible.
...and C) That mirroriing the credits in these cases also makes the company name standout from the rest of the text.
However, I am really not fussed either way...so I shall re-do my contributions and resubmit.
....I will say this though....if this was a problem for some people then why the hell didn't you drop me a PM and let me know - if only to point me in the direction of this thread? Letting me carry on with something that everyone obviously disagreed with seems somewhat stupid to me! | | | Last edited: by Pantheon |

| Posted: | | | | I seem to recall being told that we should use upper and lower case.
Until there is more space provided for 1 divider, I always use 2 dividers (i.e. "Special Visual Effects and Digital Animation by" in one divider and "Digital Domain" in the other. If "Special Visual Effects and Digital Animation by" won't fit in one divider then I move whatever is necessary to the second one with "Digital Domain"). My 2 cents. | | | Marty - Registered July 10, 2004, User since 2002. |

Ken did say to abbreviate if it didn't fit, so something like Special VFX and Digital Animation by Digital Domain would be OK (but i would prefer that the divider length was increased) | | | Last edited: by ninehours |
