Option 3: Just the title, not the author name, correct?

Bea wrote: "Option 3: Just the title, not the author name, correct?"

Correct, the entire title. It's OK if the subtitle and/or the author's name is red, but they don't need to be red.

Dlmrose wrote: "Bea wrote: "Option 3: Just the title, not the author name, correct?"

Correct, the entire title. It's OK if the subtitle and/or the author's name is red, but they don't need to be red."

Thank you. I will be reading .

Got a few possibilites for option 3, if you could confirm the titles are red enough:

Any of those would work. [book:The Adventure of English: 500 Ad to 2000 the Biography of a Language|73893] would also work for option 1

For option 3. ?. The whole cover is red so I see the white as being around the title as a highlighter to enable them to be read not as part of the letters themselves. The title is げん��

Edit: nm, I have received a different cover anyway :-)

Wayne wrote: "For Option 1, can the genre be embedded or must it be stand-alone? Also, for Option 3, is this red enough?"

Embedded or stand-alone both work for the genre.

Do you have in hand? It looks orange not red. But I would take another look if you have more information

The cover on the author's website look red- this might be image variation

Thanks! I also though the first book was red, and then it looked more "orangey". But it's good that there are 2 books I can use

For option 3,

No, half the title is pink

Red enough for option 3?


And I think this would work for either Option 1 or Option 3

Will this work for option 3? It's a deeper red in person so thought I'd better check.

yes to both

yes, it works

Is this very dark blood red? I'm really not sure about the 'The' as it's very small. This is the version my local library says it has a copy of and I'm trying to look at this at night under lights and I'm squinting at my computer screen.

Hi,

Does this work for option 3 or ?

It looks like a gradient of black to red- and the "The" looks black.

It looks pink, not red. If you have a better image let me know

Dlmrose would you accept this as a red title?
