Yes Magali, way to go! Very well spotted.

Never paid much attention (cos I never call myself) but the last three #'s of my cell phone are 333.

:woot:  Oh ? really ? 

LOL at Magali. Great spotting of that three-some. :^)

Hi Piet. Any threes recurring in my life?  Well the three goofers sure get in the way a lot, lol. They're the biggest 3 in my life. :^)

For those of you that don't know, the 'goofers' are my giant Rhodesian ridgebacks ( dogs ). Piet and I both have ridgebacks. :^)

Watch it Flannelman, your softer side is showing... your decorating talent really shines in this shot. Yes, I know...I saw it right after you did it, but it still is one that amazes me. You did good! I'm amazed you remembered your phone number! HA! Now I bet you'll claim there are 3s in your address and your zip code!

Piet and Sharilyn:

Any way to relax your three entries per member rule vis-a-vis three objects in a photo for August?

I've already posted my three and have several more shots in this category I would like to add to the Forum.

LOL @ Flannelman's softer side!

Marlene, my current dog is also my 3rd since I could keep a dog.

Harry: Shari did request a relaxation of the rule of 3 entries per member but I think she either did not get permission or the outcome was negative. I suppose they were concerned I may enter all 3 my dung photos I recently uploaded, too! 
:b_shocked:

Oh, and when I checked on preparing the LWitG for Monday, what do I see? It is week 33...

... drum roll, please ...

"The Three Amigos!"

(Okay, they're all electronics geeks, not actors, but hey ... it's close!)   :)

Hey Piet. I didn't know you're a coordinator, too. Sorry for not extending my congratulations to you as well, when I congratulated Shari earlier.

Congratulations to you, too! :thumbupboth:

Now I see why this thread is so popular. The photo team has made two really great choices for coords. :^)

Hats off  and congrats to you both for doing such a bang up job around here and getting people actively participating.  It's great to see. :^)

Edit because we overlapped... LOL at AuntieK's three amigos!

Its a compilation of   3 photographs, my son in law, the cloudy skies of today, and a glass of beer  all done in PSP ( I had to stroke the glass of beer to get the shape and the djinny alive)

Cornelis
Btw, great snailsong..
 

Hey wow... that's really impressive work and a great conceptualisation of 3.

I love that....Three wishes. Well done!!!

Oooooohh.  Three wishes ... that's great!

Just ppping back over to see developements, MAN O MAN!!!, you guys are tendering some great entries :)

Piet and Sharilyn, I'm going to post another threebie and see what happens. The worst thing that can happen is that I'll be banned for life! Harry

I love it, Tara! Three Amigos is perfect! It great to see all these threes! I know we are limited to 3 shots of the 3s and the more I think about it, that's part of what makes this challenge so intense...we all go out and shoot 3s and it continues to haunt us long after our 3 photos are posted. The number of 3s that are possible are so many!

That 3 wishes concept is a unique, creative and really outstanding idea. And turned out really fantastic!

1)  The term "hat trick" implies that three goals have been accomplished.
2)  The hat itself is doing a little trick
3)  There are three medallions on the hat.

Three ways to get three, with one image.  (And it's my third one, just for good measure.) 

Life is good.

"Hat Trick"

Well, well, well! (3 wells!)

:b_funny:

I never thought this to be possible and to be honest I thought this forum had peaked but was I wrong! All the entries are so unique and creative, good one Cornelis and Tara, welcome to the show!

Thanks Marlene, but as you can see Shari has really done well! Congratulations to you colleague!

Where is she by the way????? Shari!!!!!! Goodness just when one needs the forum coordinator....

quietly tip toes in   and it is like a surprise party!  WOW...........

OMGosh you guys !!!   you've kept this thing GOING GREAT!  Too many to recall is RIGHT!!  LOL  wow.. i'm overwhelmed by the great photos and FUN that's happening with this challenge!!!!

Marlene .. thank you for the sweetest compliment i have heard all day ... shucks did you read that piet ??? :)  she's a doll, isn't she ??? :thumbupboth:

Harry I'd hate to see you banned for life !!!!  :-(   :-(  :-(    please be good ... that's all i can say, the rest is up to you!  :b_sad:

Piet .. I'm here .. you can relax.  you and I must stick together ...... this is just going TOO WELL!  10 pages!!!  :thumbupboth:

I love you guys .. you're just so fun....!

P.s.. AND THERE'S THAT PHOTO MANIP!  LOVE IT! :)

Thank you!  :)

  * takes a bow * 

This is a fantastic thread ... I'm glad I finally got around to visiting!

As long as we are confessing, I joined in a  2 or 3 forum challenges early last year and gave it up. There was no limit other than "use your best judgment," on entries and some would post 20 or more photos while I only had 2 or 3. I was overwhelmed and gave up entering.

With the 3 entry limit here, it seems to give everyone the chance to enter something without  discouraging anyone. In fact, it seems to be working the other way - it is making everyone hungry for more. :-) I bet everyone starts looking forward to next month so they can get in on the fun again. 

Alas and alack, my paintshop skills aren't quite up to scratch..so I will just have to hope 3 jump out at me in the next few days.

Quote - Thanks piet, for lodging that song now in my brain ... it wont go away you realize till next week!  LOL Good singing though btw   :-)

Clive, i love the RAce to the finish too .. how perfect!   

i'd love to see more with apples and snails :-)  we could do a challenge on that next time.. "snails and apples" ............... with you in there PJ,  we'd have more than 9 pages LOL  love it :)

Lookin' forward now to that photo manip **micturn .. bring it on! ** :biggrin:

have a fun saturday; I get to work this morning & then go to mom's to install her DSL. 

tah tah!

**micturn - I'm sorry -- I thought that photo manip was yours!  but was Rocserum!  :blushing:  Hang in there .. there's still time!!!!

PJ - interesting what you have to say!!!   So ... limiting to 3 makes 'em all hungry for MORE... making them look forward to the next challenge.. I do hope you are right.  Hopefully next months will be as successful and as much fun as this one has been! 

** **dhama - perfect submission for the challenge!  GREAT find! :-)

I agree with PJ.  Limiting a thread like this to three submissions keeps things interesting.  Personally, I don't want to see 20 images by the same person - it's like being around somebody who just won't shut up.  They dominate the field, and it isn't fun for anybody else.  It's different in a running thread (like "The Picture Below Me," for example) because it's a dialog, and different people jump in and leave and come back, and it's interesting and fun.  I like the limit of three per thread for these challenges! 

My softer side is showing? Well yeah, its a flannel thing. And there are 3's in my address, zip code and birth year. And did anyone see     those 3 snails on a apple or vise versa?
Re: limit 3
We can always post as many as we want in our own gallery and mention this fine thread to encourage new entries.
Ok i'm going to go turn my flannel shirt inside out and see if it really is softer on the other side.
My thanx to those that posted for creativity and new ideas.
fm ;-)

micturn! You are brilliant! A challenge of snails and apples! Gosh! Wouldn't that be fun?

So, Flannelman, you are saying that 3 other things in your life have 3s? Funny how that happens.  Sorry to expose you and mention a softer side... blows that hard-as-nails reputation, huh?

dhama, I love your entry! Great shadowing to bring out those grooves and stones!

Shari, we are having too much fun. Thanks so you and Piet! 10 pages and still counting...

Yes PJ, we have fun ! thanks to Shari and Piet again

We had a similar vote about challenge entries in the Bryce forum.... ahem! it was me that started it. But in my defence, it was only because I had heard it elsewhere at Renderosity.

After much debate at the Bryce forum, I can see the need for limiting entries. I get the impression, and of course this doesn't apply to everyone, but perhaps some like to enter more in challenges because it seems so long till the close date, and one might like to keep others aware of their work...specially if they had entered very early on in the challenge LOL!

Well thats my psychological theorem, based on nothing more than my own lack of confidence.......... dhama goes off to get a cup of coffee and imerse himself in Bryce.....

I love the way that you have captured the 3 toy Bugs on camera.**

Hear ye, hear ye! To all members of Renderosity! Isn't it about time that Renderosity returned to the classic normal way of printing titles and comments? That is, black text on a white background. The current white text on black is very hard and uncomfortable to read, at least for me. Other Renderosity members have complained about that to me also. If white on black is so wonderful, then newspapers, books and magazines would have adopted that format going all the way back to the invention of paper. Admittedly they do use it, but only on the rare occasion a sidebar may be needed. White text on black may appear arty and chic, but after a while it gets real annoying. And we've already had too long a stretch of that. I've already posted a similar message in the suggestion box and to Renderosity administration, but that was some time ago and nothing came of it. I could use some help here, so if you agree please voice your opposition to the current white text on black page format via any method you deem proper. Your humble protester.

@ Goodoleboy,
I understand what you mean & expect

It's not the purpose of this thread... OK maybe you'll be read by the administrators
But please stop trouble this thread of threes, we are happy with

You can write your grievances in another thread & forum or in an IM

Sincerly

Magali!!  Thank you!!  You are so sweet to think of us.  You are obviously a LADY and as cute as a BUG.  (get it?? ladybug... hmmm.)

Anyhow...My kids are often viewing all this fine work over my shoulder.  I will show them what you've written to us. 

So many glorious entries and positive words here.  I truly AM looking forward to the next challenge.

Harry ... I wish I had the powers here to make viewing these pages easier for you .. is "bigger better" for you?  (hehe)  anyway .. I'll try this.  I'll see what strings I can pull, if any ... I'm just a little peon here.  Do you have one of them non-glare screen cover thingies?  My friend at work cannot read anything on RR pages because of her non-glare thingie.  Wish I could help..........

I come back from school shopping and find more great entries!  you are are the best ... the guine pigs  and ladybugs and flower are excellent.

page 11 and still going strong!   wooo hooo!

 Busi_Ness told me to contribute and I don't want to let him down so here goes.

 Oooh I just bothered to read the rules and directions, LOL guess I better check my sizes!

hey Wendy!  glad you finally joined in on the fun!  Two great submissions there .. !!  As you can see, we are all plagued by the number 3 .. in one form or fashion .. we all may need therapy... if you find yourself looking for 3's at every turn, that's a sign .. you may need help to.   LOL !!  Great to see you !!

Spoke   en like a wheel observer ;-)

Magali,

Thanks for the suggestion but I write and send my grievances anywhere I deem proper.
