Subject: Titles Space Is Kinda Short, Chucky

Have you changed the PARODY TITLE field length on the submission page? I couldn't fit the title I had containing 50 characters and spaces.
I have a feeling people will trouble trying to submit their'Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious' parodies in this manner ::), but so be it.

It's probably from when I did the script upgrades in July. I've increased it to 75 characters. I don't like super long titles, they tend to make the formatting of various pages look bad. They're also rather unrealistic, most songs have short titles.

Agreed on the potential of its abuse. Hopefully it won't come to that.

I was wondering about that, seeing as I'm considering parodying Pearl Jam's (I swear this is the actual song title):
"Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town"
Of course, the title isn't in the song, and to spoof Pearl Jam for using such a ridiculous title I was going to top them:
"A Very Long Parody Title That Bears No Relation To The Lyrics Just Like TOS Title Did"
Perhaps something shorter...
