    ow yeah , a few more . . . not in order but just a few

    in the very beginning of GR , the tutorial of that movie in your sig was extremely populair so that was also a big trend then

    the user title bars like : i am a photoshop 7 user . . . like who cares what you use ?

    yeah the Advent Children period we also had and some still using but less then before

    the photomanips are also very much in use lately

    and also the trend i remember was that everyone had to be in a club or clan. We had the Demi-Godz who you obviously could consider as 'the elite of GR' but not its nothing more then a fancy avatar . . .
    other clan names i can't remember now


    ill sure to add more if i can remember

    ---- the trend

    make whatever comes to your mind, and dont try getting "inspiration" from someone, cause at the end it looks like a total rip :P

    I think it's good to get your inspiration from other sig makers only give your own twist 2 it. and make up things yourselves 2.

    But anyways that was my reaction 2 you now comes my reaction to this topic in particular
    ---------------------------------------------------

    Trends are there because they are cool. i mean everybody liked the alien league font. and everybody like the white glow.
    only there is a difference in trendwhores and trend followers.

    a trendwhore just takes on every trend there is(and they are right about that in some way cause it's cool) but...

    a trendfollower is one that tries a trend. if he likes it then he uses it in many sigs and not only when it is a trend. and the trendfollower tries to give it his own swirl his own piece of imagination.

    so my personal opinion is that trends are cool and you can follow them(there they are trends for) but i think you have to give it your own twist.

    for example:
    [​IMG]
    Here i gave my own twist to the movie borders

    And i did photomanips but not sigs i liked the big versions

    and for example:
    [​IMG]
    PixelStretching blended into the background

    Look who's talking. And you know this how? ... you shouldn't make such judgements when you don't know for sure.

    About the colouring. Infact, I did bring it to GR mainly, I wrote a tut and for the next month nearly every sig I saw was multicolour.

    But anyways, that's besides the point.

    Rave, you got all the trends there. VN list. ;)

    Everything is a trend, cause some1 somewhere else is doing it to, always. no matter what you do your not being original. maybe original on that site or those few sitse but no ones original, everyone is doing a trend.
