WARNING: The following post is entirely an angry rant.
Oh my god. So many of the graphics artists on this site are pissing me off. Neko is creative, fantastic, clever, almost inspirational. He is nothing short of awesome. He brought vector to this forum. No one had even heard of it before he started doing it, or they would have created and/or posted vector art previously.
It was fine when vector was still kind of new, and people found it exciting. I'll even admity, Neko is not the only one who can pull it off. But now every man and his dog wants to do it - and they are. It's lost the point. Neko's even gone off it. People sure now how to kill stuff. Good freaking work.
It's just true to every new, uniqu, creative initiative someone posts. It gets killed, because people want to freaking imitate it. Good freaking job idiots. I don't know who the person was who brought sparkly, glowy, c4d stuff to this site, but I remember that was cool... until every goddamn signature in sight was exactly the freaking same.
It's not just those two either. Back in '05 and '06, Grunge was the thing. Everyone did that. No-one killed it though, somehow. I guess it's because there's range in grunge. You can brannch from it, splatter, smudge, stuff like that. But that got done, and people thought it wasn't even good anymore, just because some Mr Popularity GnA mod goes and does something else. And the sheep think that's the new thing.
Just because something new is brought to this forum doesn't mean your have to imitate it to fit in. Goddamn hell crap turd. Even then, somehow it gets to the stage where t's no longer a flash in the pan, but, according to every SC Graphics resident/loser fucktard, it's the only style of Graphics art that exists. And then, guess what? It gets done. Passes it's use-by date. Jesus Christ.
Everyone here needs to learn not follow trends, because half the time they suck at it, and the other half they just end up fuelling newbs and n00bs who also suck at it.
