I'm noticing A LOT of Heath Ledger graphics now. Whenever a new Harry Potter movie or book comes out, there's alwaya a TON of HP related graphics. There's a big Twlight fanbase, so that's definitely a trend as well.
Anyone else notice current trends? What are you seeing a lot of? I'm seeing James Franco quite a bit lately. |

Yeah, I see these trends A LOT in the queue. I mean I don't mind but sometimes I get tired of seeing the same faces graphic after graphic. Sometimes the trends are in music artists, too. Like I see a lot of All Time Low or My Chemical Romance stuff.

The worst trend had to be the Pete Wentz/Fall Out Boy trend. I got so sick of it that I even made an icon to express my disgust (click!). The Twilight trend is starting to irritate me as well. I used to LOVE those books, but now I have no more interest in them because I'm sick of seeing it everywhere.

For a time I thought that if I saw Pete Wentz's mug one more time, I'd throw my monitor out the window. Oh not I, not at all. ;) Not just lately, but ever since last year. I agree; there are way too many Fall Out Boy graphics and layouts submitted. Pete Wentz is not even (that) attractive. QUOTE(SkyliteX @ Aug 18 2008, 07:00 PM) Im sick of Jonas brothers layouts, graphic, face, everything, lol :] Same here. They don't make good music, and I've seen too many Jonas Brothers things submitted. @_@ I think that fashion and model icons have always been a big subject trend, along with graphics using scenic images. |

^ OMG I HATE THAT COMMERCIAL.
They play it all the time on the TVs back in electronics at work. It is so IRRITATING. I remember when Pride & Prejudice came out there were TONS of graphics. I, myself, made a lot. It was a good movie, what can I say. Ironman was a definitely a noticeable trend. |

I'd like to see someone start a random trend and see if it takes off. Like fans. It's hot as hell. I want to see fans and air conditioners be a trend. Or "copy" stamps. I used a copy stamp a lot yesterday at work. haha
I remember the big Pirates/Johnny Depp fad a while back. I was getting pretty sick of seeing Jack Sparrow everywhere. |

Why can't they use stock pictures or something. Personally, I hated looking through all those layouts with FOB, JB, and now Twilight.
If they're going to make a graphic with them on it, at least make them look good. |

They ruined that song. And Target commercials. I was a big fan of Target commercials up until now. They used to be so cool. I mean, they'd take stuff like toilet paper and make it awesome. |

The fan thing seems interesting. Damn, why didn't I think of that for the LIMS summer theme?
I've been seeing a number of Big Bang layouts on cB lately. Not a lot, but more than other jpop/kpop/asian groups. |

Haha I honestly believe that close to half of the MCR graphics on this site are made by rather me or my cousin (breathingsleepingscreaming). What can I say? They're my favorite band ^____^ I have been noticing a lot of JB graphics. And though I have contributed to that a little (only four graphics though!) it's getting a little crazy. Twilight is most definitely big, as is The Joker. Been seeing lots of Asian stuff. I actually recognize a lot of it too 'cause my cousin is obsessed with JDramas. XD |
