Okay so I don't mean to rant but.. can't we all just call it quits with the Twilight layouts and graphics? I mean god, theres three Twilight layout on the main page. I know that people like it and all but damn. There should be a limit to one Twilight submitted layout per person.

Sorry XD

All fads subside and wane. Just give it time. A couple of major things happened this year in the Twi-verse (the final book came out and the film based on the first novel opens this month) so it's understandable that a lot of graphics would have Twilight related subject matter.

Just be patient. ;)

I was surfing through recent layouts yesterday and all that I could remember was Twilight.

It'll die out soon though, don't worry.

I agree that there's way too much, but like everyone said, it will die out. The movie comes out November 21st, so it will probably slow down a little while after that.

Trends come and go. Eventually the layouts and graphics won't be as popular, as the standard will increase since there are so many. Then, hopefully, people will get the hint and not submit as many. It's funny when a big movie (like The Dark Knight) comes out and we get a lot of submissions using it.

Why wouldn't it? Within a month after the movie comes out, the amount of stuff made will definately go down. The same thing happens when Harry Potter movies or books come out. Right now there is nothing happening in the HP world, so there really aren't any graphics.

Do you not remember all the Camp Rock crap? MAN! I haven't even seen the movie but after seeing all those damn graphics, I pretty much don't need to.

But seriously. JUST WAIT.

Mark my words.

Twilight will loom around for probably the rest of the year. Then, in I say, January-ish it'll die off.

You know, I haven't even checked out the layouts on cB for like...years now, so I have no idea what y'all are talking about, what with Jonas Brothers XD.

I don't mind the trend in the graphics/layouts so much as the.... sameness and crappiness to all most of them.

I think that this is, by far, the best Twilight layout I've ever seen. If all of them were like that, I wouldn't mind the madness so much.

That layout is amazing. I found myself in a dumb stare for a second. It's so...awesome. Like, whoa.

That's because all of the original HSM fans all grew up and realized how PATHETIC it is.

And, uh, yeah. It's going to happen. The Jonas Brothers movies, that is.
http://news.lalate.com/2008/10/28/jonas-br...rs-farting-dog/

Just, take a breather before you read the title of the movie. I busted up laughing hysterically with weird images of those 3 and the phrase "farting dog".



And yes! The Joker graphics did get old incredibly quickly. By, like, August it was already dead. *nods*

I'm with yah! HSM is disgusting. And Zac Efron the cutest guy of the year? shittt. I can't stand Disney. The only good shit Disney has ever made is the stuff thats on VHS Tapes! I can only stand to listen to Demi Lovato.. camp rock is horrible as well. And don't get me started on Miley Virus.

i kinda agree. but then again i don't.

it's their prerogative to make the kind of layouts they like... i think as long as each one by the user is different enough there shouldn't be a problem.

Here's the thing - if a designer wants a lot of people to use their layouts wouldn't they create designs based on what a lot of people like? A LOT of people like Twilight so it makes perfect sense that we'd see a lot of Twilight material.
