# they all look the same
and it clogs up the board. It's not style, it's creative inertia. (sorry for the non fluffyness)

# what's it called again?
a meme or something isn't it? Or is it bandwagon, I don't know.

Go and have a look at bloggerheads.com, it's great, and you might see how far this joke has come.

Even if you don't buy the idea of doing the same image again and again and again - and still being able to raise a laugh or two - being the ultimate creative challenge.

So there.

# This has come out all unfluffy but
The real reason I said this is that I you're damaging the reputuation of b3ta with this continued posting.

Bloke in office said to me "b3ta. I went there. It was sad. Nerds photoshopping starwars. Tragic."

The central thurst is that, "The same person photoshopping the same pic all the time is very dull." No-one has put up a convincing argument otherwise.

please think of a new idea. You've clearly got a small amount of ability. You're wasting it by repeating yourself. No more starwars. Pretty please?

# first
you have to give proof that he's done it every day.

while you're looking, you may notice that lots of people shop similar pictures or variations on the same theme very often... it happens in many places, not just on b3ta, not just online even.

would you have told Van Gogh to stop painting sunflowers?

# no no
I love b3ta. Just hate seeing this particular image again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again and again.

None

# it might embarras the creator into thinking of a new idea
that's the plan. It's for everyones good. Even Monkeon was parodying this photoshop 6 months ago. And still it hasn't stopped.
(say-no-to-starwars-photoshops, Tue 3 Jun 2003, 13:29, archived)
# I'm wondering who you are
to tell anyone what to do? Or even to make suggestions? If I ever wanted to say something like that, I certainly wouldn't do it publicly on the board! Nobody "embarrasses" anyone into doing anything round here. You have missed the point entirely. People have photoshopped the same helicopter+shark or kitten photo 1000 times, and we still love them, because there's always a new twist. Go back to lurking until you've figured the place out.

Please.

# I am the voice of the (once) silent majority
who are sick of seeing the same pic time after time. B3ta at it's best is fresh, suprising and creative. At it's worst? The same image recycled to diminishing returns.

# checks your profile
Who is this great talent defending the starwars pics? Mr 2000 posts and no front pages. Ho ho. Your peer group has judged and you've failed. No wonder you like the bandwagon stuff - it's your only chance to join in.

lots of people getting irritated by you and... oh, that'd be none coming out in your siupport then? and don't start attacking me for a lack of front pages or whatever... some of us come here just to enjoy other people's creativity... and if we don't? we leave.
