People:

isoprop, you can start here:

Back in the day people use to react to threads with useful information that pertained to the thread.
Now NT is full of Transfatty's random img posts.
No offense to Transfatty.

transfattys random imgs are fun though

you know what, transfatty randoms images are fine, but not in this thread.
I have no idea how to do those 3D explodes and I still think they're cool. Does that make me a bad designer? don't think so. Before you go bashing someone else, look at yourself. Most of the people here call themselves designers, but can't explain anything they do [work] with anything more than "it looks cool"
I am begging the people of this thread and NT... stop the highschool bashfest, most of us here are professionals... and I hope you wouldn't treat your co-workers like that.

wow, one thing i learned from this thread is that people still like 3d abstract stuff.... interesting
i sorta like them too

some 3d trendy stuff is actually well done, and sometimes there are those that are just sad replicas that couldn't stand for itself, like those that are obviously done by kids who just got their hands on a new G4 and a cracked version of 3dmax, and unfortunately the ones that are truly good gets dissolved by these easily replicated no-good goodies.

sapphire: thanks
I think part of the reason I enjoy them is becasue I don't know how to do them. I don't care if it's trendy, if it looks cool, then why cut on it?

the word Trendy should not be confused with Mediocre, if Trendy is bad, then Sex is bad too.
Sex sells right? and ain't that trendy... shit, if trendy is bad then I wouldn't know what advertising agencies are planning ads for...

G4 and 3dsmax hahahaha. You *are* aware 3dsmax runs only on windows?

I like it the way http://www.mecompany.com and http://www.renascent.nl/ do it.
But for most others. Bad typography and standard filters are always a bore :P Put some more work into it and I'll love it. If it's good, it's good.

Oh and the reason most people hate the trendy stuff I guess, is because it seems like you're opening the same site over and over again. Same portfolio, same layout, same amature photography :P. The only difference is that some do it a bit better than others :)
Don't immitate. Innovate! Haha HUGO crappy strapline :P
- Sapphire0
thats the way uh-huh uh-huh i like it

"oh, fuck me.. shit i dont know.. i dont have 3d fucking max "
Taking uninformed potshots, aight...

What's more irritating than the abstract 3d thing is the 'big helvetica text in lower case with minimal lining' (and hey, throw in some 45 degree arrows just for the hell of it) thing that is *still* everywhere. Worse is that shit getting linked up in the broadcast sections :(

Hey guys i didn't realize that the word "trendy" could start a so futile discussion..the major react answers are useless and futile.Thx to Kpl and unfittoprint for the real answers, for the remaining people i have a question: don't you have some work to do or something better that writing bullshits on PV-AN? Let die this fuckin thread please or we will arrive at 1000 useless thread.

Well maybe it's because you asked us so nice isoprop. Thanks for the insults.
Hey new NT feature request! Blocked user list :P
- TransFatty0
i hate it when some of you NT people have such a narrow point of view, you can only focus on one thing and one thing alone.
i guess sometimes you're actually nerdier than i think you are.these some called random images i post always have a point in the context of the thread. i'm not just posting random shit.
free your mind and your abstract 3D will follow.
petty dorks.
later,
fatty

Be true to what you love. I've been using abstract 3D as a means of experimenting with form, ultimately taking the ideas into architecture. I've been doing this since 1993, long before I even had a computer (yeah, I gots lotsa models of anything form soldered wireframes to plexiglass, to basswood).
Some of us pursue these types of 'random' images with an objective, but sometimes it's just to create and experiment. I hope that people's ideas of this just fade away, and focus on the 'new' trend (tan, minimalist sites?), but it really doesn't matter.
Personally, I get something out of experimenting with light and form, so I will continue to do so as I did before all this nonsensical discussion of trends started.
