Not to bash anyones templates, but I am getting tired of seeing so many templates with the ‘vertical line’ backgrounds. Even though the templates are designed differently, I’ve seen SO many with this background style of different hues . I do think that this style background looks nice, but I have seen it countless times, and It seems like they arent very creative, and I thought creativity was important.

So, just don’t look at them then, ha?
Well, it’s good when you have a lot of free time… for writing that kind of silly topics.
P.S. Do you think that all creativity converge in the background? 
Oh this must be a “best of” list so my vote is for #5.

Nice idea, “best of”. But since my template is featured I can’t give my vote

I think it is in really bad taste to call out specific templates you don’t enjoy on the forum, this has been discussed before.

There’s plenty of room for these templates.

It certainly has been.. thoughts and opinions in that regard are fair game.. Links aren’t 
No worries if anyone didn’t know, that’s just how it is, to be decent to everyone
But like Jeffrey said, there is still room for those, and I guess the reviewers are good enough at sorting the wheat from the chaff by now 
So the links are out, thanks for understanding folks
