"Any customer can have a car painted any colour that he wants so long as it is black."-Henry Ford

You get what i'm saying curse? wink

Herobane gets the same title as me? Oh that's boring. How typically uncreative.

Poor you, all our creative energy was spent working in the capitalists blood mines.

No kidding. I mean look at your in-post signature. It's just your name and a Hammer & Sickle. About as creative as a Jane Austen book.

you're one to talk, Curse. Forced to be happy with black like that...

how can symbolism be creative? Symbols are the opposite of creativiness, because if they were creative they wouldn't be considered symbols

That doesn't make any sense at all. Symbols are not exclusive of creativity. A symbol can be creative or bland. That's not relevant at all.

A symbol represents something, therefore it is not creative. But thats not to say a symbol for something cannot be creative.

I disagree. A symbol is a work of creativity because the maker has to find a decent representation in an appropriate medium for an appropriate audience to get the message across clearly. I'm not sure why it is suddenly divested of creativity, especially since most symbols aren't direct photocopies of something, but are a partial, distorted form that highlights necessary features or just to make it aesthetically pleasing or simply easy to produce.
