Find it increasingly harder to be original? - GoFuckYourself.com

Everything's been done. It's a chore and the largest part of building a site is to purposely not look like everyone else it seems.

When I first started in this biz I found it easy to build sites, galleries and TGPs. Now I find that I start doing something and I have to second guess myself "nope, this looks too much like so-and-so"

YARGH!

That's why I look to non-adult sites, and print media for ideas. I also try hiring designers with different backgrounds than my own, for a fresh/new perspective.
Maybe this would help you too.
