The Longevity of Orbs

a roundabout question

from WinCustomize Forums
Has anyone else noticed the predominant trend of wallpapers as of late?
Of the last 25 walls submitted, 13 of them are "orb" related or have a focal point of something round.
Not that they are bad walls.. on the contrary, most of them are quite nice.
I just bring it up because the other geometrical shapes are getting angry and are threatening to pack up their things
and go elsewhere unless they receive their fair share of the limelight!

Native Americans traded land for round shiny things. I guess people like em.

It's a primal thing. Something to do with everything in the universe being round. Oh, and eggs have alot to do with also.

Wee little thingies in the middle leave space for icons and stuff around the edges so they kinda work better on average as walls....

Jafo makes a mental note to cull every second one so no-one complains....

To Orb or Not To Orb, That is the question. Is this this time, mayhap is this the future, or shall we let it be?

....It must be somekind of primal need
....Or it could be a trend
....Or maybe it's one of the most common natural shapes
....Or you just can't resist
....Or....oh just go create
