About as stupid as people who don't read threads.... OP said opinion based... So guessing he wants an in your own opinion what makes a killer graphic....
Not sure if I'm explaining this right, but my favorite designs have a very complex subject on a minimal background (See Mr. Pollard's opus). I dislike overall complex graphics (see the K2 Press).
I agree. That purple and orange makes them look sick in the new Salomon Freeski. I also love the 4FRNT YLE. I like graphics that pop and kinda stick out, i guess.
