Ok then, Let me give y'all the full history on how this all started:
Well first off, I was trying to make a more complex gif and I decided to use Caramelldansen to work off of. So I drew up Helena (my OC), made the gif, and posted it on my art thread. A lot of people liked it, and after *a little* encouragement, I started using it as my avatar. Soon after, people began asking where/who made the gif and started asking me to make one for them. I completed around two, for darthmorf and Sodapone as I know them, and their OCs relatively well.
Soon after, ppowersteef ended up making his own (fairly impressive is it not?) and he posted the tutorial a bit later. It's a very simple tutorial, and many people started making their own. I threw in a few tips here and there, made Samrux one too (even though I said I'd be making them anyway) and bam, fad is in place.
So if it isn't me, darthmorf, sodapone, or Samrux (for now), I didn't make it, and I had no real intention to start a fad.
