I agree with Mylene, and I really wouldn’t be too worried about it.
It has been said by many before, plugins should never be looked at as the main focus of your composition, just a way to improve it; Use them as you would use your sound track, then again, again I’ve seen sound tracks with white screens…
I see many many people just use 3d stroke (For eg.), without any planning, and then just build around it hoping that better things with come with it. And all we usually end up seing is… a good commercial spot for trapcode.
I know this is starting to look like an oversused argument too, so I’ll stop here 😉
