I voted for title card,I dont want to go loosing any of the story,although the opening credits are abso fab! I Think the title card is unique,dramatic and spooky which fits the shows theme perfectly,and it lets us get straight back into the story while reminding us what happend last time,please dont change anything about our vampire diaries,but good job on the opening credits!

Title card, we don’t need opening credits. something about the title card that makes it creepier and more dramatic then cuts straight into the action of the show! Can you imagine supernatural with opening credits? no, and it works.

Ditto.

Starry Dawn: Ooh, thank you for that awesome video! I do love a well-done fanmade credit sequence.I chose opening credits, because it’s something I feel very strongly about, heh! With so many shows choosing to go the way of title cards, I feel like opening credits are dying out. What I love about opening credits is the fact that you get something solid to associate the show with, so that no matter what other context you hear a particular song or tune in, you will always remember it as being part and parcel of your show. The songs are fun to sing along to, and even if they’re just set to music, they are always memorable. Plus, they’re about a minute long at most … what’s the harm in having them? (Quote)

I love opening credits. They are awesome. And I do agree with Starry Dawn about shows being associated with something solid as opening credits, with the tune and images. The best ones always leave you remembering them. They are shows with really good opening credits such as the CSI franchise and the NCIS franchise. Granted some shows are better with a title card like 24 and The Good Wife. Although I did like these credits, I'm going with the title card for the Vampire Diaries. I really like it.

I liked the opening credits video but I voted for the title card. I do not want to lose any story because they have to make room for opening credits. If they want opening credits then get rid of some commercials but DON’T get shorten the story!!

I so loved loved loved the credits (Steven R McQueen looks hot-they picked really great shots of him[sigh]) and so I voted for the credits, but I do like the fact that the title card gives us extra story!

Opening credits! They get me in the right mood and if they’re done really well, I get extremely excited just by watching them. E.g. True Blood, Buffy, Dexter etc.

Although I love the Title Credits of Supernatural and Supernatural because they are very unique and well integrated but I usually prefer a good opening with a nice song.

Even though I love, love, love opening credits, the title card just works for shows like Vampire Diaries, Heroes and Supernatural. =)

I voted title card, but I have to say, if the credits are as awesome as these fan-made ones, you would hear NO objections from me if they decided to change over!
