I think when you or anyone self promotes themselves, it's like they are demanding respect. Actions speak louder than, well pictures on a graffiti forum. You shouldn't feel like you have anything to prove to anyone on here. Keeping doing what ya'll do and the respect will come aslong as you stay humble about it. I don't mind the self promo, but try mixing it up a bit with some other SD painters!
But what do I know, I just got the internet like last week.
