^^^^i agree with him....why not make somehting everybody can see and read off the highway rather then a bunch of confusing lines. 

 

because some of us paint for ourselves

[/b]

WHY WOULD YOU RISK YOUR ASS TO PAINT SOME BULLSHIT ON THE SIDE OF A HIGHWAY (WERE EVERYONE IS GONNA SEE IT AND POSIBLY SEE YOU DOING IT) IF NOBODY IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO READ IT (THUS YOU GET NO REP FOR DOING IT)????

 

IF YOUR ONLY PAINTING FOR YOURSELF THEN WOULDNT YOU DO IT WERE NOBODY WOULD SEE IT? THUS ELIMINATING THE LEAGAL RISKS??? :confused: :confused:

ahh.."real graf" is what it is, depending on where you're at..

 

philly has a different mentality than the rest of the world...

 

some writers try to develop their style...so even if you can't read the shit..you know who it is...but straight letters are fundamental to any writer who is halfway decent...

 

i don't even know what you're arguing about...but it seems stupid..haha

1.) you can be recognized by your style (if u have one)

 

2.) most writers can read most graffiti...fuck the public..half the time i dont even want faggets to be able to read it.

APPLES AND ORENGES. EVERYBODY GOT THEIR PREFERENCES. I WAS JUST TRYING TO SAY THAT I LIKE LEDGIBLE GRAFF BETTER. TO ME IT MAKES MORE SENSE. LIKE THE ONLY NAMES FROM MY CITY THAT I REMEMBER SEEING UP AS A KID WERE THE ONES YOU COULD READ AND THOSE WERE THE HEADS THAT I WANTED TO MEET WHEN I ACTUALLY GOT INTO THIS SHIT. ALL THE OTHER SHIT WAS JUST LIKE "WOW THATS COOL" BUT I HAD NO IDEA WHO IT WAS SO THEY NEVER REALLY STOOD OUT TO ME.

 

I WASN'T REALLY TRYING TO DISS HEADS THAT ROCK WILDSTYLES OR NOTHING. DON'T GET IT TWISTED.

IN MY OPINION

 

straight letters show a writers skill more than a 500 can production

beacuse thats just what they are straight letters... theres no bullshit all over the place taking away from the actual letter structure.

i'd rather see a 2 colour straight by grey, amaze, castro (van city)

rime, setup, hot head, or countless others before a fucking piece these days...

 

fuck i hate new pieces.......

 

P.S opinions are like assholes.......

Some of y'all might've seen these a couple of times already. I don't have a computer anymore so this is all I can get off my photobucket host. Yadda Blahba Blah. More later...
