So, due to laws cracking down etc. show us some graffiti. The legal pieces..or say it's legal..same thing. Either way. Here's mine:

That one was my fav. My parents let me do this to the side of our shed because  they didn't want me going off and doing it illegally. Not that that stops me...

(not to turn this thread conversational, but seeing as no one else is adding anything )

I hate the people that are all 'keep the city clean' when the construction workers spray paint everywhere with those day glow paints, and never clean it up. It looks worse than anything one of our artists can do.
Example 1:
Example 2:

 The abandoned building idea is a great one, but city officials say that it would 'encourage graffiti on public property'. I would think that if we had a place to do it, than we wouldn't have to do it on the trains and/or buildings. Though the adrenaline rush is slightly lower. If you are doing it for the art, than that part doesn't really matter.

Boro_Bandito:
There was a wall near one of the schools I used to go to in Texas that was open for anyone to add their contribution to the art world upon, be it with spray paint or anything else they could put on that wall. The catch was that you really needed to not mind it being quickly painted over with by something else. It made for an often interesting and ever-changing mural, when people bothered themselves to do it.

And there really wasn't much of a problem with illegal graffiti in my hometown, though there are exceptions and gangs will be gangs I suppose. Little tykes.

Runs_With_Scissors:
I think there was research done that proved that most illegal graffiti was done by artists, not gangs.  I forgot where it took place though...and it obviously excludes areas, like parts of new york.
