I quite like pentagrams. Not for any symbolic reason, they just look nice. But the point of graffiti is to put across a message, and pentagrams don't do that very well. Especially if it's next to Buddah and the anarchism sign.

I have a DIY-ish question. I made a Khanuca avatar, but it's .bmp and the site won't accept it. It's 70x70 pixel and less than 19kb. Any ideas?

SantaDuJuan 11-27-2005 12:30 PM

It'd be cool if I wrote "Anarchy is Political Nirvana" and then but the Buddha right beside it.

[QUOTE=Anarcho Poser]Convert it to jpg?[/QUOTE]

Apart from changing the filename to .jpg how does one do that?

ThisUserIsAPipebomb 11-27-2005 12:51 PM

Open it in any program you view pictures in and click save as, and at the bottom just change the save as- .bmp to save as- .jpg

coheneran 11-27-2005 12:53 PM

I don't know why I didn't remember that. Thank you.

what kind of fabric should I use for a back patch? I was thinking of just putting the dessign on a t shirt and cutting it out to use as a patch, is that a good idea?

That's probably not the best idea but if you do that, make sure you sew it up nicely.

Yeah... Something canvas-like is what you should use.

RudeBoyStompin 11-27-2005 01:25 PM

One of my friends made a back patch from black canvas. He got a ton of it for really cheap but I forget where.

(r)evolution 11-27-2005 01:26 PM

black canvas.. okay thanks guys

T-shirt I made

I got the stencil off stencilpunx, but when I printed it off it was too small. So I got out a ruler and doubled all the dimensions.

Anarcho Poser 11-27-2005 07:46 PM

Nice job.

Vietnow 11-27-2005 08:22 PM

does anyone know a site that explains to you how to do those nice big multi-colour sprays? The Free handed ones? I'd like to do some on day

one of my friends did one like that only a little different. Smaller dimensions and different font.

thanx man. they took a while to make, i had to sew the tongues to the shoes. that was bloody annoying. high tops are very thick. the zippers were easy though, just needed some dental floss and my lighter.

This might sound like a strange question but i don't suppose you know a good place to pick up studs for a jacket? I was knocking around Camden last week and couldn't find any anywhere :(

/exposes himself to gay jokes

Scabies 11-28-2005 09:16 AM

i coldnt think of a good enough joke so just go to black rose (the mega goth shop) in the stables. its near the food court right next to that rockabilly shop ( dragstrip i think)

Drop The Baby 11-28-2005 09:19 AM

I think i walked straight past that place because i couldn't bring myself to walk into a place like that. If i go to the Dead Pets tomorrow i'll check it out, cheers
