    mine is as much basic cursive as the others are basic blockletters (i learned that even before cursive) or just random handwriting with arrows and stars. and for me its about handstyle and not just the standard stereotype graffiti taggstyle. handstyle for me is about flow, solid letters and stuff like that. you know the writer FAUST? you probably would call his stuff cursive too... but whatever i had a lot of different more "standard" styles but i liked this one the most and it happened to be connected so you could call it cursive...

    looks nothing like simple script, dont forget this is a "handstyle" battle, i dont think writing cursive has anything to do with style, not hating i just would like to see your "influence" on the word,

    yeah but man if your usin that as your handstyle entry than my girlfriend would burn you
    i think cursives good to see on walls because its something nice and different from what you usually see graffiti wise, not because its something especially amazing to do

    also spare gets the vote, likin that y

    in my oppinion there is definitely a difference between what i did and what any girl would produce to make something look "pretty" in her yearbook and really good cursive calligraphy is nothing easy just because everyone learns a cursive writing style in school which only has the purpose to be "readable". even if somebody has a nice handwriting it doesn't mean that he has any clue about calligraphy or letterstructures in general and is able to switch his style and deform or even just stretch the letters and still keeping his nice handwriting. for me its about perfection of angles, spaces ,proportions, flow and the overall control of the letters in any size or form i want. and i mean im not saying im anywhere near perfection but i don't think your girlfriend has any clue about these things because she uses her writing just as a tool and not as a form of art or selfexpression. so yeah i think what i did is cursive but definitely with a "tagg-touch" to it with the sharp edges and the B is definitely Graffiti.
    and im not pissed or anything i just think everyone should be open minded and not just dismiss stuff thats not typical graffiti just because they dont see the beauty of it. im just obsessed with letters in any form or style and i think thats what WRITING is all about ......

    have a nice weekend
