    I can't say this for graffiti because i'm still toy as shit. However, I do a lot of other illustration and sketching and I find that any time you hit a creative wall/slump, it's best to change your style/inspiration. Try adapting a new style for yourself, start over from scratch if you have to (this can be fun sometimes anyways, can't it? the feeling of starting something fresh)

    If you find searching a new style isn't working, maybe you need to change your alias? Could be you're just sturggling coming up with more ideas for it because you've used your creative capacity up on that one.

    If neither of these work I don't know what to tell you, maybe you're just losing interest?

    drugs, bitches, and more drugs. Id say drugs and exploring are the most inspirational things. If its a style slump where you cant think of anything new, go to some local all city spots(if you got any) and look around. Watch graffiti movies, art movies, fucked up and psychedelic movies. Stop thinking about the slump and start getting over it. Do some Drugs.

    Get yourself some shrooms grab a good lookin ho, and go down to the dopest spot you know and relax, let your mind be blown and if you got bars you get your dick blown too. realize different life, then hit the sketchbook and draw some shit up, if you aint likin the shit you draw take your anger out on it and then move on

    ....do drugs

    Rewatching graff movies have definitely helped me figure out different styles and got me over shit. I don't think I've ever had writer's block, I just do some random new shit without thinking, and work around it.
    Exploring and biking are fun as fuck, and I'm sure drugs do help haha

    I dunno where the hell he's at, but I thought that shit was mad funny when I saw it. I guess dude is up so much that someone flicked it. Or he's on tumblr somewhere.
    It was the I and the N that made me think it was him.

    And Phil, where the fuck you been at?

    I'm sure they do, unless you block your shit and make it private, but still. I don't do it at all, or have any kind of connection to graffiti on my facebook. People who make facebooks specifically for their graff are stupid too, it can link back to your IP address, and blah blah blah.
    I mean, you'd have to wreck a lot of shit to get that far, but I wouldn't risk something as stupid as that for not even getting up.

    its kind of like connecting to the internet through another computer thats in between you and the internet so your internet activity's appear to be coming from the proxy server and not your home computer.

    how do you make a proxy server like that? wouldn't it show up as your ip if its in your house?

    Proxies make everything go a lot slower, so I don't really see the point in it.
    + Tor is amazing for it though.
