    sorry but make it even more basic. dont extend the r, and the n is too wide. also youre name is pretty damn long, no offense but you should shorten it.

    that is a rather incorrect statement. Most writers who actually know what there doing will tell you to learn structure first and start simple no matter what. and its for a good reason. Because once you build the solid foundation 1. a certain style thats all your own and dope will come out naturally, or 2. You will have the technical skill and knowledge to explore many different styles and make them look good. Theres an underlying reason for everything, but add on's and extensions cannot really be explained, they have to be gradually developed over a couple years or more. If you havent read the new to graffiti post you really should. its entertaining and a good source of knowledge to start that foundation on.

    Now your right in saying it doesnt matter what other people think. But at the same time do you want to look like a little toy scribbler or have some recognizable flow and flava? When people say go simpler. its because they have all had to do it and seen that it pays off. tags are a lil diff but just dont go over the top or try to hard. other than that stick with bars. you should know what i mean by that if youve done your homework. otherwise do it.

    I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but I just picked up a typography book and have been studying that. Also anything having to do with caligraphy is helpful.

    I'll try.... fill pages and pages and pages. I would suggest a different name too... the word it's self should have a flow of sorts and I can't even begin to even pronounce that.

    okay, tryin to develop a style. first, check out some letters that your usin. then write them. then do it again, and again and again and again and again and again and aain and again and then throw decorations on there. eventually it wont look anything like what you started with

    use the right side of the M, R, or H and underline the word with the letter. then throw arrows on some of the ends. and dont restrict yourself to all caps either. mix it up bro
