Acid tagging sounds interesting, where's that last image from hundredmillion? The one that looks like a totally graf covered estate?

Queens (en route from Flushing to Times Square), New York.

Address: 5 Pointz, Jackson Avenue at Crane Street and Davis Street, the whole block, Long Island City, NY 11101

"'5 Pointz, the Institute of Higher Burnin'. Not a museum or gallery, 5 Pointz is a living collage of graffiti art covering a converted warehouse full of artist studios. The art of famous and novice graffiti artists covers the building's facade, all done with the encouragement of the building's owner. It's a well-known sight from the elevated 7 subway, which runs behind 5 Pointz. "

Never got a picture of it (something I will regret 'til the day I die), but someone once painted "G.G. ALLIN IS FUCKIN AMAZING" in 4ft tall letters on the side of my local community centre...

Why does the London 2012 look like some "80s retro" design on a £9.99 t-shirt from Topshop?
Should have got Peter Saville in for some stylish classical typeface action...
 
80s in this context would be a stupid animal character. This one grows on you and is possibly aimed at an Asian TV audience - I don't know, it resembles a pictogram.

Here's the Beijing one

That running figure can also been seen as the character 'Jing' which translates as 'capital'.
