Tag the Web
This is a project I did for the hip-hop group Atmosphere’s new album: When Life Give You Lemons, You Paint That Shit Gold. It allows users to tag (graffiti) any site on the web. From whitehouse.gov to myspace.com, no site is safe. Make sure you check out the "Certified Gold" section, people inked some pretty sick bombs.

Pretty cool, though it didn't get the MeFi screenshot properly on my work of art.

Atmosphere's real awesome. I submitted a stupid lil ditty on Digg, but i've bookmarked and will come back later when I've got a mouse. (Trackpads are hard to do art with!)

Load times are not great.

Also it would be great if the gallery nav did some ajax or iframe or something so that the music wouldn't start over every time you click next or prev.

Otherwise: cool site!

Love the idea. Hate being forced to listen to music.

I'm not sure if this is possible, but an Undo feature would be great.

There is a clear canvas button. It will give you a clean slate.

Fun. Definitely challenging with a trackpad. Also, load times are pretty slow, but neat application.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I wish there was an iframe so I wouldn't have to stop the music every time. That just sucks.

The rest of it is cool though.
