Wow! Thanks to the second news entry on <a href="http://www.hurtyoubad.com">hurtyoubad.com</a> this weekend no less than 10 walls have been added on Europes largest island.

The most obvious one is that overlapping markers are now being grouped for better clearness. Moreover there are tooltips when the mouse is placed over a walls marker.</p> <p><img src="http://blog.legal-walls.net/assets/2008/4/9/legal-walls-before-and-after.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>We hope y’all like it.</p> ema tag:blog.legal-walls.net,2008-04-06:4 2008-04-06T13:46:00Z 2008-04-06T13:54:26Z <p>If you’re on flickr, join our <a href="http://www.flickr.com/groups/legal-graffiti-walls">flickr group</a>!</p> <p>Add your legal graffiti flix (please tag and <a href="http://www.flickr.com/help/screencasts/vol1">geotag</a> them) to the pool.

If you don’t know any locals you’re kind of screwed because the information you can get up-front mostly sucks.</p> <p>That’s why we decided to create a web application facing that problem. No more vague directions, no more outdated information.</p> <p><img src="http://217.150.250.144:8040/assets/2008/4/5/legal-walls-teaser2.jpg" alt="" /></p> <p>We are currently at a very early state (specially in terms of content). So feel free to <a href="http://www.legal-walls.net/walls/new">submit the spots you visited</a>. We need your backing!</p> <p>If you like our idea, please link to us. We could use some publicity and would be glad about any kind of support. Don’t hesitate to tell us what you think or <a href="http://www.legal-walls.net/messages/">contact us</a> to get more info.</p>
