Not really, its mostly about the art and less about the legibility.

I'm often impressed by what I see rolling by on train cars. A lot of these guys could probably make decent money doing signs and billboards, if they decided to use lettering that the "uninitiated" could decipher.

Here is one of the more legible pieces. Btw, This guy is one of the more prominent "taggers" in Houston. I have seen his stuff everywhere for years.

Reading from 6 feet away (as I generally do), I read this thread title as 'Histrionic Grafitti'. This probably says more about the 10 pints than my eyesight. Nonetheless, it might have made an interesting thread.

Cheers,
Rat.
