New YouTube Graffiti Site Lets You Draw All Over Videos

Picture_3

Rakugaki.in is a new Web site (launched a couple days ago) that lets you draw graffiti all over your favorite YouTube videos without the hassle of uploading or editing anything. Here's a test run I did on a series of old school Japanese TV commercials. Problem is, my "rakugaki" (graffiti) kinda sucks. I guess I could have put more time into making sure it fits the characters that wear it, and that it doesn't stay on the screen longer than it's supposed to.

Rakugaki.in is the newest invention of Satoru Yano, the man who created Jimaku.in, which lets you write captions for your YouTube video, and Moza Moza Movie, which lets you use custom-made stamps—or "mozaiku" (which is what the Japanese use to sensor porn)—to bleep out parts you don't want your kids (or your boyfriend) to see.

If any of you try it and come up with something worth sharing, please include the URL in the comments section. (The sites are in Japanese, but you can use your computer's translator to try to make sense out of it. Once you get to the editing screen, it's pretty self-explanatory.)

Actually, here is an old edited one about Hitler...

Just to note what seems to be a mistype: "sensor porn" or "censor porn"?
