Put a Banksy on your Mac

Banksy is an urban artist who graffitis buildings and structures, mainly in the UK. Most of his graffiti art has a social commentary aspect to it and his artwork has become both sought after and valuable. For those of you who are fans of his work, The Custom Vinyl Shop now offers a selection of Banksy vinyl decals to put on your MacBook, which will either show your appreciation for art or make you look like a desperate urban hipster.

I once lived in a flat in London that had a Banksy graffitied onto its outside wall. From time to time it crossed my mind to go out in the middle of the night with a chisel and jackhammer and remove the portion of the flat's wall the Banksy was on and put it up on eBay but, alas, I figured I'd probably just get caught (and a few weeks later the owner of the house had covered the artwork in plexiglass). Oh well, I still might not be able to have an original, but now at least I can put a Banksy on my MacBook.

These are cool, but I'd rather have banksy do a one-off original on my MBP. I may have to update my Iron Man decal, however.

I've got a large Banksy on my MBP, the little girl reaching for the red heart balloon, with the words "there is always hope"

also on top of that, in a rather large font: #WINNING

yes, I am an ironic hipster.

A couple of guys did exactly that, then they turned down an offer of £240.000 to sell it....
MADNESS.....

Wow, now you can be even more of a hipster. By the way, I am sure Banksy hates this as it goes against pretty much everything his work stands for.

I really want the 'girl hugging bomb' one, but it's bound to attract the attention of some uniformed **** who decides to not let me on a plane with it.

No he doesn't make a cut. Lots of people sell these on Etsy.com and other such sites. I have had one on mine since the new macbook pros came out.

so, does banksy make a cut from each sale, or what? i can't afford to buy his prints, but if it would benefit him, i'd be quite happy to buy one of these.
