Graffiti Art Letters Styles

Can someone tell me what these graffiti terms mean?

This is for my art assignment on graffiti, can you just write me a description for each of the terms or as many as you know?

* Tag.
* Stencil.
* Paste-up's
* Bombing.
* Throw-up.
* Blockbuster Style.
* Wildstyle.
* Softy Letter Style.
* Bubble Style.

Much appreciated. ;D

* Tag. - tagging is a way to do graffiti in the fastest way you can (getting up quick ) it's how every graffiti starts
* Stencil. - stencils are like tagging but not much artist like it because it's cut out a picture and spraying it up everywhere i prefer it better to make funny pictures out of many
* Paste-up's - paste up are pictures you create on a computer and make a glue paste and roll it on a wall (real quick ) real cool if done right
* Bombing. - bombing is going out with a friend or by yourself and just tagging doing throw-ups everywhere on a couple blocks , destroying it like a bomb went of
* Throw-up. - thow ups consist on bubble style letters it's called a throw up because it's quick and most the time not very clean (throwing up) more complicated ones are called straight letters
* Blockbuster Style. - block style i personally don't like much anymore not much people put any style on it it just consists on block shaped letters it used to look cool with different ways to make them now it's kinda plain
* Wildstyle. - wild style has 2 different things it's a style a crew came up with in the 80's and many people do it (alot of graffiti artist hate people that do it because anyone can do it), then the other meaning is to do a piece somewhere no one has done it there before
* Softy Letter Style. softy letter is just a throw up with soft corners from going to fast with the spray can
* Bubble Style. - bubble letters tend to be used inside the throw ups

i hoped it helped
