What do you mean "you can't get the paint?"
You'll have to buy a 'primer' paint to use over that wall first before the regular paint color you've chosen.
Go to a Sherwin Wiliams, Glidden, etc. and tell them it's an acryllic you're painting over so they can suggest the primer to cover it.
Once that's done, you'll be able to paint it with a regular latex, semi-gloss, semi, of flat of your choisce. A semi has a low sheen and pretty with low lamp light at night.

put pictures, drawings poetry, writing, posters on your wall. i covered a wall where my paint got messed up with my own drawings and posters from a movie, it worked great

scratch it off or tape pictures all over the wall

well, there are several things you can do.
you can paint the WHOLE room a new color, to just start fresh.
you can also paint some walls one color, and keep the old walls the same color. this only looks good if you ask an expert for a color scheme (palette) that looks good together or else it just looks like a mess.
you can also hire a professional painter, or someone who paints big murals/pictures to paint a huge painting over your graffiti. i'm not sure how much these cost, check the yellowbook or your local listings under painters, painting, murals, etc.
try wallpaper. ive never used it before, so ask an expert for help.
you can make a collage of posters/pictures of your interests over it.
before you do something new, make sure it is something that you will like in the future and ask people at the home improvement store. ive made this mistake before by painting my walls magenta! haha
good luck!
