Anybody wanna start a pool? :boing1: Honestly, it's SO easy to keep it from him! Of course, eventually he's going to get too frisky and sneak up on me and find it.

Shesulsa - Um, where *is* that pesky tatoo? :D

Bob - I like the fighting Lum. I'd have chosen electric shocks, but a sword works too. :)

Has anyone ever bought a tat design online and then brought it to like your local artist to have it done? Any issues with that?

I've never purchased a design online, but I brought my own design in and he copied it no problem. Mine was FAR from elaborate, though.

What's really funny is that the parlor has this huge picture window in the front facing the street. The guy's station is right next to that window. He wanted me to pull my pants halfway down and turn my back to the street.

:uhyeah:

I said, "Honey, if my *** weren't as big nor as white as it is, I wouldn't mind, but we don't need to be killing people today. It's large and in charge, but it's also a barge and I ain't flashing the passersby. :moon:

Sooooooooo... I turned to the side and sat on a dental assistant stool. Done in five.

Like the great Mae West said, "When I'm good, I'm great - but when I'm bad, I'm better!"

My first and *last* tattoo (HURTS, man)...anyway, it is a rather large coat of arms which consists of a gold and gray shield with a blue wolf and 8 red crosses on it, and leaves, a knight's helmet and wolf head over it, below it is the family motto in Latin on a banner and below that, the family name in large fancy script.

It is on my lower back and I almost wept with joy when it was over with, LOL, the outline nearly killed me...it is on my lower back. It was done 2 weeks ago Tuesday. I have been wanting to get it done for years but never had the nerve up until then.

Family crest on my upper left arm with the first initials of my 6 sons replacing the motto below. In memory of the two I lost in '95. It represents what was, what is and what will be. I never got another one.

My wife has 3 though, and I'm sure will get more. She loves 'em.

I have contemplated getting a tattoo for quite a while. My sister-in-law and I made a pact that if we ever got a tattoo we'd get our first one together (It's better not to ask about this whole thing.).

That agreement was made like 2 years ago so I thought she'd forgotten about it. But she's decided she wants to get one while she's off from college on Christmas break.

I don't know what I want to get exactly. At the moment, I'm going to allow her to design the tattoo, since she's a goo artist, and get whatever she thinks would look good. (Hey, didn't I say don't ask??)

Still, if I have an idea I can work with that.

My school's symbol is a yin-yang with a phoenix rising from it. It symbolizes the "rising and advancing of the spirit". But it's a very static symbol and I wanted something perhaps a bit more dynamic.

Also, I'm a skinny dude (6'2" and 155 lbs.) so I don't have a lot of canvas space. I think I want to get it on my right shoulder where I can show it off easily or cover it up for work.

So, anything too elaborate wouldn't look good on my sinewy deltoid. I still like the phoenix design though.

I want the design to really mean something, something about me. Therefore the phoenix is appropriate because it represents my ability to rise from the ashes of the past to forge a new destiny of my choosing. (Of course, a nubile nymph sucking a lollipop would work too but that's just wrong.)

So, my purpose here is a request for potential designs. If anyone has any ideas they'd like to throw at me, I'd be most grateful.

Getting a tattoo is a big deal to me, not because of the pain but because I'm making a permanent change to my body. I want it to be right the first time.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be more than glad to listen. If anyone could actually post the visual that would be excellent, since it's all about the visual.

Thanx!

I suppose "MOM" with a heart and an arrow through it is out of the question. :rolleyes:

Um, no, "MOM" won't quite cut it. Eagles and phoenixes are both birds, of course. I don't want a feathered bird, but one of fire in some way. More symbolic.

Being a comic book fan I thought of an emblem type thing on my chest. In that regard my school's symbol would look fine. But I think I'll go with the shoulder.

Any other ideas?
