    If I was to have a moment of courage, I'd do this:

    To all you lovely, brave, fantastic people, I applaud your creativity. I think tattoos are an awesome way of expressing yourself and a way to remind you of moments in your life. When my grandmother died I almost got a peach rose on my shoulder in memory of her (it was her favorite flower), but I weenied out. I think the above picture is more "me" though...

    I have Russia on the back of my left shoulder. I love the idea of all the continents as well.

    My major in school was Geography, part of every job I've ever had has had something do with making maps. I even thought it would be cool to keep going back after visiting places and getting that piece colored in. In my wildest dreams of course!

    I actually saw that on a picture, and it was on black girls *kitten*

    I have two I will try and get a picture of the second later not in a good spot for self shots.

    I know several people with finger tattoo's. They aren't comfortable but as long as you can withstand a reasonable amount of pain you should be fine. I only hesitate with hand tattoo's because they're hard to hide - though I wanted to get a Green Lantern ring done on my middle finger.

    This is my first and I plan on getting much more, the flash made it look blotchy for some reason =(

    That's one of the most vibrant I've ever seen. Is it new?? The ink fades, right?

    Hahaha, well maybe a first tattoo on a different body part could give you a pretty good example. But take an unwound paperclip and poke yourself with it a couple times to see if it's worth some body art ;)

    Ink does fade, typically speaking you want to get a tat retouched every year or so if there's a lot of color, but I know I've gone about five years on mine and it's not too bad.

    Anyone feel like sharing some that they're considering or have planned?

    Actually I have one of my Flag (St. Lucia) and around it I want to put my Mum, Dad, older sister and older brother's name or intials around it. They are all deceased and that's my tribute to them.

    For those of you who don't know, Steampunk is amazing artistry & creativity. Look it up. There are even several Facebook sites.

    Love that! I was thinking of a Russian flag (where my family is from..including me).

    Ooh, maybe I could get a German flag, I hadn't considered it before... great, add that to the pile! Haha!

    My BFF and I want to get matching tattoos for my favorite band, Fair To Midland. Their last album was called Arrows And Anchors and we want to get that on our legs.

    I also want to get a gray fox with two fox prints on my back.

    The one I want next is the lyric "Are birds of a feather that clever?" being written in fancy writing (haven't decided on font) by a quill, with the tip of the quill exploding out into an unkindness of ravens that are done with this really cool steampunk pattern I found from this amazing artist (have her permission of course). I'd like all that to be on my side/ribs

    Suuuuper excited.

    Veggie, I love the peacock on the feet! Is the dragon on the inside or outside of leg?

    Hi there -

    Thanks! :)

    The dragon is on my (outside) thigh.

    My reward for when I hit goal is going to be big piece incorporating part of my upper back and shoulder. Not sure what, yet, but probably butterflies. Or stars. Or a tree. Can't wait!
