    I can't figure out how to get my picture to post in here! But I have an image of my tattoo in my profile pictures. And that picture is almost how I want my body to look again...

    hope this worked!

    can you read the chinese symbols on your back? it reads rabbit - dragon - snake - monkey. the character on your calf reads "lotus" correctly, but has a mistake in the top strokes...

    Here are mine, I have all black/white because I am a big fan of the old school style and I feel color can sometimes take away from the art. I have to keep all of mine hidden since I work for the state and they are very conservative. My next will be a full back piece but I'm not sure when I am going to get it.

    My first tattoo(s):
    0326082153-1.jpg

    Second tattoo. This usually needs a little explanation when people see it. It says "The world owes me nothing, but we owe each other the world." It is song lyrics from an Ani Difranco song (most people don't even know who she is) and the album artwork to the CD:

    Latest tattoo right after it was finished, Deuteronomy 1:17:

    I want to get a tattoo SO bad I just don't know what I want! How did you all decide! It feels like such a HUGE decision to me...it's with you forever! The only thing in my life that means enough to me to represent with a tattoo are my children so I know I want something that has to do with them. Some design or picture with their names in it or something. I'm not creative so I haven't been able to create something on my own.

    I LOVE everyone's tattoos! So cool!

    Damn, the picture quality makes the tattoos look like crap, but I just took these with my iPhone. i swear they look better in real life! :laugh:

    Clover on my outer left calf:

    Orange slice on my inner left calf:
    tattoos004.jpg

    Flowers around my right ankle:
    tattoos003.jpg

    Cross on the back of my left calf:
    tattoos006.jpg

    Glow Worm on the top of my right foot. This was my nephew's favorite toy. He passed away as a baby and was buried with his toy. His Mom and his other aunt have the same tattoo.
    tattoos002.jpg

    A Mother/Daughter symbol that I got on the 4 year anniversary of my Mom passing away. It's just below my neck.
    100_34301.jpg

    Smirky, mischievous face on my right wrist. Extra bonus points for anyone who can guess what this is from:
    tattoos001.jpg

    And I've got one more...one that only a select few get to see. :wink:

    i'd have to find some pics but i have 4.
    sunflower near ankle, my first one when i was 18
    next was my name in Chinese and Chinese zodiac sign at the top of my back
    next was a tramp stamp, haha! it is a tribal thing on the lower back that i actually had done in two parts a year or so apart, does that count as 2? lol
    and finally i got a little star on the inside of my wrist last year when my young cousin died. she loved tattoos too! this one is my favorite as it is so cute!! :tongue:

    I agree with you, I think color can take away and it also generally requires a lot of upkeep.

    Love Ani Difranco c: I saw her at Rothbury Music Festival in 2009, really enjoyed it though I was working so I didn't get to see the whole show. That's a very cool piece.

    Hope this works & the pics aren't giant.

    I have a "tramp stamp" ... its a flower with some swirls out from either side, no color, I don't have any pics of it.

    This one I got for my birthday last year. "Love is patient, love is kind" This one gets lots of stares, I guess placement? IDK. It's nothing fancy or detailed.
    1300887946242.jpg
    1300887970131.jpg

    This one I got this year, I think January..maybe early Feb. The symbol on the left means Mouse (what we call my daughter) and the symbol on the right means Bear (what we call my son)
    1300888033204.jpg

    This is a pic of one of my brothers tattoos - its on the inside of his bicep, I'm getting the same thing, but on my ribcage (or maybe hip, haven't decided yet) for my birthday this year (tomorrow). Well it cut off the second half of "Family" it doesn't just say "fam" lol it reads "Family First"
    477.jpg

    I plan on getting one final one to match one of my DH's. In Japanese characters, it says "Only God can judge me" I'm going to put it down the center of my left calf.

    yes, they're the years my nephews were born...and the people I work for are chinese and they can still read the lotus symbol...so it might just be a little twitch, not that the character is wrong...but impressive that you can read that...can you see the symbols in the water?

    what are you "oh snapping?" or are you just trying to be rude and coming across as immature?

    Most of mine are on my profile. I'm planning on making an appointment for this coming weekend for more ink in celebration of my weight loss so far. I'm going to love the look on my artist's face when he sees me and all the weight I've lost since I was under the gun last time. I haven't quite decided on what I want done but I have a few ideas and still need to decide on placement as well.

    Trying to post the pics, but no clue what I'm doing wrong!

    How original!

    The black-light ink glows, and I had them use the white ink, since it wouldn't show up without the black-light that way

    Thats really cool!

    I know a guy with the black light ink done in skeleton on his hand and arm, he's going to go throughout his whole body.

    Mine's not very original, but I have a treble clef on the inside of my left wrist. One day I might get a bass clef on the inside of the right wrist. Not original, but I still love the idea.

    I want one too, but am scared about the permanency of it. I just watched my 18 year old get his first in January and that made my fear even worse, lol. I would want mine on my ankle, or round there but I struggle with Restless Legg Syndrome, mild now that I no longer take the meds that enduced it. But I worry about not being able to handle the needle, and holding still. My husband files my feet and sometimes I can't handle that, my feet will jerk and what not.

    When I got mine on my foot I almost kicked the guy doing it...I tried to keep my foot still but it was not working!

    I have stars on my wrist, a star design on my foot, moon & star on lower back (tramp stamp LOL it was my 18th bday gift to myself), stars & a heart on my hip and an anchor on my should....I have a quote planned for my next one, and am also saving up for a big one on my arm.

    My son was just telling me he wants to get Family First. I love it. This has been one of the values we raised our kids with. I love the font used in your brothers. And I love the "Love is Patient" one too!

    how are you guys getting your pics on here? I can't cut & paste, even from MS paint. I'm at work so I can't use a hosting site from here... might have to wait til I get home... :ohwell:
