Got | Ink?

Well it must be true, pain is addictive. I had my first "ink" done nearly 6 months ago. I've always had a fascination with dragons, and after looking through a ton of Flash finally decided on this guy. I really liked the colors and he reminds me of one of my dogs when they are begging.

(The pic was taken some time ago, before it was fully healed)


Now I want a second one. My problem is I am having issues trying to come up with something I like and can live with for the rest of my life.

I would love to go with something custom, but I can't draw to save my life.

Many years ago, I always used the username "The Demon", so I have always been felt a connection to the BSD mascot. I'm tempted to go with that or the Linux penquin "Tux", but again that's not all that orginal.

Anyone have any suggestions? I'm basically a geek, and love anything sci-fi or fantasy related.

Even if you don't have any suggestions, why not post your tats in this thread.

I guess my suggestion is to not get a tatoo of a kid giving me the finger, with the words "Hotlinking isn't cool"

Arg...Guess I need to fix that huh?

EDIT: Should be fixed now. Sorry about that, I guess I had my own security a little too tight.

comission a tattoo artist to design your next one. mine charges $20 if you agree to let her do the work. you have to pay a lot more if you want the artwork without the tattoo.

Is anyone having issues seeing the picture I posted? I can't see it here from work.

Anyway, Looks like I am going to have to find a new artist, since the guy that did mine doesn't seem to work at the same place anymore. Neither does the artist that did my wife's piece.

I'll be getting my third soon. I have my fraternity letters on ym leg (yeah, cliched, but mine was actually really important in terms of grades, etc.), a chinese saying on my other leg, and I want another on my calf. If pants cover it, I'm all about tattooing it

I have 3, a rose on my ankle, 3 daisies with bugs for my kids on my lower back, and a butterfly flying away to represent my mom. I am looking for an angel for my shoulder blade, then I will be done.
