Could get something computer related.. If you don’t like that idea, then just find something you like.. Trying to add meaning to a tattoo kind of ruins any relation the two have together, unless there is an image that solely represents something meaningful in your life.
A lot of people will say that each tattoo should have meaning, or a cool story behind it, but there shouldn’t be any obligations to getting one done simply because you like the image.
Do some research and find out what you like, there are many styles of tattoos; traditional, japanese, realistic, etc..
Hope I helped a little

Most important thing in my eyes was finding the best possible artist for my tastes. You seem like you haven’t rushed things which is good. I researched artists for like 6 months to a year before taking the plunge.
Where are you located?
Black and Grey or colour?
Where on your body do you want it?
Size?
Budget?
loads to think about.

I’m located in Denver, CO, I want it on my left upper arm, small tattoo too start out, and I definitely want color. 🙂 I’m thinking since I don’t want it too big for the first 1 (1 session) that it wouldn’t be too much money.
In my opinion…………you have to know what you want, thru and thru to the bone you need to know it is the right tattoo, they last forever and can cause decades of happiness or decades of regret, search some of the internet web galleries, I am sure something will strike you, once you get an idea in your head, go see an artist and let them design that thought into a tattoo, they are the creators
Thanks all! I’ve really been looking around and saving pictures to a folder of the ones I really like and to help come up with something of my own. As everyone said, I am not trying to rush anything, especially when it comes to a tattoo that will last forever. I understand that this truly isn’t like picking something up at the store that you can return later if you don’t like, so I am taking my time until I feel right about what I have picked.
For me, the first place to start is to just decide what KIND of tattoos you like and don’t like. Once you’ve narrowed that down, your own internal search mechanism becomes more focused and you find it easier to find things that you like. Once you’ve gotten a good grasp of what you like, you can start researching artists that specialize in that, and looking through their portfolios for truly awe-inspiring tattoos. THOSE should be the foundation on which you base your decision on what to get. Screw the meaning, unless you find the meaning to be particularly necessary. Although most of my future tattoos are based on some (somewhat) deeper meaning, others I want to get for the imagery alone 🙂
