what do you guys think of last names for tattoo’s? i was thinking of getting my last name down my right side, my left has a wetlands tribal graphic already, just trying to get some opinions going

My feelings on names for tattoos vary, depending on how it’s done and where it’s put. I have some name tattoos planned but they…[Read more]

Is that supposed to be a steak behind the fanbelt?

Speak for your self. The pain was DEFINITELY a problem for me.

Welcome to the forums Jenn. It’s a hell of an addiction you’ve found yourself, but we’re a great support group!

(Supporting of succumbing to the addiction, that is ;))

Welcome to the forums Tyler.

I know an Icelandic bartender who calls himself Mango, too 🙂

did you take those or are they from the news?

I wish! I still haven’t had the chance to go up there and shoot some pics. They’re just assorted news photos.

my friend says if you chew on uncooked cauliflower and stick peanut butter up your nose it makes the pain go away have you guys heard about this?

Really? I heard it was hot mustard, and supposed to go up the a$$. It’s, like, you know… those pain medication ass pills you get from the doctor, only works much better and much faster!

I am going to see Amon Amarth next Sunday

Very cool band, that.

We’re still good here. It’s beginning to hurt livestock and harvest though.

Here are some pics.

The bottom two are both in color, taken with the same camera in about the same place. The first is taken day before yesterday, the latter is taken yesterday. :S

Anime Geisha? Hmm…. interesting concept. I like it.

Do you get your clothes to symbolize something? I don’t think so.

First of all, most people choose their clothing because it reflects something about themselves. In that way, the clothing symbolizes the person.

But think of this… if you were going to choose a piece of clothing that you would wear every day for the rest of…[Read more]

Some people dry-heal their tattoos (although for the life of me I can’t imagine what for). Maybe you can just not apply any lotion on it until your Goo arrives? I’m not saying you should, but it’s a thought.

To add to what Gsouder says, google can be a bother when looking for reference pictures, but it can also be absolute joy. I would, however, recommend that you spend hours (days even) on http://www.deviantart.com/ searching for things that contain your keywords. You’ll find crap and you’ll find spectacular art. In the end you will probably find…[Read more]

Well, I’d hope that the tattoo would look less rubbery, but it could make for a cool tat. You’d need to make it into a half-sleeve (or rather, most of a half-sleeve… the outside of the arm from shoulder mostly to the elbow) to really get some detail in there.

I’m wondering if there is numbing cream in the market that you can recommend.. I’m going to have my first tattoo at my lower back and some of my friends told me it really hurt. i just want the tattoo not the pain!:(

Get a spray-on then. That doesn’t hurt one bit!

Numbing creams take 1-2 hours to work (you can’t be…[Read more]

A close friend of mine decided to have a new tattoo and she found 2 pictures of the tattoo she wants

Do you mean that she wants that exact same entire sleeve? It’s a well done Anime sleeve, but why would anyone want the exact same tattoo as someone else has? IMO, she should get her very own Anime sleeve, with Anime things…[Read more]

Is that a bad thing then? Personally I don’t see why being called a biker is automatically a negative thing.

I use Neutral. It is, as the name implies, completely neutral. No colors, no scents, no added stuff. Because of this, it’s good for people with eczema and other assorted skin conditions. And it’s even a good soap.
