Hi there 🙂 Care to share a little about yourself?

I just spent the last 2 hours reading this entire thread.

EPIC

Great questions, I’m curious to know the answers.

I don’t have any tattoos that took multiple hours, and I know its not the same, but when I go have my hair done and it take 2+ hours, I always feel like I’m obligated to talk to the hairdresser the whole time, which feels like work in itself. I never have anything to talk about and it stresses me…[Read more]

You can either upload them into your album – click the link under your screen name, where it says “View Imnotmagical’s Tattoo Album” – or upload the photos to a photo hosting site such as Photobucket, and then post the IMG link into the post here.

Maybe a little more info… like where are you planning on putting the design? Are you looking for color or black/gray? What style dragon (you said not chinese, but what about fantasy/gothic/realistic/etc)?

Good luck, hope you find what you’re looking for 🙂

Whew! I don’t know if that makes me feel better or worse…lol. Sounds really painful… yikes 😮

Neat site though, thanks for the link 🙂

hehe =P

Now to get up the courage to actually make the appointment. That black linework’s gonna hurt like a bitch =/

The firehat tattoo was in the realism episode which was the new episode this past Tuesday. Maybe they’ll repeat the episode before next week’s new one.

Thanks kc 🙂

Now that I think about it, the whole tramp stamp thing is so stupid, but I’m I asked the experts 🙂

Kitty softball team LOL! My kinda girl 🙂

I CANNOT STAND THAT ASSHOLE OLIVER PECK WITH HIS FUCKING TOOTHPICK 24/7. the dude just seems like such a douchebag sucking on a toothpick in every fucking scene.

Is it a toothpick? I thought it was a sucker or something lol…. either way, yeah, it bugged me too.

Thanks guys =)

I guess the stigma goes hand-in-hand with the ignorant public, just like with a lot of other things in life.

I appreciate the replies =)

Wow that would be so cool to know they guys that are on that show! I’d definitely root for the ones if I had work by them.

Sorry to hear that 🙁 Danes don’t live long enough anyway, let alone when they have a problem like that. Poor guy 🙁

Thanks girls *hugs* Great to see you again too, MsMercury!!

I got another paw print, just above my first one, so its like a cat walking 🙂 but haven’t taken any pics of it yet. I’ll post em when I get em though 🙂

If that triangle is it, personally I’d disagree that it makes for a good tramp stamp. For me, low and wide tattoos go well in that place, not something thin.

I’m going for the same sort of triangular shape as something like this:

Personally I don’t really like huge wide ones like this: (pulled it randomly off google)

I just made a thread about the taboo of lower back (tramp stamp) tattoos, and then I saw this thread. Very much the same thing!

I’m a female and I had my tongue pierced about 12 years ago (was about 20 at the time), and I didn’t even think about the taboo associated with it. I did it on a whim after I broke up with my boyfriend at time – which in…[Read more]

I saw this was on the other night – I caught the first episode, and they ran them all in order leading up to the new episode at 10pm. I like it so far, since I’m a tattoo newb and its really interesting to learn more about tattooing in the process of watching the show. I loved the last episode with the realism tattoos.

Not sure who I’m rooting…[Read more]
