Oh, oops. Here’s a couple other links:

I’m glad to hear you think the color can be achieved. I have never gotten a tattoo, so I wasn’t sure what kind of subtle coloring they could make.

Haha, yeah, I’m an animal lover. I have a couple snakes (as well as cats, dogs, and a parrot), and my favourite animal is the okapi. 🙂 I picked a milk frog because I find them aesthetically pleasing but do not have any personal ties to them, or to frogs in general, so I feel that the design will last through time.

Thanks for the piercing info! I assume it will be many months, if not a year or more, before I can pierce through the tattoo, so I’ll have time to get used to having it on me. I’d really like to get jewelry that resembles the milk frog’s eyes, so I might go for the dermal anchor. I’m no stranger to piercings, and this design is six years in the making so I don’t think I’d have to have it removed in the future. But if so, I’d be willing to go through whatever pain is involved in their removal.

Thanks again for the info. 🙂 I’ll be asking tattoo artists and piercers (lucky me, my friend owns a tattoo parlor) about the more technical details and design ideas, but having information to work with is going to make the whole process a lot easier.
