I saw the thread about the Chinese tattoo, and it got me thinking. What are your tattoos, if you have any? If not, and you plan on getting one or more, what are they??? If you have pics, please post
I plan on getting this on my left forearm:
and I want a picture of a payphone on my right forearm in honor of my friend who passed away a few years ago. He had the same tat. I also want to get some version of this vine pattern on my left forearm too, sort of enveloping the first tat:
Then, I want to get a tat of a spider with a cowboy hat and lasso riding a snake...Sounds silly, and it is. But, I'm deathly afraid of both snakes and spiders, so I want something that sort of makes fun of that fear. lol

I want to get my 2 zodiac signs on my shoulder, with a star. also I'd like to have some angel wings close to my elbow on my fore arm, one wing on each side..., a yin yang in my neck, and an ice christal on my wrist..
Nothing big, nothing flashy...

BTW..
I really find that tattoo you wanna place fugly...
Well, it must be me if you want to walk around with a symbol that some people think of as the sign of the devil... and I first even though that that goat was some domon head..
Why don't you put a huge SRF or Silkroad Online somewhere??

It is quite a message
At Icealya: I figure, if people who are christian can get crosses or bibles tattooed and other religions can get their's, I should be able to get mine?

plus, it's a friend's band symbol too hehe
and I just might get a SRF tattoo...TOTALLY nerdy, but who the ..... cares? lol

I have a few piercings, that's all. I had to take a few out because they weren't healing correctly. Prob getting a few more soon.
As far as tattoos, I'm not sure what I want or where to get it. I can guarantee I won't get a lower back tattoo because I plan on children, and most women with lower back tattoos can't get anesthesia <_< I will get a small panda though, not too sure where but it'll be somewhere somewhat hidden. Most of my 18+ friends have little pink/red stars on their collar bones so i'll prob get the same as well.. it's just something that kinda goes along with my circle of friends.
I don't want anything too big I don't think. Not unless there comes a time when it's necessary to tribute to someone special in my life who has passed on. Well see.
"Freiheit" in a nice design will be somewhere nifty. Can't think of a spot yet.

I'd love to get the tats I mentioned before, but there are some tat's that I would strongly say Hell No to...
~ Those tribal tats with (mostly) roses. And especially the ones that or on the lower backs. It's kind of a girl thing, but in my direct surounding of girls I have 10 with the same kind of tat at the same damn spot...
Yes, you could do it on another place, but tribals aren't that orginal anymore...
~ Names of people you have a relation with. What of you would split up, then you'll have that name on your body forever! Yes, you could let it get removed, but still, it'll hurt. You could better do something like, a rose, or some sign that represents both of you and you both take a tat like that if your really want it. Then, when you would breake up, you won't have names on your body, but just a rose that could stand for something totally different.
~ Something huge. It can be nice sometimes, but you can also get a giant Fail. And when you get older, that tat will look pretty f*cked up..

i have a bunch. i don't have pictures of all of them on this computer though, so i will post what i have.
japanese koi, traditional style, left arm. status: 75% complete. needs more coloring and still has the back of the sleeve to complete. size: 9in x 14in
two pictured here: the one on the right shoulder blade is my first one ever, got it about 6 years ago. it's a heraldric lion rampant. size: 4in x 6in. status: complete, may end up being covered up at some point.
the one in the center of my back is a bonzai tree, semi-traditional style. size: 12.5in x 8.5 in. status: complete in and of itself, but it will be encorporated into the back piece i am planning for next year.

I'm not normally a fan of koi fish tattoos. they're "trendy" now and they end up all looking the same. However, I must say, your's is quite nice and different IMO. that is a tattoo that I like
I like the tree too...nice stuff.

Bro, the Pentagram was a pagan symbol that was characterized by the Church during the Renaissance as Devil worshipers, but in reality has to do with The planet Venus Movement accross the sky, which form a perfect Pentagram, and hence Woman's Fertility. Reasons why Church did this, is to get ppl to leave Pagan religion and join Church. Most notable change was celebration of the Sabbath on Saturday's which the Church changed for the Romans (Roman Catholics) to Sunday, because they refused to give up celebrating their SUN GOD, so it was changed to Sunday. A small tidbit. To the new generation you use it as: Satanists use a pentagram with two points up, often inscribed in a double circle, with the head of a goat inside the pentagram. This is referred to as the Sigil of Baphomet. They use it much the same way as the Pythagoreans, as Tartaros means Hell in Christian terminology (the word is used as such in the Bible, referring to the place where the fallen angels are fettered). The Pythagorean Greek letters are most often replaced by the Hebrew letters לויתן forming the name Leviathan. Less esoteric LaVeyan Satanists use it as a sign of rebellion or religious identification, the three downward points symbolising rejection of the holy Trinity.
So There a bit of history for you. Kind of sad for you bro., I would really like for you to refocus, GOD will forgive you, open up your heart, and talk to him call him by his name YHVH (In hebrew) in english = GOD

Don't know what the other guy is offering you, but GOD offers eternal life, the moment you mark your skin with that symbol, you're rejecting him, and he goes "Death Ears", which means you no longer have his blessings until you repent what you've done. Look up repent - strong word bro. Either way, best of luck...I feel I had to tell you this, you seem a bit lost...More Luv is what we need, not more hate!

Hmm Bro. You try to impress with your little history lesson, but before you speak, you should study a bit more. First, CHRISTIANS once used pentagrams as a symbold for the 5 wounds of christ. and it was often seen as a symbol of protection from demons. funny, because witches also used it as a symbol of protection.
Satanists use a pentagram with two points up, often inscribed in a double circle, with the head of a goat inside the pentagram. This is referred to as the Sigil of Baphomet.

Bottom line, the pentagram has been used for MANY reasons, and you have no idea what a satanist believes. so take YOUR god and shove him where the sun don't shine.
EDIT: - the only Luv I know is Jennifer Luv...she's a pornstar, look her up BRO. and if you want me to "love" everyone, you're barking up the wrong tree....christianity teaches you to love thy neighbor and love all...the problem with loving everyone is that it cheapens its meaning and makes you a whore....take that to the bank

Ohyeah, I also want to have a pantagram tatted somewhere...
Anyone has a good idea where??
@Blasjr:
Thanks for the history lesson... I needed that.
Now something for you:
Why do Christians called the hell Tartaros???(Because it's the Latin name of Hades, the Greek god of the underworld!!)
And how would I know??
Because I was thinking about changing my name into something, and I was thinking, because I like Greek Myths so much, I'd change it into some origial Greek God name....
And I came across that stuff.. soo...

Well you think the greek myths are interesting, look into Norsic Mythology its much more of a warrior aspect.

Sorry about the photoshop, it's the only pic i have.
I got those 2 tattoos and one more that's tiny.
I'm planning to get one more soon but I don't really know how soon.
The tattoo I've been dreaming about is a dragon that covers most of my back but I don't think I'll ever get that done
Oh yeah, and I've got 4 piercings, of which I use only two (labret and tongue)
