I guess this is tired and hackneyed, and speaking as a
tat-less guy, but I'd only say that a Tat should be
something personal, not some vague tribal squiggle or the
Hebrew spelling of "kumqwat". If you don't know what to
have, I'd say don't have anything. A friend of mine once
picked what he thought was a rad design out of a tat shop.
later turned out to be the logo of some Surf wear company.
Dreadful business.

Do NOT get a tribal tattoo, i can't think of anything more
dated!!! Getting a tribal is like getting the whole
backstreet boys catalogue of albums! get something your own,
something original!

here's some tips:
1) nothing written, anything written that's cool today might
be NOT next year already! even your name ( there might come
a time where you have to change your name!!!

2) nothing trendy (tribal 5 years ago) what's trendy now is
not tomorrow!!!

3) get something that means something to YOU! not something
that everybody can understand!!!!

all of my tattoos have been painted, designed by myself
which means that they are an original which means NO ONE
else has them!

before you get a tattoo think about what ever your getting
for at least a year!

Finally think think think thinkthink think think, before you
do!

everyone has a tattoo nowadays so the coolest thing is
almost not to get a tattoo unless you follow the tips above!

also, think about WHERE you get the tattoo, meaning what are
you going to be when you grow up! don't get a tatto
somewhere everybody can see like your forehead or your
hands!

even though you THINK that you're going to be a rockstar
that doesn't have to work a day of his/her life! so get a
tattoo that doesn't show if you're wearing a t-shirt! then
you might have a chance of getting a job even though you
have a tattoo that says heil hitler or suck my cock on your
body!

i agreed with nurse until that last post - shut up, you...

don't get something impersonal off the wall - get something
that means something to you. tribal tattoos were a fad from
ten years ago and i wouldn't recommend that. also don't get
any emo tattoos - stars and birds and stupid shit like that.
everyfuckingbody has those and they all look stupid.

i'd say you should just draw a picture of lily barking,
"THAD ALLEN SMOYER!" on your arm with a sharpie and pretend
it's a tattoo. it will totally trick your dog.

tribals tattoos are the most ugly and impersonal things you
can get.
it's just to look "cool". do yourself a favour and save your
money and spend it on your wife :)
or just pick something that has a real meaning for you.

i don't see what the big deal is with people 'needing' some
personal 'meaning' to a tattoo. to each their own. what if
you want to get something that doesn't mean anything in
particular? does that make you less of a person? no, i dont
think so.

i have two tattoos, and neither of them mean anything in
particular, but they are pretty timeless to me (ie. not
having any particular reference to a band or person or
logo). and yes, one of them is chinese characters, and yes
ive gotten them confirmed and yes i am chinese and yes i am
a nihilist.

so i dont have any personal attachments to my tattoos - they
are just designs that went onto my skin at the time that i
decided to have them inked. nothing more, nothing less.

also, recycle:

one thing you can try doing is create your own tribal
design. just do something random yet simple (for the
tattooist to design, so it looks clean on your skin and not
fucked up), and make a couple of variations of it. if in
doubt and worried about perfect curves/lines, use something
like adobe illustrator to get the vector graphic precision.

when you create something on your own, you may feel a little
more 'unique' in the sense that there would be very few
people with the same design that you thought up.

also, create or find something that can be expanded or
changed very easily (assuming you want to expand on the
design in the future, or may want to change this one
slightly). for instance, you could make something that has a
couple of wandering swirls, and you can always add to those
swirls later - or you can create something in a
box/rectangle (which mine is in), where you can add other
boxes or shapes around it, etc.

maybe avoid the 'centrality' designs, b/c that usually ends
up being too restrictive. do something uneven, maybe leaning
more towards the right or left, or whatever.

chav = white trash

...but hey, I just don´t understand things like tattos,
piercing and stuff. It´s an interesting phenomen, though -
where I live it´s almost always the same kind of troubled
aggressive souls who has it. Always practical with
informative signs.

exactly... a tattoo is a tattoo, arrt underr yourr skin, it
doesn't need a big perrsonal meaning. you can get as borred
with something that has meaning as you can with something
that has no meaning but looks fantastic.
