hey guys. my names ryan, im planning on getting a tattoo soon, but honestly i have no clue what to get. i wear a lot of ed hardy and i find so true the love kills slow quote. but is this unoriginal? i mean yeah its on a lot of the shirts, but do many people have this actually tattoo'd on them? (i also like the quote death or glory, cant decide yet which i like better, any suggestons?) or can anyone make a recomendation for an original tattoo that not many people have, and something thats still cool, or a reccomendation for some designs?
a friend of mine has a tattoo that reads the same backwards as it does front, what exactly is the term for this? also, how can i find a good font for the words i end up choosing for my tat? i went to notepad on my computer but they all suck. is there a website i could go to to find some good ideas or good fonts? thanks! |

i'm not really into word only tattoos, but i think that those would look cool wraped around a heart |

If by many you mean thousands then yes. However tattoos aren't necessarily about who has it and who doesn't. If you really connect to the saying "Love Kills Slowly" and don't think you'll ever regret having that on your body forever, for everyone to read (including your lovers....) then you should get it.
On the other hand, you sound extremely undecisive. And the best advice I can give you is to wait until you are head over heels (yes, in love) with an idea or a design before you have your body permanently altered around it. |

Ambigram. That's what you can read backwards and forwards. This guy's way too pricey, but does pretty cool things with ambigrams:

Oh, that's weird - I just went there when I typed posted that reply, but now it's doing the same to me... strange
The artists on that site is Mark Palmer - you may be able to find some of his stuff if you search |

This post has a douche factor of 10.. You a big LA ink fan too??? Maybe you should get "Trendy" tattooed on you. That'd be sweet... _________________

Why don't you give it a few years and come up with something that you really want. It'll also give you time to figure out whether you really want to have a tattoo on your forever, or whether you just think it's cool at the moment. _________________

Too many people dwell on getting tattoos that they think other people will get a woody about. I guess its that "insta cool" status some people are searching for when getting tattoos...
Get tattoos for you bro, not them. If you have something meaningful, non meaningful, flashy or just plain stupid, the only person that will see it every morning, every afternoon and every night is you. That makes your opinion the most important. _________________ "Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam."

I guess your right about people seeing Miami Ink and LA Ink! Then going to the Buckle and seeing Ed Hardy shirts! Then they want to get tattoos! Man what the hell is the world coming to! The best advice I can give you is get what you want man!
People give me hell about the Nebraska tattoo I have! But you know what I dont give a fuck! _________________ The only differnce between tattooed people and people who dont have tattoos. Are people with tattoo are cooler and can kick your ass! |

Very nice lol
Actually that may just be the one tat that could fit the category for anyone  _________________ "Catapultam habeo. Nisi pecuniam omnem mihi dabis, ad caput tuum saxum immane mittam."
