Tattoo of the week
Body art can be either wonderfully, meaningful, or a permanent mistake. Tattoos are lifetime body art and usually have a story behind them, whether they are significant to that person or a drunken mistake. Two years ago, senior Kurt Kincaid sat 4 1/2 hours to get his back tattoo done in one session at Freaks Tattoo on Noland Road.
Jefferson City Now Allowing Tattoos
JEFFERSON CITY – City leaders have voted to allow tattoo businesses in the city with many different stipulations. The city voted on Tuesday January 19th, 2010 to allow tattoo businesses, but required that they operate from 9am to 8pm. City News-Tribune reported that another regulation requires the businesses to blend in with their surroundings. The city also will tax new tattoo businesses. Another win for tattoo business around the country.

Like I have said numerous times before one of the dumbest things you could possible do is get a tattoo of a lover’s name on your body. Because let’s face it you over likely won’t be with that person for the rest of your life. And a lot of times one times you get your lover’s name tattooed on you it jinxes your relationship and you finish up breaking up. But if you absolutely must have your lover’s name tattooed on you, there is a better route you can go. First of all you could get their name tattooed in a different language so only you would know what it said. Or you could get their birthday tattooed on you again in a different language, or their Zodiac sign or something to that effect. But think long and hard before you go through with something as serious as a tattoo.
Alright, I know today isn’t Wednesday but I have another post sort of related to celebrities. I was reading the latest tattoo news and I found this story about singer Charlotte Church. He is demanding that her fella and sister of her one year elderly daughter as well as the kid he is currently pregnant with to get her name tattooed somewhere on his body. He believes that because they are not married that he ought to do something special for her. He’s even started to think up tattoo designs for him. I honestly do not know how much truth their is to this story but I think it is ridiculous.

And so, I decided to point out 5 ways to source for tattoo ideas and images so you won’t get stuck with boring and insipid pre-made designs typically found in tattoo shops or generic tattoo web-sites, a number of which will impose a fee of anywhere from 10$-20$ for ONE measly design!
Nowadays, it isn’t easy to source for tattoo ideas and images what with the rampant availability of ho-hum creations, which even my tattoo artist confirms: “There are plenty of identical looking designs lying around. A lot of folks don’t even bother doing portfolio hunting so they tend to opt for pre-made designs that are terribly, terribly lame. I’m sick of doing the same elderly shite. Can’t they come up with something unique for a alter?”
4. Web Message Boards – If you wish to receive ideas in the comfort of your own house, then you ought to think about joining message boards that specifically discusses about tattoos. You may find lots of inspiration to form your own original tattoo ideas and images but beware however, as there appear to be a lot of spammers and abusive users lurking in those message boards.
Hopefully, the following suggestions may assist you in conceiving lots of original design ideas, and realise them in a novel manner, the results of which not only mark your body with breathtakingly unique work of art but also fill you with a sense of pride.
3. Find a very lovely tattoo artist – All right this may sound obvious, but did you know that plenty of “tattoo virgins” would basically go through the motion of getting a permanent ink on their skin without properly discussing with the artist? Getting a tattoo is a very serious decision, and designs that you intend to have for possibly the rest of your life must be well thought out beforehand. It is best that you approach an artist and discuss with him or her at length regarding what kind of a tattoo you have in mind.
Do not make any decision hastily and be sure to provide the artist with all the relevant info like what the tattoo means to you, what it represents, any deep symbolic meaning that you would like to indicate, and so on. These are all the things that you must relay accordingly and who knows, perhaps the artist may conceive a much better rendition of your original ideas.
2. Graphics Application – My second favorite way to source for tattoo ideas and images. Are you handy with graphic applications such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP? If yes is your answer, then prepare for hours of creative fun as you generate and manipulate images to help you create tattoo designs from scratch.
1. Online Tattoo Galleries – Enthusiastic to gain access to a large array of mostly sumptuous looking tattoo creations? Well, online tattoo galleries are definitely the place to haunt if you’re absolutely keen on finding great looking tattoos that are updated on a regular basis. Apart from the large library of ever growing designs, you are also entitled to print out their images in the highest quality resolution thus making the tattooing method a whole lot breezier for the artist. Some galleries also furnish you with access to plenty of highly useful tattoo resources including tattoo studio reviews, directories, helpful members forum, and even videos to help make your journey in sourcing tattoo ideas and images a very pleasurable one.
At last, you can stop wasting time scouring the net to find tons of gorgeous tattoo ideas and images
