    any ideas?
    I know it should be something original thought of by me, but It doesn't hurt to ask for ideas:)
    I want one on my shoulder....in the back of course:)

    do you have a general idea that you're thinking about? There's so many things that you could do. I like about.com's tattoo gallery, you might check that out.

    I think that a prerequisite to being able to get a tattoo is being able to SPELL
    "TATTOO"!!


    Likewise, no one who can't spell "TONGUE" should be able to get theirs pierced. I'm sick of seeing people spell it "tounge."

    i was thinking about something along the lines of something small, maybe an eye.
    something to resemble my ' third eye ' :p i dont want anything typical like a butterfly or fairy. maybe something that resembles peace, tranquility more positive things.
    as i am surrounded by too many negative things.

    jeffrey...you're a dork, so i made a mistake. i just spelled the word how it sounded in my head. :p

    In big green letters: Duck is the Awesomest, and then a picture of the duck bunny (I think it's in my gallery)

    haha yeah no-one is perfect and who cares if he spelt it wrong...i don't, for the record i will spell it wrong too. i think tatoos are cool i maybe wanna get one on my arm someday but it would have to be unique and something that'd i'd really think was cool, i wouldn't go over the top tho like have them everywhere

    consider...a symbol of balance. i dont know what, but you seem to need some balance. maybe an eye of horus?

    The eye of horus would be really cool, it's an awesome symbol. I like the "om" symbol too. Here is a picture of it:[​IMG]

    are there any other symbols by chance that might mean around the same thing?

    hmm... possibly. You can probably google it, just look for different symbols from different cultures. I'm sure you could find a badass symbol that means something that represents who you are.:)

    You're forgiven, 'cause you didn't go crazy when I pointed it out. I like the way you rolled with it.

    But you won't forget that it's spelled with a double-T now, will ya?! :p

    So, if you're looking for a peaceful, tranquil tattoo, how about the planet earth with a peace sign superimposed on it, with a sort of "silver" reflective effect, like the peace sign is made out of silver or platinum? Or maybe a sleepy moon crescent, you know, the kind with a face on it, a knowing smile? That's tranquil... I myself am partial to interwoven knot work, like the ones you can see in my gallery. If you go to my gallery, you will see a trefoil knot tied in bright yellow cord. According to something I read, that is called a "peace knot" and if I ever get a tattoo, that is almost sure to be it.

    Blue skies,

    Why not create your own symbol that "means that" to YOU, and you'll be an originator? Who says you have to use the symbol that long ago, some other dude created to mean that meaning?

    Below is the knot I was talking about. It's supposed to mean "peace" in some mythology... sort of the balanced unification of body, mind and spirit.

    the eye of horus is more about protection than balance... just a little fyi :D

    I like the idea of designing your own. Even peruse the net, find something that intrigues you and alter it so it suits you better (that's what I did for mine)
