and smash, is it just the pic or is the ink in your tatoo really, really black? how old is it? it looks very well done.

My left outerarm sleeve...
my right outer sleeve.
Sorry the pics are a little blurry.
they are 3-6 years old and are still brighter than most peoples brand new tattoos....
I dont have pictures of the inside of my arms right now....

The first one is my family crest. The second one was acually my first tattoo which was messed up but fixed by the artist who did the crest.
BTW, I got my first tattoo when I was 35. :D

sorry overlooked this question before-- the tattoo was very well done, but it was also about 4 days old at the time i took the pic (if you look closely you can see my leg's a bit puffy still around the tattoo) thus the reason the ink still looks very black. it's still nice and black today because i washed it and took care of it as directed and applied the ointment stuff and continue to moisturize regularly. i've no bigger pet-peeve (sp?) than a nasty ol' faded tattoo that hasn't been well kept

I took pics of mine last night, the quality isn't real great as I took them myself.
Here's my right upper arm/shoulder, Tribal Sun, full color. This was my first Tat, 5 years ago.
Here's my left arm, my name. This was a stupid tattoo I got when I was younger...a friend wanted to get one and wanted me to get one first so he could see how I reacted. After I got it, he didn't have his I.D. so it was worthless. We went back later and he got his.
This is one I got Saturday. I've always had a thing for tribal art and dragons, but I never found one I liked. I finally found one.

Sorry meng.
..I only have one pic...and it needs to be scanned...I dont like to " show it off" though...In person I dont mind showing it but I dont think I want to put pics on the net. It was a custom drawing ( the original was torn up in front of me when done) I know it sounds paranoid 
So far though yhere are some nice ones in the thread.

I'm in my late 30's now, and I have loads of friends who have them, but wish they didn't. Most of them got them when they were younger and thought it would be cool. Now that they are a little older, most of my friends are embarrased by them (again, especially the females). The main problem I see with them is that eventually you're going to get tired of it. But it will ALWAYS be there. To each his own, but I just think alot of people are getting them because it's the "in" thing to do, and most of those people are going to regret it later in life.
