Looks like pretty nice detail on the wings, or it would with a less blurry photo. smile.gif

That's mine from about two years ago, a few hours after it was first done. The circle's actually perfectly round, despite how it looks. It's on my left ribcage, on the side. I'd have more but with all the other stuff I've spent money on since that one was taken, I'm way too broke to consider it.

Edit
Fixed the image, reiterating that I still haven't been not-cheap enough to get another done.

Is there any significance to 51 other than it being your alias?

I just realised I really missed a trick with the topic name...

Im sure you guys will (or should) recognize my solitary tattoo. Once I can figure out how to add pics.

Posted by: Insegredious 9th May 2011 21:51
I have no tattoos, but if I had to get one, I'd get the ones my old lifeguard trainer had: an "L" on his left foot, and an "R" on his right.
They stood for "leadership" and "responsibility".

Posted by: Blinge Odonata 10th May 2011 08:18
Haha.. thats a joke right?
If not you could get the same but switch which feet they're on: it shouldn't matter right?

Posted by: Aeris-Logan 10th May 2011 14:26
How do I attach a pic? eh.gif

Posted by: Blinge Odonata 10th May 2011 14:58
host it first, somewhere like photobucket or imageshack.us (which is what i use).
-There will be a browse option on such image hosting sites where you select the picture from your computer.
-It'll be uploaded to that websites servers and you'll get a link or several. Then back on CoN there'll be an IMG option at the forum
- A dialogue box will appear ask you for a link beginning with "http://" or something -> paste the direct link URL from the hosting site and it should appear.

hopefully that advice wasn't too messy =]

I don't have a tattoo and generally don't want one either, with one notable exception; when I complete a full ironman (eventually), I think I will get the ironman tattoo on the back of my calf. I'm not entirely sure on it, though.

Lets see if this worked.

did you READ the title? mad.gif

I'm half kidding, I haven't really heard of tats for accomplishments before.

And Aeris, what's that?

Yeah, looks ok by me!

I think it's sorta unique to the Ironman competition. I mean, I'm sure people do accomplishment tats for other things too; I've heard of retired racers who have their PR or something along those lines. The Ironman logo is the only one that I know if that is a bit universal; a lot of people that complete one get the tattoo, and always on the back of the calf.

Im shocked you dont know what it is! I mean, this is a Final Fantasy forum after all. tongue.gif

Posted by: Blinge Odonata 10th May 2011 19:52
please change the title back. changing the subject of someone's topic hardly encourages people to make new ones..

Posted by: Malevolence 10th May 2011 21:56
if it weren't for my multitude of skin problems, i'd get a d20 tattooed over my heart. but alas, it's just not meant to be sad.gif

The tattoo

It's the FFVII main screen logo! That's awesome.

I've got a running bet with my girlfriend that if our first kid is a girl then she gets Meteor tattooed as a tramp stamp wink.gif . If our first is a boy however I have to get Hello Kitty on my ass.

Posted by: Blinge Odonata 11th May 2011 08:28
Haha man that is NOT a fair trade-off!!

Now that you've changed it back, I expect you to post at least three threads today that conform to all the forum rules and get five replies each in their first forty-eight hours, or I'll have to conclude that you were just whining about losing the cleverness of your thread title, and not about actually posting more content. Don't worry, I'm half kidding!

Now, to avoid being the spammy guy, since I've already posted the only one I have, I'll have to post the two my wife has the one my wife has that I actually have photos of right now - I'd say that counts since I was the guy who interpreted the original designs into something that the artist could manage.

Yep. I have the unofficial guide to FF7 and I took the pic in the front cover to a guy I used to work with. He did the tattoo in exchange for a large pizza (I was a delivery driver at the time so I got the pizza for free and actually got paid to deliver it to him). I figured it was a good deal. smile.gif

And if you do end up having a boy and get that tattoo, you better never leave her ... lol I couldnt imagine the next girlfriend's reaction when she would see hello kitty on your ass.

Hm, I am personally not a friend of tatoos.

On the one hand, do what you desire, it is your own life and you have the right to make your decisions on your own.

The thing I am really careful is that you can't simple erase a tatoo you don't like anymore. Imagine you might don't want that tattoo in 3, 4 or 5 years anymore.
If I am not mistaken, there are tattooing methods where the tattoo will fade away in some years, though.

Posted by: Aeris-Logan 11th May 2011 16:54
My tattoo is the only one I have and its on my calf. I almost never wear shorts so most people dont even know I have it. And its Final fantasy 7 and Im going to be a fan for life. Hell, my daughter's name is Aeris and my son's middle name is Barret. smile.gif

Posted by: Bas 11th May 2011 17:33
And I thought I am a nerd. Meh.

Posted by: Kame 25th May 2011 05:40
LOL, was I the only one who did a double take at the topic name and think that A in the word was an I? pinch.gif

Also, I don't have any tattoos or piercings. Never really been interested in getting one myself but I think it'd be cool to be a tattoo artist.

Seems like the ones that I've posted are about the only ones that have survived this long without being lost. So here's my new one.
