    I'm not sure how I feel about text tattoos. I always assumed I'd just get a little picture or symbol of some sort of my choosing. But a text tattoo sounds kinda cool

    I could get text put in to an image tattoo but I couldn't just have the text on it's own depending on the image I could get 1 of 2 phrases; "Apocalyptic and insane my dreams will never change" which is a 30 seconds to mars lyric which kinda sums up a lot of my mentality. The other is a quote from Robert Jordan's wheel of time series; "Death is lighter than a feather, duty is heavier than a mountain" which is just a quote that stuck in my mind for a long time since I first read it and love. A lot of my mates have text tattoos but I've not put needle to skin yet.

    Also Rye, boney areas like the shoulderblades hurt lots because of the shallow depth to absorb the needle similary avoid the upper inner thigh and other extremely sensitive areas.

    I suppose like all tattoos you'd have to worry about what they'll look like as you age. My great grandpa had tattoos all up and down his arms from when he was in the Navy and the text tattoos were just rounded green blocks.

    Cool link rubah! Seeing all those tattoos made me go read Desiderata again.

    My friend has "Tabularasa" tattooed on the base of her neck on her back. Tis pretty cool.

    If I ever got a text tattoo, it'd have to be something meaningful. I do want to get a graphic one, but now I am sorta considering getting a small text one first. Hmm...

    I'm so glad I don't like Kurt Vonnegut, because every text tattoo on that site was that same piece of writing by him. Jeez.

    It's a really neat site though. I really like the ones based on e.e. cummings, because he's one of the only poets I like.

    "this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart"

    I'm happy that my tattoo idea still hasn't been taken.

    My favorite tattoo on the site so far is:



    But I also adore:



    The only other thing I would ever probably get tattoo'd is

    "Love is a tired symphony you hum when you're awake"

    All tattoos are terrible.
    There is no signature here. Move along.

    I have 2 and they are extremely personal messages that will hold true forever. Getting lettering tattooed is the same as getting any other. As long as the reason for getting it is timeless, the tattoo is timeless.

    I dislike tattoos. I find them to be rather ugly.
