Got ink?

    romancerockstar

    So, just curious... I recently got my second one -

    How many tattoos do you guys (and girls) have? Where, of what, and how old were you? (If you can remember! lol)

    I'll start:

    I have 2:

    First at 18 - cheesy little red rose on my right ankle. Recently recolored, though I want to cover it.

    Second at 31 (a couple of months ago) - music notes from the song "Sex Type Thing" by STP running down the top of my foot. I dig it alot!

    I tried to add a pic - but am fairly computer illiterate and can't figure it out. If someone can tell me how?

    Want another... SD lyrics or notes, which is what I wanted ^^^. But that song has a special meaning to me from my hubby and I couldn't choose between my fave SD songs.

    But, I will... damn it. I will!

    K... your turn...

oh ok. that stinks. but it's your dog. they shouldn't be jealous of a dog or any other pet for that matter. you can't like an animal the same way you do a person.

shinedownjunkie45

Mon, 09/21/2009 - 18:13

sorry i'm pretty sure you could but still not a good enough reason for the other person to be jealous.

Labs do that to you. They love very strongly and are almost human at times. I have one and she is so close to each of us in the family. :D

shinedownjunkie45

Mon, 09/21/2009 - 21:59

yeah i've heard that too. i've never had a lab. but i have a cat. she is so cool her name is polaris she's awesome.

Mos def, if you can make it through that first year, you got it made. They can be very destructive when pups...especially if they get bored. Honey loves to eat kleenex and paper towels, and yes, she actually does eat homework!!!! LOL :lol:

shinedownjunkie45

Thu, 09/24/2009 - 12:47

destiny453

Thu, 09/24/2009 - 14:28

shinedownjunkie45

Thu, 09/24/2009 - 17:40

yeah especially yours cuz it covers a bigger area. i was lucky with both of my tats they aren't that big. so i was able to just kinda tap it from outside my shirt and it wasn't so bad.

destiny453

Thu, 09/24/2009 - 17:48

shinedownjunkie45

Thu, 09/24/2009 - 17:49

destiny453

Just so i look good in my wedding dress on the beach :) Then when it's done i will be eating what i want again :)

I think th key is to forget about about it. I have lost 10 lbs since mid July and I have no idea how. I haven't been trying. It's all good! :)

I was hoping to go for a walk today, but alas... my overindulgence last night has made that an impossilility!! ugh... :(

You are gonna get plenty of exercise walking through the airport!! Gypsy!! :wink:

While I was entertaining his Mom yesterday, I mentioned it and I think he realized how ridiculous (that took 3 times to spell!) it was so it's all good now. Like I told Merk, I take NO PRISONERS!!! I don't do jealousy...well maybe only w/ Destiny over a certain amazing bass player! LOL :twisted:[/quote]
lol. very well put lorilee. he should understand that this is nothing more than a place where all diehard fans of this great band come to enjoy each other's company. we all hang out on here and message each other and talk about the greatest band ever and their amazing guitar player. i don't like him like you and destiny so don't worry you don't need to have any jealousy towards me lol.

Yes just a little bit of jealousy though :) hehe....well on the tattoo front, it now hurts like hell from being bashed all weekend by theme park rides...and juts my opinion so don't go mad....but i hate boob tats...i really really do :( :lol: Sorry peeps

Thanks to you all! You are "my boyfriends" Haha! You are my loves, so maybe he's not so far off!

[quote="lorilee"]Well, so much for that idea ... today he said something sbout "my boyfriends on the computer". This is going from bad to worse! :cry:[/quote]

Big huge hugs and so much love to you!!!!! I have been in your shoes with the whole band, ink, "other more important friends on the internet" thing....you know where to find me, if i am still alive and kicking after Tuesday, I am sooooooooooo here for you!

Why not? i have one too. :)

Did you just get that SD one on your back?? Oh no don't get a boob tat!! :(

I know what you mean about itching i had to suffer it at work today! :( so what are you thinking of getting on your ribs??

definately.

I agree with Tony, you're a great inspiration.
You get everything possible out of life, that takes great courage. :)

i don't say things to look good. i've always been honest and said what i felt. i trully mean it. thank you.

wow. that takes incredible devotion. you never cease to amaze me. that is great dedication. despite everything that life throws at you, you continue to stare down that barrel of the 45 and take whatever comes your way. head on. i'm learning alot by simply being your friend. i want to thank you for your determination inspires me.

it's this anti infection ointment. it looks alot like vaseline only it's not. i get it at my local wal-mart in the ointment section. it just helps the tattoo heal and keeps infection out. but it's really gooey so i use a cotton swab to dab it over my tatt just a light coat over it to keep it moist.

yeah cream helps alot. i put A&D ointment on it when i first get it done. i do that for about a week and then start putting the scentless cream on it.

yeah they tend to itch alot. lol. i just usually tap it over my shirt lol.

[quote="destiny453"]Here is my latest tattoo and it hurt!! :lol:

Leona it's gorgeous!! :D

it was definately more painful than the stars on my back, don't know ifI would get another rib tattoo, but i probably will! :lol:

oh okay. still that takes guts.

Stomach was fine...very tickly actually but i won't lie...the ribs were a killer!!!

yes we do. i admire your courage. i don't know when i could get one on my stomach lol. or side for that matter. for now i'll stick to arms.

True that, Siouxi and Mollie!! Merk, yesterday I was sitting at my desk and I didn't even realize it, but I had a grin on my face :twisted: and my friend said "What???" What did you do and of course I said "nothing" which she TOTALLY did not believe!! I haven't been able to sleep or eat(before) and now I can't stop sinning with a grin!!! :twisted:

Once you see 'em, you will never be sane again!!!!!!!

Don't wanna scare you :twisted: but it will only get worse once you seen them.
I remember after seeing them in january i was on cloud 9 for about 2 months.
My co workers laughed their asses off. :lol:

LOVE LOVE LOVE all the ink!!!

@ Lori~beautiful my sista!!!!!

I want to add the shinedown one, like L, on my ankle, the crows on my left foot and a Floure~de~lis above my celtic knot on my inner left arm.

I wonder if I could it em all done at the same time!?!?!

what are you gonna get? It should be lookin' good by the time of your shows. :D I hope mine won't be flaking tomorrow!! :x

Lady D...There is nothing to it!! I was lucky cuz the artist I went to is a perfectionist and has 30+ yeras of experience. she thought of some things I never would have thought of. Go for it! If I can do it, anybody can!! :wink:

[quote="destiny453"]Lori you are fucking amazing!! :) Lol...that tattoo is actually awesome, you HAVE to show the guys that!! :D[/quote]It's hard to see right now but the inside is vines with shaded leaves. I am really pleased with it. As I mentioned...she recommended that I not put it on the spot we had talked about. The design could be distorted by the little folds on the skin. And we wouldn't want that now, would we??? :wink:

Cool Destiny..I have to get up the nerve soon..I really want one.

Sounds like heaven to me, with my best internet buds! I may be getting inked tomorrow...I HOPE!!

lol. lorilee i know. i gotta think about that a lot more. i'm not so sure. i didn't get my tatt this weekend after all my mother in law had a cook out for me to celebrate my bday. it was delicious the food was grilled by.... you guessed it mr. shinedownjunkie45 I usually do the grilin so everybody knows it'll be good lol. i love grillin.

[quote="lorilee"]Don't ask me what I did! I was tryin' to post this pic and it became my avatar!! Go figure!! But anyhow...this is it!!! :lol:[/quote]
it looks good lorilee. great work on it.

I ended up having to have it put on the inside of my ankle not my heel, cuz of the way the skin "wrinkles" by my foot...kinda? :?

VERY NICE Lorilee! I want one! :)

Wow, i love it, great tattoo!!

[quote="merkjr"]love your tats junkie.

i was gonna get the crow on one wrist and the butterfly on the other. but i have to wait until dad eases into the idea of a tat. i came home today (with the tat visible) and my mom handed me a sweater. lol.

to go back home where i can show it and not hide it.. monday![/quote]
hey merk your tattoo is so nice i love it. i like your idea of the crow and the butterfly. i keep thinking that i'd want that too but i gotta find a manly butterfly lol if i want that tatted some where.

Hey Merk...I hope you don't mind but I'm taking a pic of your tat to show my artist today...I love it!! I go under the gun in T minus 90 minutes!!! :D I'm SO EXCITED!!!!!! :shock: :D

merkjr...your's is so beautiful :) How's it healing??

i love my crows. everyone sees them and freaks out. when i tell them what they represent i usually get one of two reactions lol. either that i'm crazy or that I'm incredibly dedicated to the band. I think it's a mixture of both lol.

The crows are awesome....my friend got his just below where his elbow is!! They are very very nice :)....makes me want one NOW!! You gonna get any more??

thanks at first i thought of just the words tatted but then i thought that the logo would give it more meaning. i think you should definately get it some day. things like that mean so much to you I feel should be expressed and if ink is the best way to do it then by all means go for it. My wife thought it was weird when I first told her of my idea to get the Sd symbol tatted but once she saw how dedicated I was to getting it she was all for it. She doesn't really like tattoos but she figures if I like it then that's what matters. I hope you one day get it.

I love love LOVE the crows!!! That is AWESOME!!! I'm gonna take my camera with me tomorrow and will try to post before I go for the show on Monday. Thanks for sharin' Junkie!! Love Ya!! :D

I love your tattoos. Driven by Shinedown with the logo in black sounds great to me.

I want the word "your pain is a gif"t tattood on my ankle but my husband hates it.
But someday i will have it, maybe incorporated in a tattoo.

alright it's time for me to finally post up my pics of my tatts: [img]http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/zz11/shinedownjunkie45/DSC01361.jpg[…] this is my very first tatt the SD symbol. I need to go get it touched up. It was done about two years ago.
[img]http://i809.photobucket.com/albums/zz11/shinedownjunkie45/DSC01363.jpg[…]
this is my most recent tatt. the four crows. i'm very proud of this one. i'm looking forward to getting another done probably tomorrow. perhaps the lyrics "I'm staring down the barrel of a 45" or the words "Driven By Shinedown" with the SD symbol in the midde of the words just in all black. What does everyone think?

:) I don't do cleaning! haha...I do enough of it at work :lol:

Well i did some ironing, but that's about all. Tomorrow's another day and i don't have to work so plenty of time to clean. :D

Have you cleaned yet siouxi? :o I'm just watching tv, ross is away playing football in the pouring rain!

I'm fine thanks. I'm a bit bored, don't feel like cleaning my house :)

[quote="siouxi"]Youre both in my thoughts today. I got a candle burning for the both of you.[/quote]

Thank you Siouxi! You are very sweet..how are you??

[quote="destiny453"]Thinking of you today LadyD stay strong :)[/quote]

Well I'm off to do some daily chores! Lol speak to you later LadyD :) Have a great day. :)

And I will keep you in my thoughts as well..I've been there...

Yeah we kinda decided that Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own + Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of by U2 was kinda our song for that...just cos we didn't really talk much about it and i went to a really dark place! :( But i'm ok now though, i relaise now it's God's way of telling me I wasn't ready.....will be thinking of you tomorrow.

Thank you Lorilee!

Wow..that's crazy Destiny! Very strange...The Crow and the Butterfly is my song for that..it hit me like a ton of bricks when I heard it the first time!

Thank you lorilee :) :) I'm a tough cookie :wink:

You both are wonderful ladies and I hope today brings blessings your way! :)

That is so weird how life is...tomorrow is 2 years since i had my miscarraige and today is one year since we lost little Emily :( !

Oh yeah I could see that working...i ahev an image in my head for you right now...possibly with the hearts and angels entwined?...you could do something really creative with that! :D

[quote="destiny453"]Hey Lady D :) I'm ok today, 1st anniversary of a death but I'm on here chatting to friends so doing ok :) I have major tattoos, well only 5 but you have seen the size of that back piece...i say go for it girl! :D[/quote]

[quote="destiny453"]Lol...yeah lets not tell anyone....oopsss to late! hehe[/quote]Yeah, I'm not into the facial thing, but I could mos def handle the other, one of my best assets, if I say so myself! :oops:

[quote="ladydivine10"]OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :([/quote]Good morning Lady D!! :)

Lol...yeah lets not tell anyone....oopsss to late! hehe

OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :(

It depends how long you have had the piercing for, i have got loads of others and none of them have ever healed up...but the nipple one did...same with my eyebrow aswell...i'm glad it did though, my sisters kept telling me i looked like a big lesbian! :( Yeah it was painful!

Do they close if you take them out? The rip...ooooo! Sorry! :( Did it ruin the pierce?

Oh I have had both of mine done...it's not too bad, just afterwards...I did rip one of mine out by accident at work though...that was very very painful! But it is worth it...i dont have any of them in now but im really thinking of going for them again :)

I can so totally relate to that! My husbby would look absurd with any of that! That's why I have to look elsewhere for my cheap thrills!! It takes a certain kind of guy to pull that off. Ever since I "fell in love" with a fictional character named "Zsadist" I have been enthralled with pecs and pierced nips! I was thinking of getting it done myself. Bet it hurts though!

You can't beat tattoos and piercings on a guy...it is sooo hot! I'm really into lip piercings, always have been but wouldn't like it if Ross got one? total double standards haha...thats like i like a man to look rough but i always want Ross to be clean shaven? haha poor boy cant win! :D

Well, I can def dream about it! I've got it REALLY BAD now that I saw that pic with the piercings!! I never knew that before and now I am reallylost!!!
[b]Total Goner!!!![/b]

You never know girl...you never know! :lol:

I think it's kinda cute and very funny...like I stand some chance of getting next to him...HAHAHA :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

No Ross isn't keen on it either...but he has adjusted, we came to a comprimise...he gets his pics of the namked ladies and I get mine of the naked men! :D Fair I think...although I would rather not wake up in the morning look up at my ceiling and there is a pair of boobs there....but oh well i just turn on my side and there is a pic of Jared Leto :) :) hehe

My husband should be up for saint hood for all the shows, road trips, ink, piercings he has seen me through. We are night and day but he keeps me grounded when I get carried away....which I tend to do.

He would be even hotter with a wee bit of ink...I have my work cut out for him since he is Mr. Accountant, Finance man. LOL :evil:[/quote]He isn't too crazy about me drooling all over my computer looking at pics of somebody(?) all the time!! :lol:

That is SO FUNNY!! My husband is a CPA!! He has a small firm here in the area and is Mr. Stability!! See...it's the pierced nips for me and I just saw a pic of Eric*sigh* and guess what....???? OMG! Ididn't know he could get any better!!! :twisted:

im lucky, me and Ross love all the same types of music, mostly heavy and classical rock. :)

[quote="mad_mama"]Wait, Lorilee... are we married to the same guy? Apparently, we ARE! Welcome, Sister Wife![/quote As if that wasn't bad enough, he's a CPA TOO!!! Very good financially and very stable, but I have to exercise (or exorcise , you pick!) my WILD SIDE every once in a while! Which is probably why I hopelessly fantasize about Rock Gods!!! :lol:

Thankfully the whole family including my littlest love Shinedown..they didn't have a choice! LOL! All raised little rockers!

Wait, Lorilee... are we married to the same guy? Apparently, we ARE! Welcome, Sister Wife!

I love to listen to new music, my hubby on the other hand, listens to "classic rock", stuff from when we were younger. Some is good, but just so "tired" to me!

You would never catch my mum listening to SD....My stepdad on the other hand would give them a try :) He loves Nirvana and stuff :)

[quote="merkjr"][quote="lorilee"]I am a Libra too! I wanted the "S" on the underside of my upper arm so that it shows when I have my arms raised in "worship"haha!My teenage daughter didn't think it was a good idea though!Maybe I should listen to her???[/quote]

I'm not sure. From experience I think teenagers have a really hard time reconciling with the idea their parents are just older versions of them and try really hard to make them act like old farts instead of sophisticated cool people.[/quote]That is so true! All their friends love us and they just think we're weird when we do cool stuff!My daughter Haley(the one lucky enough to be going to the SD show w/ me on Thurs)listens to "calmer"music than I do!!She think's I'm wild!!! :twisted:

Merkjr thats a great idea for a tattoo :) I really like it, i'm Libra 2 dude :D i have so many ideas for my next tattoo i just don't know what i'm gonna do! Dilemmas lol

[quote="merkjr"]I have been thinking about the S for so long.. I just don't know how I'll feel about it in 10 years or something. I know I could signify it as something like strength since I've essentially had Lupus for 22 years; which makes me lean more towards the for in reasoning to get it.

I have decided now though that I am going to get a Libra tattoo with the lyrics from burning bright encompassing it. And then a sunflower with lyrics from fly from the inside.[/quote]I am a Libra too! I wanted the "S" on the underside of my upper arm so that it shows when I have my arms raised in "worship"haha!My teenage daughter didn't think it was a good idea though!Maybe I should listen to her???

Thanks for the comments.... My son is 2 1/2 years old...When i got the tattoo i didn't have the autographs yet..... But it has always been a thought of getting ALL of the Members Tattoed around it! But im in the works for a 3 doors down Tattoo right on top of the Shinedown tattoo... The 2 bands of my life!!!

Oh your son is beautiful...and the tattoo is so nice :) How old is your son? Having the names autographed would be cool....if you're a true hardcore fan..i'm crazy enough to get something like that :D

[quote="fenderguitars777"]I have no tats.[/quote]Hey Jaster- the bull is amazing!!Ilove it. I am kinda boring I only have tatooed eyeliner!!!hahahaha!!! :oops:(It hurt like Hades though!)

new ink for me soon :) :)

Yeah that's what I was like when i got the one on my foot, wanted to get something really fitting, it took a while but i got there in the end :D....im sure you will too :D

i haven't thought about the lyrics yet i know there is so much to choose from so it's hard finding something just right they all sound good to me lol.

Yeah that sounds good, if thats what you want then go for it...i really think you should get it, u thought anymore about lyrics then? :)

that sounds like a great idea. thanks for the ideas on the tatt. i was thinking of instead of 4 crows having five i miss nick and I still feel that he was part of the band i saw him play live and i feel that was such a great treat to watch him play.

I really like the idea of the crows with lyrics around it, sounds like a really cool tatt :) plus you could get it unique as there is loads of lyrics you could choose from....im going to get words at the bottom of my back under my stars....'Ad Astra Per Aspera'...it's latin for a rough road leads to the stars and is on the plaque dedicated to the Apollo 1 crew....i like it cos my life has been sorta a rough road....wot u guys think?

well that's mean of him tell him to give you another tatt that idea sounds great by the way. i'm wanting to get another tattoo here soon. sometime this next week. i want to have the words Driven By Shinedown tatted either on my inside left forearm or on my arm somewhere. although having the 4 crows sounds very tempting too. and maybe with some lyrics on their too. i need to get some prices as well. i think i can get it for a good price any ideas everyone?

[quote="willdabeastfraz"]that sound really cool... is your brother an artist or something? are you thinking maybe the 's' would be the body? and crows as the wings? is that what you were thinking? or just crows circling the lonely butterfly?

*EDIT*
lol i just reread this and it sounds like i'm writing a book... but i'm just curious[/quote]

I was thinking the 'S' as the body and 4 crows around it. Yeah, my brother has a tattooing license he just don't have a shop..though he had one but the lady that owed it..sold the building...it was a bad deal for him. Now just don't ever get his stuff out unless it's someone other than me.

I didnt think I was the type either...i was more into piercings, which is weird cos u wouldn't think it to look at me, but hey most of them are in places you can't see anyway ;) lol....then i got my first tattoo and got a little bit addicted :D

Love the sound of that tat! :)...someone i met at a shinedown show has just got the crows tattooed on his arm, its sweet, but i guess you would only recognise it if you were a SD fan :P

that sound really cool... is your brother an artist or something? are you thinking maybe the 's' would be the body? and crows as the wings? is that what you were thinking? or just crows circling the lonely butterfly?

*EDIT*
lol i just reread this and it sounds like i'm writing a book... but i'm just curious

i'm love all these tatts you all have. I wish my brother would get up off his a$$ and give me more tatts.

I figured out a new tatt...I want a butterfly with the Shinedown 'S' in the middle of it and 4 small crows around it and the lyrics...'Just like a crow chasing the butterfly' under it. I think that will be my next tatt...I need to get it priced though.

yeah that's why i have mine hidden up in my sleeve... when i show people they get surprised... most people forget i have it, or wouldn't expect i had one... they say i don't seem like the type to have a tattoo... psh...

Wow that sounds like a great idea :)...i really like that, its something a little bit different to everyone else aswell :D would be so expensive though! I want one on my wrist extended along my hand but can't just now cos some employers are funny about stuff like that.

i was thinking about it, and if i were to get sleeves, i would want some sort of Eco thing going on... like maybe have the four elements on my arms, with water and trees and flowers... it'd be sweet... but i don't know about the whole "job" thing

I quite like the lyrics to some of the SD song 'What A Shame' I don't know why but some bits in particular have an awful lot of meaning to me...but it's something I will need to think about, don't wanna rush in...thanks for you ideas :D

"I dare you to tell me to walk through fire!"

lol or if you don't prefer Shinedown...

"Walking tall, machine gun man. They spit on me in my home land."

"They've come to snuff the rooster"

" Come as you are, as you were. As I want you to be"

" and he still gives his love, he just gives it away... the love he receives is the love that is saved."
as you can see, i have a huge Seattle sound Bias... but i still like other music as well..

They stop where you can see them :D Lol...i think I have enough stars on me now...anyone got any ideas for a new tattoo? I fancy getting song lyrics on my other foot but I'm not sure what the best would be...any suggestions guys?

Where do the stars stop? :wink: :lol: :P

Really?! god thats quite expensive that's like

mine cost way too much... $300 U.S. and he did it pretty fast... i'd like to find out if that's how much he normally charges for a tattoo this size... i don't think i'll be going back there... just didn't feel like he cared...

Alot of poeple I know have sleeves which look good if you have good designs and that on them, but one wrong tat and that's it for life! Lol...how much did your tattoo cost if you dont mind me asking?....I think we got ours pretty cheap but we know the guy that does ours quite well

no i just have the one... i don't know if i'm going to get any more... if i do... i don't know what i'd get... knowing me... i'd get tattoo happy, and end up getting sleeves or something... cost myself lots of moneys i don't have

Yeah I really do, im going for another one soon but no stars this time Lol...I got the back piece done in 3 sittings so if it was just one sitting it would have been around 4 and a half hours....it wasnt too painful i was laughing getting the 1st part (i'm weirdly tickilish) :lol: but the bottom 3 stars really hurt as they were right on the spine! :( you got any more?

wow
you do like stars lol... how long did that back piece take?

very nice crest i like it. and suze yours is really cool. i'm not too familiar with 30 seconds to mars but i like the tattoo. it shows your dedication to the band. i have shinedown's SD tatted on my inside forearm i advertise the greatest band everyday. lol.

This is a tattoo on my left shoulder of my Family Crest

[img]http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s272/willdabeastfraz/Tattoo.jpg[/img]

it's a little more faded now... that is when i first got it...

[quote="tiffylou"]I like it![/quote]

Thank you :P

Yours are brilliant!!!

I was actually thinking of going for the Capricorn birth sign next (my sign) but I am so fickle I keep changing my mind about what I want LOL so I am biding my time for a while LOL :roll:

I only have a little one... so far :P

(it's to do with '30 Seconds To Mars')

[img]http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q233/purplesuze/mytat-1.jpg[/img]

Thanks...i see you added me on myspace, i will accept later...i will give it a crack again 2nite, if it doesnt work i will send u the link...thanks so much :D

I have tried twice but cant get it to work lol

How do u post the pics?? I want to put mine up...lol...they all look good :)

they all look good. i remember that design from barry's drum kit i have that shirt actually. it's awesome.

yeah i have to do the same thing. few people are able to recognize the Shinedown symbol on my arm but when they do they always tell i'm crazy for having tattooed it but I just tell i'm a dedicated and die hard fan of the greatest band. i think i heard something like march 21st the album would be released over there. I'm so proud of the success they have achieved.

Thats true :) Lots of people always ask me, who are Shinedown so I get to tell them all about this new and exciting rock group :) Lol...their album review is in Kerrang magazine this week, can you believe the album is just coming out in the UK? My tattoos were quite cheap but still beautifully done :)

well the only tattoo i have cost me $70 USD. but I got it at a place where they are pretty expensive and do a pretty good job on their tattoos I'm pretty sure I could have gotten it cheaper. lol that's awesome about the Shinedown shirt. I don't have my shindown shirt today but I advertise everyday lol with my tattoo.

Nice :)...how much do tattoo's roughly cost in the States?....im wearing my Shinedown t-shirt 2 uni 2day :) (just thought i would randomly add that in) lol

yeah stars are pretty cool. the next tattoo i plan to get is the shindown barcode symbol i plan to get it on my forearm on my left arm.

Yeah, im a little obssessed with the Stars thing, but I just think they are beautiful and I know I will never regret any of them :)

Cool, I'm getting a new one soon, but just have to decide what and where. Lol

that's quite an assortment of ink and stars that you have. i only have one so far its the Shinedown symbol on my inside forearm i plan to add more soon.

I have 4 so far....have blue stars on my left wrist, a large star and my name on my right wrist, 'You're My Star' written around stars on my foot (in memory of those i've lost) and black, purple and blue stars going down my spine...as you can tell i luv stars :)....i also really like piercings but have 2 many of them 2 mention! I would really like to get some lyrics from 'What A Shame' = possibly, 'god forgive the hands that laid you down.'
Well post pics when i work out how 2 :D

I dont have any ink YET still broke its on the list when i get a nice job instead of a crap one. There is this eye that I want with a tear drop coming out if very similar to the design on the Silver Side Up album. I am a great fan of Nickelback because as with Shinedown they have been a band which I can always relate to the lyrics. I feel as if that would have a double meaning for me not only for my love of the music but also because it would be a way for me to express the pain and sorrow I have been through. I would put it on right arm, I am still thinking of others. I would like a Shinedown one but I cant decide since I would not be sure which lyrics to use and I don't like any of the album art enough to put it on my body.

Ahhh! The Young and the Beautiful!

Some of those are really nice. Congratulations on taste and art, folks.
I've seen horrible... disasters in my days! :)

I only have one so far.

It is on my chest and it is the words Live Love Burn Die (From the song Lipgloss and Black by Atreyu) with nautical stars at both ends I got it when I was 21...a few months ago

TY and pardon the size of the picture. I am techno-challenged and have no clue how the make it smaller.

Wow! I love it, very cool. :)

my latest ink...

[img]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a112/mollie66/newink001.jpg[/img]

It is on the inside of my left wrist/forearm.

The GBOF stands for "God Bless Our Family," my beloved grandfather's favorite saying when we were all together, or just watching the Vikings play football or taking a walk along the lake.

And the never-ending circle and celtic knot is one of my fave symbols.

[quote="siouxi"][quote="shinedownjunkie45"]i have one tatt so far it's the sd symbol on my inside forearm. Outlined in black and shaded in with red i'm very proud of it.[/quote]

That's very cool, got any pictures of it?

@Jaster lol i ain't gonna tell. :oops:[/quote]

yes actually i do i will try to post it up as soon as i can get to my laptop. the color is starting to fade since i had it done last year i need to go get it reshaded and i want to add the words "Your Pain is a Gift" on the top and bottom of it.

Finally found pics of my ink....

[img]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a112/mollie66/edited.jpg[/img]

It is on the outside of my right ankle.

And this one, pardon the crap pic, is on my left shoulder...

[img]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a112/mollie66/maggies10birthday029.jp…]

I am jonesing for another....might have to add a bit of shinedown somewhere special. :)

I have 1 its a sun w/ 2 celtic butterflies & Beyond the Sun underneath it with the S of sun is the Shinedown S. Just got it in june. I can see now why people say they are addicting.

I have.... 20... something?

I lost count, honestly.

I also have none. Not against them, I just don't want one on myself.

i have a celtic clover on the back of my neck, and a 4 leaf clover on my wrist. i got them both in the past few months (im 19)... and i plan on getting more very soon. my next one will probably be shinedown or paparoach related :-)

I have a Shinedown one and a Seether one. And a small lightning bolt with a star in it.

I'm a star maniac! I have 5 tatts and 4 of them all have stars!

Nice pics everyone!!

The third one I got was when I passed the Fire Accademy. It's my badge with the American flag reflected in it and a morning band with my brother's name and 9/11/01 (We lost him in the towers that is what made me become a firefighter to follow in his footsteps)
This is on my left shoulder blade.

What an amazing tribute!!!! I got goosebumps reading your post. Thanks for sharing!

I have 4 all 4 are huge and took many hours each.

The first one I got was when I was in a band and I have a huge red B.C. Rich Mocking bird guitar with blue flames (I brought my guitar to the shop and he did it from that) That covers my whole right bicep.

The second one I got is an American Indian arm band. It's a rope that goes around my left arm between the should and bicep with a dream catcher and feathers that run down my tricep.

This is on my left shoulder blade.

The last one I have is a huge red bull in Firefighter turnout pants and huge muscles with a fire helmet on my right calf.

I am an ex powerlifter (I still lift on my own) and my nick name is Bull

There you have it.

I have three...

"LiVE" for the band of my heart in Throwing Copper font on my right ankle @ 39

Celtic triple knot for my inspiration on my right ankle above LiVE @ 39

and triple spiral and moon on my left shoulder @ 40
