Triangle Tattoo
I noticed that there are many different meaning behind a triangle tattoo.Does anyone know what the main meaning behind it is?
Abbey Lee Tattoo
I've always wanted to do a post on her, but it's so difficult. There are so few photos of her tattoos out there, and even less information on them.A tattoo on her right ankle. There's a big debate on tfs about what it actually is. Some people think it's the gemini sign, whilst others think otherwise.
A heart in a square behind her right ear.She also has script on her right wrist.
More on her to come, need to do some more digging.

Lindsay Lohan update Tattoo
I have to be honest, this annoyed me slightly when i found out, cause i wasn't too fond of the first one. Now she has added another.I like the quotes and placements, it's just the different coloured stars used to decorate it.
This new one is on her right arm.It says 'I restore myself when I'm alone'
The older one on her left arm says 'Everyone’s a star and deserves the right to twinkle'
Pixie Geldof update Tattoo
I think she's caught the tattoo bug like her sister Peaches.
The newest addition is on her right forearm.
'What will survive of us is love', a quote taken from a poem.
She also has her mother's signature on her left wrist.
A ladybug on her right wrist.
A star on the back of her neck.
A outlined shape behind each ear.
A star on her leg.

Wrist Tattoos
Wrist tattoos are very popular for both men and women as there are many design choices available. There are also several placement options as well. Here are some ideas to consider before you get your wrist tattoo.
One of the most popular choices for wrists are bracelet type tattoos that encircle the entire wrist. Good design choices for this are a chain, barbed wire, celtic or tribal designs, flowers and even quotes or wording. If you don't want this type of tattoo, then you can either have your ink on the top or underside of your wrist. 
The design options for these placement areas are endless. Here are some ideas to get you started:
- Hearts
- Stars
- Zodiac Sign
- Butterfly, Dragonfly, Ladybug, Lizard, Frog, Spider, Turtle (or any other flying or crawling critter)
- Cross (or other religious symbols)
- Dolphin
- Sun or Moon
- Name or Words
- Angel
- Cherries or Cherry Blossoms
- Chinese or Japanese Symbols
- Musical Notes
- Clover
- Horseshoe
- Dove
Almost any small design will work great for a wrist tattoo. Many people have a design starting at the wrist and then going up the arm. Another idea is to have both wrists tattooed with different words or symbols that compliment each other. There is really a lot of unique ideas for these types of tattoos, but they just have to be on a small scale.
Many people also choose this location to get their tattoo because depending on the design, it can be easily hidden. You may need to hide it because of your job or other reasons and a watch or bracelet can be worn over the tattoo to cover it up.
Wrist tattoos are also a good choice for someone that is getting their first tattoo. Many times people want a small one to begin with and these are perfect for that. Use the above ideas to get you started on planning your wrist tattoo.
Different Legs
For those of you who have noticed, i tend to like literary tattoos or simple symbols.
But this is gorgeous.

F**k Yeah, Tattoos!
Don't be fooled by the photos I have chosen to post (I think i have a type), but this tumblr has a HUGE range of tattoos!
To visit the Tumblr:
Fuck Yeah, Tattoos!
John Mayer Arm Tattoo
A little different from what i normally post, but it's fascinating to look at.
24 Hours.
I know it's my choice in the end, but i wanted to see what you guys thought.
I'm going to try to get another tattoo tomorrow (spending on whether the tattooist is available or not)
I was either going to get:
'Into the wild' - the movie title
'2.11' - a date
'nothing's like before' - a quote from a song
or initials
they all have personal meanings
thoughts?

Hilary Duff update Tattoo
Take out your magnifying glass again.Hilary has gotten a new tattoo, on her right rib. It says 'ma petite amie,' which is french. The literal meaning is 'my little friend' but the proper meaning is 'my girlfriend.'
Rumor is she got it with/for her best friend.
Sienna Miller Tattoo
Three stars on her shoulder
A swallow on her wrist
I once read that the swallow she has is actually the symbol for the Primrose Hill group (Primrose Hill is a place in London where she lives). Which makes sense, because Robbie Williams and Kate Moss alike also have a swallow tattoo.
Then again, she could just be making up an excuse for why Rhys Ifans has such a similar tattoo her.
She also has a star near her right hip
Tattoo Design For Guys - Great Tattoo Drawings That Guys Absolutely Love
Like girls, guys also have the flare for colors and beauty. You would be surprise that they are also quite meticulous in choosing their own tattoo designs and they seek inspirations from various sources. Here are some of the most common drawings that they love.
Chains. Guys love the look of chains tattooed on their arms, back, or ankles. The way it is drawn in a coiled form sometimes covers their whole bicep or ankle areas. Styles could vary from the normal chains, barbed wire style, or spiked chains.
Cross. This usual illustration is quite famous for the guys. It may vary in size from small, medium, and large. Some cross tattoos have more carvings on the edges; some are the simple look of intersecting vertical and horizontal lines.
Anchor. Also considered as a sailor tattoo, this tattoo drawing has been around for many generations already and still creates the same frenzy in the tattoo industry even to this day.
Dragon. This mythical creature causes so much fascination to tattoo enthusiasts. It may because of its attractive look and the meaning it projects as well.
Fire. Guys are fond of the effect of flames and they use this as one of their tattoo designs. It usually comes with the smooth blend of colors of red, orange, and yellow.
Flower. You would not believe it but flowers are also bases of guys tattoo designs. Roses, cherry blossoms, and orchids are among the most preferred.
They are also into the symbols of their favorite sports or hobbies such as skateboard, ensigns of their most wanted teams in basketball, soccer, or rugby. For those who love fishing they may take the designs of sharks, dolphins, or barracudas. The younger generation also admires Anime characters that they also opt to have its names or pictures tattooed. The same way they do with their favorite video game characters.
The way that they choose their designs is all about their interests and its significance to them. They project their admiration and their desires through tattoos and usually they carve these on their chests, backs, arms, and necks.
Drawing Tattoos - Tattoo Ideas
Drawing tattoos is fun but when you get stuck for design ideas it's not so fun as you could get frustrated by having to think about drawing what you love to do, the process of coming up with quality tattoo concept ideas can flow quite easily if you take the following into consideration.
Draw on interests - Your main area of interest you could specialize in and create art based on what you find easy to draw, for example you may like fantasy art, so you can draw many things in this area, like dragons, warriors, dwarves or anything, so long as it gets you thinking about your drawings with solid ideas.
Creative atmosphere - Often in a creative environment when you work with others or you have art on your wall and you are relaxed you can come up with more ideas than you can handle and this is good and can make the difference for your many ideas to flourish, watching a movie while you sketch is one of my favourite ways to be creatively inspired, especially if it's an action packed special effects bonanza that appeals to that part of the brain that subconsciously takes snap shots of all those wonderful images.
Free Drawing - When starting to draw freely without concentrating too much, you don't exactly know what you are going to draw but it's a very useful exercise to try and some of the ideas that you generate can inspire you further if not now, then another day, so keep all of your drawings and concepts in a safe place for viewing when you get stuck for new design material

Catherine McNeil
I seem to be doing a post on Catherine McNeil every month!
She has so many tattoos she could be the next Freja of the model tattoo world!
I've written about this one before, but i didn't have a good picture of it at the time. It's the words going down her right rib cage.
It says 'The day that I die will be by far the most beautiful day I ever lived.'
The other tattoo I'm posting about is the one on the top of her right thigh. It's a Chinese symbol, I'll try to find someone to read what it says.
UPDATE: the Chinese symbol says 'snake'

Tattoo Drawings - You Might Be Missing Out on a Lot of Real Artwork
Depending on how you're currently searching for tattoo drawings, there's a huge chance you are staring at bad artwork. When I talk about "bad" art, I am pointing at the generic stuff that's laced throughout the web. This cookie cutter junk seems to be everywhere now, but it's really not, because changing how you search for tattoo drawings will open up the flood gates to original, high quality art.
I'm not trying to make this simpler than it is. It's actually that easy. I know it is, because I've used this simple and effective method so many times in the past and it always brings me to the quality artwork I want and need. It doesn't even matter what style you're hunting for. The biggest mistake most (90%) of us make is something very fixable. We always begin by picking a search engine and using it to look for artwork websites. 
This is not just some minor mistake, because you won't find the sites that have quality tattoo drawings like this. The better and bigger galleries hardly ever show up in their lists.
Next, I will share the solution for it: Big message boards. Yes, something so simple can bring you to a whole new level of tattoo drawings. These huge message boards have loads of topics about tattoos, which can be found right inside of their archives. 
You don't want to pass them up, because the larger ones are stuffed with the info you need, such as names and links to the amazing artwork sites you've been missing. You find them because artwork enthusiasts are always sharing their findings and experiences in here.
I can't even begin to imagine how many generic tattoo drawings you've seen lately, but this helps stop it.
