Internet Marketers and Their Tattoos...

TommyBussey · 10-27-2009, 07:16 PM

Ok, so I know this isn't totally about making money. But I also know I've met a lot of IMers who are inked up.

What's your favorite tattoo? Could you share the meaning behind it?

I actually have 3 tattoos and am currently drawing my 4th

My fav is the one on the inside of my right forearm. I drew "bamboo" style borders around it myself, and there are 3 Modern Chinese symbols. "Faith" "Strength" "Life".

My faith gives me strength to truly live.

So, let's hear it! I know you're out there

PS. I just started this thread in hopes to get a fun little discussion going. I know it can get stressful trying to make our businesses successful and sometimes it's good to let the mind have a little fun

I thought about getting a massive dollar sign on my arse. Spur of the moment thing. Havn't got round to it yet though. lol

GuerrillaIM · 10-27-2009, 07:51 PM

"Made in england" in a little circle around my belly buttom and "slippery when wet" on my... well.. I'm sure you get the picture.

Only joking, thought about tatoos but my interests change as I get older so I'm not overly enthusiastic about getting something that permanent.

Allegro · 10-27-2009, 08:05 PM

Im going to get "Per Aspera" on my left forearm, and "Ad Astra" on my right forearm (on the inside each). Near the elbow on the inside of the right forearm I want to finish it off with the skull of the band broilers (as seen in their logo below):

Brad Gosse · 10-27-2009, 08:06 PM

I have 6 tatoos. Love them!

TommyBussey · 10-27-2009, 08:14 PM

Can't resist posting to this thread.

I'm a tattoo fan as well - I have a Chinese character for tiger (my star sign) and a manta ray.

There will be more tattoos in future but don't tell my husband

TommyBussey · 10-27-2009, 08:16 PM

Haha nice girl, that's what I like to hear

Personally, I love my girlfriend's tattoos haha

VilPietersen@ · 10-27-2009, 08:53 PM

I've got...

A british bull dog on my arm (went into the parlor and said "...mmmm that one")
A microphone wrapped around my forearm with a graffiti piece that I designed my self. (I make music and write graffiti)
My British Paratrooper Wings tattoo'd on my neck (HARDCORE - Do you need an explination)
Below that I've got "Airborne" written in my back - It looks like it's been cut with a scalpal and the skin has been ripped off to reveal a sort of bloody boi mechanic bone structure. Basically meaning if you get rid of my skin, underneath I'm a machine!!!

"AIRBORNE"

Chris Morris · 10-27-2009, 08:55 PM

I have so many Tattoos that my kids think my arms are coloring books.

Daniel Brock · 10-27-2009, 09:05 PM

Tattoos are so cliche now it makes me sick.

Sorry guys.

If you like them, that's cool with me...

P.S I'm getting all sorts of chinese symbols tattooed on my back and am also getting some tribal armbands!!!!

And maybe even a tiger on my shoulder blade!!!

Oh yeah and also I'm going to get some ear and lip rings so I can look bad ass.

rondo · 10-27-2009, 09:08 PM

I don't have any tattoos, but a guy named Billy received $3000 for getting a HostGator tattoo!

mrozlat · 10-27-2009, 09:30 PM

Sylvia Meier · 10-27-2009, 09:40 PM

Ross Vegas · 10-27-2009, 10:30 PM

I have it in my head to get a huge vegas themed quarter sleeve. With some shiny dice, city skyline, and then the famous sign worked in possibly edited in the following way...

I'm tossing about the idea of doing an event out there, and do it then to immortalize my "first time" running the show.

Dunno kind of have this number in my head, and it's motivation to reach it, and effectively seal my future as a renegade entrepreneur.

TommyBussey · 10-27-2009, 10:38 PM

I really like that idea man, sounds pretty sweet. That design I'm currently drawing is going to be very intricate and colorful as well.

Cool idea man.

Paula Steen · 10-31-2009, 03:29 PM

I have two tattoos.

The first one is a tribal son formed by several letter J's. Each one represents someone important to me.

The second one is my current avatar picture. When my son was still living in Guatemala I got the jaguar tattoo as a symbol of protection for him.

ThomM · 10-31-2009, 07:33 PM

My favorite.

jhornung · 11-05-2009, 02:20 PM

I have an ugly frog on the middle of my back due to a drunken college bet. The $1500 was nice for a while...

KimW · 11-05-2009, 02:26 PM

I have a hand holding a crystal ball on my left shoulder.
Its old and faded, and I was planning on getting it recolored but I can't do that now.
