Instead of posting two different threads, I will post them both. I dare not introduce this topic in any forum other than this one soley for protection from getting my butt chewed:) Ok...I got a tattoo this past Friday. It was my first and probably only tattoo. I wanted something I could relate to diving...in a way...at least to the underwater world...I wanted something I thought would be somewhat unique...So I ended up...after months of consideration...getting a blue-ringed octopus. Nope...It isn't to scale. I did want it to be seen. Too many unlucky souls who never saw a scale model until it was too late. The tattoo artist did a great job. So now I'm wondering who of my fellow SCUBA Board subscribers has tattoos themselves and what they are. When I initially went in to see the artist, I gave her a pic and she said she could do it. I was very excited to know I would have my unique tattoo in about a week. When I went a week later to get the tattoo, the artist said there had been two people that had come in since I was first there asking about...yep...a blue ringed octopus tattoo:) So much for unique. But I am interested in what kind of tattoos some of you may have or may be thinking about getting.....
The last topic is a question I want to ask...How the heck do you get the popcorn to show up on a post?....

When you post, go to MORE smiles (on the right) and scroll down a bit.
 
I got two tats and I have had both for quite some time now. One is my Navy lifer tat and something of a family tradition on my left arm. I got and old sailing ship with US Navy bannered underneath. Navy is my life so it makes sense at least to me. The other is a head of a wolf and wolfman bannered below it. Yes I howl at full moons and I am not exactly lacking in body hair. So there you have it. Ocassionally I have the itch for more, but my other better half would disown me if I got any more.
 
Thanks Rick and Okamiotoko, but you guys are staying up way too late:)
 
My avatar is my tattoo. It's Mickey Mouse in scuba gear. I have loved the mouse since I was tiny little girl. I commissioned an artist to do the artwork and this is what I decided on.
 
I have a Mickey Mouse (head) on my right leg and a turtle with a purple hibiscus flower in the middle of it on my right shoulder. Yes, I will probably get another one. First one was in 1991 and the second one was in 2004.

SCUBAMickey...Just read, a couple of posts after yours, that choppersrule has a Mickey Mouse tattoo. Guess Mickey is in the lead right now.
