Tattoo Idea (Click Mine First :D) - February 10th 2009, 11:28 PM

I'm getting my first tattoo. I'd like to start simple first. So I think I'm going to get a foot tattoo in a beautiful font that says "Every Saint Has a Past, Every Sinner Has A Future" in black.

Yay or nay?

That seems a little long to be on a foot to generally, it sounds good and as long as you like it then that's all that counts.

Sounds pretty.
I like it.


Did you come up with that, or is it from somewhere?

Font tends to be larger so that would wrap around your ankle maybe twice.

That does seem a little big to just be on the foot. Maybe have it starting on the foot and then wrap around the ankle up your leg? That sounds kind of cool. But I do tend to like black tattoos better than colored. :]

That's up to you.
I got my first one on my right shoulder [on the back side] I know people who have tattoos on their backs or one their ankles.
Just remember that when you get lettering it will be bigger than you want it so that the letters are legible.

I like tattoos on the ankle but it's totally up to you.
My personal opinion on side tattoos? I'm not crazy about them. If you decide to have a baby that skin will stretch and might not look the same after a baby.

Its a lovely quote. My advice for tattoos, is don't have it somewhere obivous, and definately don't have one on your shoulder, my sister has one there and it looks horrible whenever she wears a dress, and she has two others (one lower back, one on her hip) which she loves and doesn't want to get rid of.

I like the quotation, but it does seem a tad long for me. If you were to get it done, have you considered on your neck? Jeffrey from Project Runway had that, and I thought it looked AMAZING!

What about around one of your arms..? Like the biceps (sp)...?I don't know what you want to do in the future but it's just a thought.

I always like the idea of across the shoulder's on the back.
Like, straight centered if that makes sense.

I would go with the ankle. It would look cool if it wrapped around just right.

Starting on your side would look weird.
If you're going to get a quote you should have it laid out so the entire thing can be read at once. (back, arm, ankle)

I would worry about getting a quote, since inspirational quotes can embody ideologies much more than an image, you know? It sounds stupid, but even with an ideological image you can appreciate the image as an image. You can't really do that with text. I don't know, a text tattoo seems like something you could easily get disillusioned or bored with. As for side or foot, I think side might be a little too big? How big were you thinking of getting it?
