Something simple, like a logo of a band I like. None of this tribal or skull shit other people are posting. Anyone who would get one of those tattoos would be ashamed in 5 years, those kind of tattoos just spell douche. (Not that I think you're a douche for choosing them.)
Now I think about it, tattoos are really a minefield for making yourself look uncool.

I have no tattoos, and I liked them better when they were a sign that one had been in the military, grown up in a trailer park, or been in prison (or all three). They made useful social status markers back then.
That seems such a sad waist of a perfectly good medium.

I have a fair few little birth marks on my left arm , four that are in line with each other, and three that are almost in line, and a bunch of random ones. I think I'd get a tattoo of one more, and have people guess which one is fake :)

I'm all for simplicity, so I'd go for something in the standard black somewhere on my arm.

I want two: an art neuveau piece with water lilies or the like on my left upper arm, like a half sleeve (kinda along the lines of this: http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kq5coq025P1qzspj1o1_400.jpg); and a Super Mario sleeve on my right upper arm with like a freeze frame from the game.

Two passions in one, art and gaming. Just wish I had the funding :(

I want a heartless tattoo over my heart



A homunculus tattoo on my eyelid (probably a bad idea), or ankle, or back of my hand



The Valkyria Chronicles Scout Symbol on my Neck or upper arm. Probably upper arm



(its the one on his back)

I don't think i ever will get one but if i did it would be on my right shoulder.... due to a rugby injury i have almost no feeling in it so the needle wouldn't really bother me

Fuck it, I can't find a photo that looks like a tattoo of it, so I'll just type it:

Cookie for reference, not that it's hard if you know me.

Both are religious symbols.

I could never get a huge one. I wouldn't want a simple pattern on my skin to define me at all, so it would only ever be subtle (and probably a reference to something that few people will get).

Already got one, but if I was to get another, this:

"Are you a man, or a slave?"

If you are going to get it on your eye lid you may as well go all out and get it right on the eye, surrounding the pupil.

I'd have a serbian flag on one shoulder,a large cross on my back and the soviet star like the one on this video on my other shoulder.

I have a wolf on my right shoulderblade and a vinage wrap on my left arm. If I was to get another it would also be hidden, just not sure where.

A small custom ambigram on the inside of my lower left arm, and a 3-quarter sleeve on my right arm, which might expand a bit further onto my back and chest, but I'm not aiming for a full back piece. Been working on the sleeve design since 2003, and it'll probably take another good year to finish it. The ambigram however is done and planned to become reality this winter.
