Sent…mine sux compared to the other dopers. I just saw Nice Artwork. Beats the Louve or MoMA any day. IMHO: Rachael’s is most uniquely placed. Mauvaise, Is that a cute freckle or a small fly buzzing in the frogs face? Superbee wouldn’t be caught dead on a rice-grinder. Mad Poet might be a secret member of the illuminati. Francesca’s is quite puzzling. Baglady knows some real artists. ---

Well I have a cool tatoo… well it’s not so much a tatoo as it is pen ink which I spilled on myself… But it kinda looks like a squiggley heart… and with a little imagination you could spell Mom if you stare long enough… ---

I won’t send a picture, but my tatoo is the word “Shorty.” ---

I just sent two new images. One for me, and one for baglady; we both added one big tattoo each a couple of months ago. ---

Oh, I forgot to mention it in the email, but if you could label both pictures as being done by Pat Fish of Tattoo Santa Barbara (Santa Barbara, CA). ---

**Hamadryad** - Kudos on the website. Very cool, thanks for all your work. All the tattoos there are great, I like them a lot. But if I ever get around to borrowing my friend’s digital camera, take some pictures and send them in, I’ll show you all what _real_ tattoos are! ---

MistressDryad you really know how to punish someone! I am having a friend put the finally touches on my next tattoo and then I will get good pictures of them and mail them in. ---

Yeah, and if RTFirefly’s pic of mine shows up any better, please use that. The one you have makes me look like an elephant. Fanks, bebby. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by obfusciatrist \* > **I’ll admit I’m just a poser, but you dare question the quality of my wife’s tattoos?** Oh, I must have been feeling cocky when I posted that. I’m not anymore. But I don’t question the quality of any of the tattoos on that site! I think they’re all extremely cool. It’s just that I seem to have _more_ than most people, unless some of you aren’t posting all your ink. And I will get around to sending mine in soon. I’ve already told my wife I want her to take some pics. ---

I was just talking trash back. My wife (baglady) may not have the most tattoos (though I think she has the most currently on that page), but they are all of the highest artistic quality (except the ones she did herself). ---

Ah, so **Baglady** is your wife. I haven’t been following that “make fun of your wife” thread. No, I certainly won’t impugn the quality of her work. I love the turtle by Pat Fish. (I have seven turtles myself, one of which I would be willing to trade for that one.) And you’ve got some nice work yourself, **obfusciatrist**. I think you can hold your head up proudly amongst tattooed types. ---

OK, so this is partly to bump this up again, but I figured I’d mention that if I wasn’t a moron, I would be sending in a brand new picture to the site right about now. You see, I spent some time on Photoshop last night getting the design I want finished up, then stuck it on a disk this morning, took it over to Kinko’s to be printed (no printer at home), with the intention of then taking the printout with me over to the Boston Tattoo Convention, but found that I had ejected the disk before the picture finished being saved to it. I did, however, get several cards at the convention, so now that I have settled on a design, I can get it done at either of the two places I can stop by on my way home from work some day soon. I think after that one, I’ve got ideas in my head for about seven others. But I’ll worry about that later.
