Ya, you bet. I don’t think I have any good pics of my tats. I will go about getting some and send them right on in. 🙂

Try geocities. It’s free, and it’s where the People of Straight Dope photos are located.

BTW, this is a deliberate bump of sorts… with my own buttocks. I want you to know my handsome mr. bagfusciatrist convinced me to remove my clothes so he could take photos of my tattoos. He emailed them to you already so let us know when it’s up. 😃

Ok Baglady, Obfusciatrist…your tats are up. Those are gorgeous, Baglady. Not that anyone else’s suck, but I had to make the thigh tat 33% larger than I was going to because the smaller size just didn’t do it justice. MAN, now I wanna get another tattoo STAT. Not that I didn’t anyhow, but this just makes it worse. I’ll end up having to write cheap porn to support my tattoo habit. Not that that’s a bad thing.

And by the way, I will now never ever mistype “obfusciatrist”…had to type it about a billion times. 🙂

WOW! Baglady those are awesome!! They make mine look like nothing! Everybody’s got some really cool tattoos. I’ll try to get pictures taken of mine this week and send them to you Hamadryad. Great job on the site!

Mine will be coming along, but it’s going to be a week or two yet, as the roll of film is still in the camera…

I’m gettin’ there… 🙂

Thank you very much, Hama. I do have a quick question, though – the photo of my thigh piece (of the Hawaiian flowers) looks very out of focus now, but I know we sent you a clear, sharp photo. What happened? If you want the photo made smaller, let us know. In the meantime we gotta get you a sharp copy!!

The reason? I’m a dumbass.

What I’ve been doing is making it so folks with 1-2 tats get a 300 pixel tall pic; people with more than 2 get a 200 pixel tall pic. Your thigh piece was GORGEOUS and I felt that 200 pixels didn’t do it justice, so I re-stretched the pic to 300 pixels…causing it to go out of focus. I am RIGHT NOW going to reload the original pic. It will be in focus in…I say five minutes. 🙂

Sorry about that. Beat me. Please. No, really…heh.

I keep bumping this because it keeps ending up three pages back in less than 24 hours and I don’t want **anyone** with a tattoo to miss out on the opportunity to display it to the DOZENS AND DOZENS of people who have already viewed the pages.

Still looking for another host; may just go through Bell Atlantic since we have our account through them anyhow. C’mon, people…show us your stuff!

Also, contributions to the “Buy Hamadryad a New Tattoo” are, as always, cheerfully accepted… 😃

Hey Hamadryad, why don’t you just ask TechChick to add a link to your page from the SDPeoplepages?? [and NO, I don’t want these photos on my peoplepages.]

I just took some pics of my tattoos. It is on a new roll of film, though, so it may still be a while before I get my pics in.

eh hem, yourself, I would _swear_ I included my handle in the original email…if not, well, it’s your fault for not being psychic! 😉

Thanks Hamadarling!

Went back and looked at the original email…

and, of course, **Hamadear** is right as always.

My apologies, lovely one. I’ll try to do better next time.

I finally got some decent pictures. The ones taken with a regular camera came out blurry. We borrowed a digital camera over the weekend, though (oh, I have GOT to get one of those!) and I got some great ones. I’ll do my best to remember to send them along this evening.

I have to go to a friend’s house and use his digital camera because I don’t have one. I’ve been meaning to do this for weeks and haven’t gotten around to it. I’m just procrastinating… shame on me! I’ll make sure I get them taken this weekend and sent to you by early next week.
