Topic: RE: so what's your favorite tattoo...?
well, I have 2 favorites....on the back of my neck is a butterfly. it signifies my wls transformation, of course, but also has another meaning. it is shaded in colors of pink, purple, and blue, and signifies my sexuality (colors of the bi flag). below that, is a triskellion made from thorns and roses, symbolizing my lifestyle choices.

My "G"...I have a script G (married last name) with some scroll work on the front of my left shoulder...all in orange. I'm fair skinned and freckled and the ink looks like part of me. I'm not (really not) a name or portrait girl, but I do love my G!
Topic: RE: so what's your favorite tattoo...?
My favorite (right now) is a teensy flower (about the size of a quarter) I have on my chest. There is no deep meaning to it...I was out bopping around with some friends one day and decided on a whim that I needed a new tattoo and that's what I got. It reminds me of being young and free and happy and I use it to remind myself to stay that way. =)

Topic: so what's your favorite tattoo...?
So it seems quite a few of us have significant coverage...with all the hours spent under the gun, do you have one piece that stands out as your favorite? Why?
Around my left wrist I have stitches that look like my hand has been sewn on (think frankenstein's monster) and along the underside there are crooked letters that look like stitched up open wounds that spell "LOVE"...I got it done about 10 years ago, and MANY since...but it really is the most meaningful...I got it during the worst time in my life when my best friend was killed...it reminds me every day of how important and painful friendship and love can be....it has also been very theraputic to remind myself every day of what is most important!...and to live like I really mean it!
so do tell...

Topic: RE: My Celebratory Tattoo
Well, I don't want the whole thing, just the lake, the 4 swans and their reflections, and the branches of the dead trees above them. I'll do a half sleeve of it. I have the phoenix on my back, and the upper back has two smaller ones. it just wouldn't fit there. I dont want to add more to an area, like the ribs, that might need to be pulled after PS.
I eventually want my singing pinup girl, too ... but no idea where to put her!

Topic: My Celebratory Tattoo
I've got only 50-60 more to lose (in my estimation) so when I do, I will, like most of us here, commemorate the occasion. I've already talked to my artist, who did all of my big work, and he's absolutely gung-ho about it. AND to boot, he's thrilled to be this deeply a part of my life. He did my divorce Phoenix, my word as part of a literarly project, my arm piece to celebrate my music, and my raccoon tracks (just this tuesday) to honor my Nana. Now he'll help me celebrate my emergence into "skinniness".
I want Dali's "Swans Reflecting Elephants" Don't none of y'all steal it!! 
I have had this painting up since my college days, and I thought .. how FITTING!! The swans reflect the elephants in the small lake... Genius.
~~EDIT :
I thought I could post the HTML codes for the pics, but it didn't work. BOO. Anyone with ideas? I'll post the photos if i can.
