I have been searching for three days now..

47 messages · last activity 9/9/2006

A couple of years ago I saw the perfect picture of a tattoo I want on my back. It was a morph between a bird of paradise with the upper body of a nude woman flying with arms outstretched. I have been searching the internet for the picture but I am not very good at this internet stuff. Is there any one out there that might know where I can find a picture of this tattoo or something similar that you have seen? Please let me know...now that I am ready financially to get another tat, I can't find the one I want...Thanks so much. Jennifer
What the hell was the point of posting this again? You've gotten answers to your other posts. Pull your head out of your ass before you post again. Do a little thing called READING first.. *sheesh*
I seincerely apologize.... i wasn't paying attention and when reading the replys i must have clicked on a wrong link and it reposted. Completely unintentional. How do I delete it?
Silly. Just giving you shit. It happens (double posts..etc) more than you think, actually. And I want to commend you for taking the shit I gave you, and responding in a perfectly calm, reasonable manner. Hopefully we'll see more posts from you. Hang out for a bit. You might get to really enjoy it here. Can't delete. That's just something that we as posters are not allowed to do. Gabe is the master deleter.
I posted 2 pictures I did a couple years ago last night that sounded exactly like what she wanted free for her to use. Triple checked and they WERE posted! Today they are gone? What Gives? This is not the first time my posts have dissapeared. Is there a problem?
Trying again.
Im Having size issues. Try this:
I didnt realize this post was RE POSTED! All understood now.
Please dont judge the layout or the execution. This piece was being DEVELOPED and why it wasnt finnished. Feel free to have your artist modify it to suit you if its what your after. John
Youve searched for threes days and posted twice. I took two hours to dig this up...transfer between programs and post for you. Offerred it to you for FREE... not to mention the hours in the drawing and Not even a word of thanks......whether you could have used it or not id have to say it points towards ingratitude. No wonder people are not to quick to GIVE here. I would have liked to seen the finnished tattoo, But dont expect well ever hear from you again unless you need something. John
It's kinda like farting into the wind around here sometimes.
Maybe she just hasn't had a chance to check back on the forum yet....
Nope.... She farted and ran.... what a turd.
Her last post was AFTER I had posted my pics the night before.....So...although that would have made a good excuse...It dosnt work.lol
Ah HA! And a turd with corn at that!!!
Hello, all. I am certainly sad to see your most recent posts. Unfortunately, I am stuck with dial up AOL, and the last time I was on...as you said...yes I posted but did not get a chance to post on this thread before I was kicked off the AOL connection. I have been working my ass off for the last few days and...as Theval kindly pointed out...I have NOT had a chance to check back in and thank you so sincerely for your earlier post with the pics of the awesome Phoenix. I was elated to see that post...I apologize that you were offended that I have not posted back to you. Single mothers of three boys who have college, jobs, cooking, cleaning, and homework to deal with can neither afford high speed DSL nor afford going online whenever I want to. I go online when I have 5 minutes to spend relaxing before I finally fall asleep....I do thank you though. Your work is truly awesome.
I knew I was right.... You just didn't really seem asshole-esque enough to do that....
Jennifer, I sincerly appologize then. I hope you can use this or at least the theme fits. If you do. Please post the tat. Thanks, Paleojohn
Thank you for the apology. I hope that I will still be able get advice from ya'll. BTW...How do I post an image? I would like to show you the tat I have now to get your opinion on whether what I have in mind would mesh well...and I have been diddling around in photoshop...I found, in addition to the Phoenix you sent me, a few sketches of Bird of Paradise alone, and female form alone, and I would like your opinion on what I did...
...okay, I'll take my crow well done....
go to www.photobucket.com (it's free).... upload your photos.... underneith each photo there are three lines of code....copy and past the "Img" code to the thread and VIOLIN! ...If you do it wrong your eyes will exploid and you will die.
Ah...never mind...I just read the "If you want to post a picture post...duh. OK...let me know...the first is the tat I already have...still needs to be completely colored in...
Your eyes won't exploid. They might explode though...
...details Theval, minor details....=P Jenn, I want to make sure that I understand this first. You want to know if the tattoo of the Phoenix/bird of paradise idea that you are thinking about getting on your back will mess with the tattoos that you already have on your arm?...right?
LOL Theval...I knew what you meant. Ha...i get to spend all night online tonight! We have Tropical Storm Ernesto heading our way...no school tonight...woo hooo!
Well...my idea is that the Bird of paradise chick...will be on my right shoulder blade...somewhat diagonal I think.. with the woman reaching for the buttterfly. I am uploading the bird/chick to Photobucket now...slow going though with dial up LOL
Dial-up...I know your pain.... Bring forth the firey, naked, flying lady!!!
LOL sir...I, however did not go firey...you'lll see...patience
LOL sir...I, however did not go firey...you'lll see...patience
LOL sir...I, however did not go firey...you'lll see...patience
Oh. my appologeeeeeeez! ...Bring forth the not so flaming, naked, flying lady!
LOL why in the world?? i hit refresh and it reposted my last reply??? What is that about? Can you believe...still uploading...is it the dial up or photbucket?
The uploading issue is due to the dial up... yeah, don't hit refresh or it will continuously repost. after you post just exit back to the forum.... I feel that I should tell you that there is a limit of repeated posting. One more and Gabe (the owner of the site) will mysteriously appear at you house and club you upon the head....ruthlessly....with out pity....and then take your herbal tea....
LMAO!! OK...finalllyy!!! Ok...also opinion, please...white feathers or green??
That is an aweful lot of white...not that it couldn't be done but the chances of it staying are very slim.... you said this is going to be on your shoulder blade... no bigger than or completely covering?
Right shoulder blade...completely covering...hopefully with the arms of the chick as close to the flowers on my shoulder as possible so it would look like she is reaching for the butterfly. Yea..I wasn't sure about the white either...I was basing that on an actual pic of a Bird of Paradise...you think green or a different color would compliment better?
I think so.... the white just makes it look unfinished for some reason.... The green that you have now actually works very well, but I am unsure how a green that dark would work on skin.... Once again, not that it couldn't work.... that would be something that you and the artist that you choose to do this piece could definitely discuss.
OK maybe I should lighten the green....thank you
no prob-lame-o!
Like flamingos there color depends a lot on their diet. Here's a good pic of one with a lot of color: You might consider more yellow/orange rather than green.
Ooopss.... Here ya go:
OK...I have been messing around in adobe again...I think this tail is better...let me know what you think please?? The first one os my personal favorite, but you guys are the ones that are the pros...is it feesable to get something detailed like that??
The answer is yes...but I am not that qualified to give you the reason's why though....sorry. It is possible though.
Definately some yellows to highlight the green if ya use white blow it up with yellow and green washes...TAz
.....Is it cold in here?...... *WHACK!*.....Sorry!!
Thank you all so much for your input. Is there a particular one that you like the best?
