I have a pretty cool idea in my head for a tat but lack the skills to get in onto paper and then to the tattoo shop. What I really need is a cool graphic artist or even a cartoonist maybe looking to make 25 or 30 bux so I can use the tat idea as an emblem and put it on some t-shirts. My mind is a racin!

I have the exact same problem. Stick figures are just about my limit.

I know someone who is a good artist, but he is lazy too and has never gotten around to putting it on paper for me. After 2+ years of asking, I gave up.

Wow stick figures??? I think you may be a step above me!!!! I'd like to get the drawing into the computer so that I can run it through a sticker cutting program or get it silk screened on shirts/jersey or something like that.

Why don't you just do what Pugzie did...
Burn an imprint of a rear brake rotor on to the side of your leg! DOH!

Didn't someone post about wanting to get "Freeride" tatoo'd across their back a while ago? He'll be popular in prison.

You wouldn't even charge that cuz your buddies are guinea pigs for your apprentiship. The kanji took about 3 tries to get it to ok. I was the first skin he worked on other than his own.
