I say it is your body and you can mark it however you wish. With that said, personally I would never put a corporate symbol on my body. I love wearing around clothing like an Apple T-shirt or whatever, but as far as a permanent body mark I don't like it. What happens in 10 years if Apple sells out? Don't say it will never happen, because it does everyday in the corporate world. Will Apple always be successful? Who knows in 20-30 years what will happen and you will still be forced to wear that Apple around unless you have it removed.

Anyhow, I will again say it is your body and your choice to alter it how you wish.

I've considered getting an Apple logo tattoo, but I was thinking of something about the size of a quarter or half dollar, and of putting it on my upper arm. up to now, I've decided against. Maybe I should drink more, and more often.:p
Clarus is an excellent alternative, and if I were to decide to go ahead with an Apple tat, the dogcow would probably get the nod over the corporate logo.

That thing you got is monstrously huge, dude.

Rock on.

The problem with Apple tattoos is...

Apple's logo isn't cool enough to be a tattoo.

Sorry, facts is facts.

And big doesn't help, although small looks even worse.

I say just steer clear. I'm getting the FireWire symbol on the back of my neck.
It is cool, and shows my devotion to a dying technology.

:)

Not The average Apple tattoo. Just thought I'd share. I got it done yesterday.


Oh yeah, Go ahead and bash away, because I love my tattoo and nothing you can say will bother me.

These guys are going to seriously regret these tats in a couple of years. Then again, they provide something to laugh at so I'm not going to bash them too much :D

it back to front (pic taken in a mirror?) and the red and orange has run outside the Apple.

It was taken with PhotoBooth. Sorry, I forgot to switch it around. Yeah, the red, orange, and yellow all run outside the apple. I wanted it to be different Sorry about that pic not being the best.


Trust me, I won't regret it. You may think I will, but I won't.

OP, you don't think so now, but you will regret that in years to come. It's going to show up through most clothes and it's not even like you can wash it off, man...you gotta carry that forever... :eek:

You could wear black t-shirts for the rest of your life I suppose, but your future employer might take exception. You're a braver man than me.

i considered getting a tattoo a while ago. for months i explored symbolism, my existence, the meaning of life, and death. after much thought and many awesome designs thrown in the trash, i decided against getting a tattoo. maybe i will someday when i truly find something that defines me. i will kill myself first if that thing ever ends up being an apple logo or ... dare i say a windows logo.

i wouldn't even put an apple sticker (or any bumper sticker for that matter) on my car.

The only way I could see getting one is if you weave it into a larger design, I like the Adam and Eve idea that someone had.

As for the others, don't worry, laser removal is getting better by the day.

It doesn't show up through any of my shirts, not even white ones. I don't wear any thin shirts or anything like that.
haha, Yeah, I am a braver man than you, too bad i'm a chick. lol but close enough since I'm Gay.

No, I don't have a life. Art school is my life, therefore my mac is my life.

If you think mine is fake you're wrong. It's 100% real. I can photoshop quite fine too, but I didn't use photoshop on my picture.
