I have friends that have a few tats that are just werid and stupid but this is up in the top 3 I would say. I love Apple to and I love it a lot more since Vista came out but this is completely crazy. I say if you up to it and crazy enough to have that on you until you die to just go for it. We only live once so you have to do some crazy things so go for it man!

Not sure I really like these, but this might be how the faces would look without the pixelation. Faces from the older icons with the pixels taken out, then the colors from the newer set added in. Green face on the sick mac, because, well, it's a sick Mac.

Wow, thanks for doing that! Actually, looking at those, I think the rounded original B/W version wouldn't be so bad. I guess the artists quick sketch kinda freaked me out, but that would not look half bad.

The solid lines really ought to be okay at a tattoo scale, just as long as the same proportions as the original bitmaps are kept. On Happy Mac the size and shape of the smile is going to be the toughest part, just a slight change will give you maniacal or smug instead of its pleased little self.

Is there any way you could make a rounded version of the B/W Macs? That would be super-awesome.

Sure. PDF too, so you can pick your own size and resolution.

That is awesome, thank you very much!

I plan on going in Monday to set up an appointment, or, if they're able to do it then, to get it done then. I'll be sure to post up pics when it's all over with!

Went by today, set it up for tomorrow night. I'm using the rounded b/w Macs, I was told they're "hilarious". :p I'm glad the artist thought so.

Just thought ya'll should know.

Well, this photo looks like crap since I can't frame it up right, and since I just took off the bandages, but what the hey:

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go clean these puppies off.

Thanks! Yeah, I've got some lotion from them, and after two days I'm supposed to switch over to using Curel or a similar lotion multiple times a day.

I'm really happy at how these turned out, I didn't think they'd look half as cool.

This looks like another MR SCAMMER to me.

Post more pics or I will continue to believe that is just MARKER PEN.

of course!

Oh, it's so true! *buries face in hands*

I drew it, and then I hit myself repeatedly with a hammer in order to get the skin to swell up like that!

SCAM!

That, or I just got the damn tattoos.

One more, just 'cause I'm happy:

I find I can point to either one when people ask me how I'm doing. It's a real time-saver.
