If you've read this thread: tvwforum.proboards92.com/index.cgi?board=newsandandannouncements&action=display&thread=1168198783 ...then I'm sure you will realise how special Tony Vincent and Tony Vincent World is to me personally. The past year has just been AMAZING for so many reasons, and i'm currently at a place of wanting to commemorate this time in my life in some permanent way, soooooo ..... i'm 99% sure on doing this already, but there's that 1% holding me back and i'd like your thoughts.... I'm thinking of getting a version of the Tony Vincent World site logo (triquetra) complete with it's 'TV' initials tattoo'd on my inner left wrist ....not too big, and not in the grey / maroon either .... just black and flesh. Should I ... what do you all think? Poll it and help me decide ... ing x and, I know, .... it'll hurt like STINK! tonyvincentworld.com

the logo means something to you personally so id say go have it done, how big are you going to have it?? the same size as in your signature but up a bit lol the bigger one???
is this your first one? your brave having it done on your wrist ouchhhh, but it will look good,
if you think you wont regreat having it done go for it, at the end of the day the symbol means something to you truely, ive got two tattos and regreat one a bit, even though it means something!!
pssssttttt! i was going to say no to colour as i think they look personaly a bit tacky! so when you said black and fleash i was like phewww, i had a colour one done at 18 and ive regreated it ever since not the meaning however. my personal humble opition
let me know how you get on!!
I like the symbol and for what it stands for as you have said before on the other thread,

I don't know, I think tattoos are nice, and that would be an amazing symbolic tattoo, but I have much more then 1% then saying no on the poll, so I just put undecided.

Putting the initials inside the logo in just black ink...I'm having trouble picturing it, but if they have a good artist in Wales who can make it fabulous, I say go for it. That symbol is a big part of your life, and it means something special to YOU. So do it if you want. But it WILL hurt. I have some leftover anti-bacterial ointment for you if you do.

Not sure about the initials though, as I'd never put anyone's initials on my body but hey, that's my opinion. If it means so much to you then go for it!! You know you want to

I can't quite picture tv's initials in flesh tones. I'd be inclined to stick with the triq in solid black, but if you ask the opinion of the tattoo artist I'm sure they'd give you good advice as to what would work best. I know you've been agonising over this for ages and I think you've already made up your mind really. Doesn't really matter what anybody else thinks as you're the one who has to live with the outcome, although it's good to get feedback from others to enable you to make an informed decision. I say take on board what people have said, then go with what your heart tells you and you won't go far wrong

Not a tattoo person, myself...but it's your body and your choice at the end of the day Why not use your skin as a canvas for expressing yourself. If it means something to you, go for it. Although if you're having doubts and having to ask forum members to decide, I don't know if it's such a good idea...you're not really doing it for you

I agree with Pam, not so sure about the initial part.

That's what I was trying to get across Also, I don't know if you're aware (not sure if you designed the logo yourself or whatever) but it's actually a Led Zeppelin four symbols logo.... See at the bottom..."ZOSO" is Jimmy Page, the next one is the bassist John Paul Jones, followed by John Bonham and then Robert Plant. Just dunno if you knew or not...?

Thank you all for your input on this! no, no Shaz I didn't design the triquetra. We just added Tony's initials. It is a very common symbol which has a history stretching way back. Aswell as Led Zep, it's also used on the television programme 'Charmed' aswell as being the logo of my local authority leisure facility and the 'bio hazard' symbol for blood samples in my place of work! Because it is such a 'common' symbol I thought to leave the 'TV' initials on there to make it unique to me. However, yeah, ... it will take a good tat artist to design this - to incorporate and highlight the initials - as i'm not keen to have any colour other than black. We'll see. Gonna take all your thoughts aboard and stew on it a bit more I think. thank you! ing x

If it's something which you feel strongly about then go for it! I don't think you should have the tv initials though - I think you opt for 'I created the tony vincent fan site and it's really rather fab' instead
