I’m a tattoo artist and I know what you mean. But looking for it is the wrong way. Just wait for it.
I see people every day sitting around and looking at my flashes ……looking for “THEIR” Tattoo….. (the flashes are good, I made a lot by myself…..but only if you know what you want)……And most of these people don’t know…
You’re looking for a meaning…….a meaning from the bottom of your heart. But those you can’t look for. People think they get a tattoo…..but I think……the tattoo gets you…….May be it takes a lot more time than you want……but you’ll know one day.
Same with relationship…..if you’re looking for a girl, you’ll never find one. Stop looking………and one day you see the most beautiful girl in the world.
Don’t go for it……..wait for it

You should not have to look for ideas for a tattoo. I have too many tattoos to count and not a single one of them is flash, each and every one is absolutely unique. I understand that you're asking for a suggestion on art or inspiration for a design. But, if you are very serious about getting a tattoo, let it come from your heart. The idea of what you want should already be in your head, how to carry that idea out into permenant ink is the answer you are looking for. You can try looking into art books or images on line even to give you some sort of assistance.

I looked at my heritage and spiritual beliefs for mine. Think about what things mean the most to you in life. If you are really proud of your cultural background, look into some symbols that exist in it. If you are religious or spiritual, lots of options exist. Do an image search on google for some ideas. also, try stopping into a tattoo shop near you and browsing through the artist's books. You might just see something you really like ;)

I have 10 of them.Best thing is to look at the tatooist`s flash
[designs],for inspiration.If you see something you like bu done another way or with a change talk to him/her.They want you to be happy cause you will be an "advertisement"for them.
By the way,I hope to get more ink in my hide.

You shouldn't need ideas if the tattoo means something to you
Talk to a tattoo artist and have them draw you something custom

Wait until just the right thing comes to you. Have it related to your faith or family or something like that, since it is unlikely to change as you grow older. Don't get a current icon or cartoon or saying -- those things come and go. You need to have something that will be timeless.

You can probably get a lot of ideas from the library. Check the art section.

Do not do it, especially since you are indecisive about the shape. Tattoos are almost impossible to remove, so pay attention to what you are doing with your body.
