Getting a tattoo on the ball of your heel is supposed to be the most painful area to get one done, but think of the plaudits, and also a tattoo that is almost unique in its position.

I think you might be going about the wrong way, you seem to want to show off your italian heritage but that heritage seems to mean not very much to you that you can't think of anything to use.

The idea of using Yahoo Answers to find something that will mark your body for the rest of your life also seems strange.

But if you did want something Italian that looked good.... how about Romulus and Remus on either side of your ankle?

I looked into having a tattoo a few months ago and in two weeks i am having the outline of a black orchid on my lower back about 4 inches long.
This is no offence to you at all and not meant in any judgmental way but when i looked into this i was informed by a few tattoo artists that a tattoo on the foot or ankle is a sign of prostitution in many counties. I looked into and its true. I would guess it depends on what you would get but i would research it first. Obviously its your decision but just remember its there for ever!

In my opinion Colored tattoos look horrible and tacky. There are some really nice tattoos out there search the web or you can get them designed. Why not search for your family crest if you want to bring your ethnicity into it and maybe interpret that into your design? If you google it there is a site you can get it off.

Good luck :)

Love the assumption! i think of the situation may well be slightly troublesome and practice for an prolonged haul in this one. i'm guessing that any section right on desirable of your sternum is going to be slightly painful. Plus i assume it additionally relies upon on how vast you're "up desirable there" in case you understand what I recommend. *blush* reason which will provide distinctive hardship if the artist has to push the sides of the piece out in order that the element does not go through. you ought to save in mind which you would be able to no longer make it to small, or it basically won't seem right. i think of your placement thought is rather cool, no longer many human beings get ink right on desirable of thier sternum. i haven't considered it besides, i've got considered some above the breast, on it, around it, yet no longer smack dab interior the middle. i'm going to provide you the standard spiel to those that i think of have the spectacular motivation for ink: learn your artist and the save to confirm you 2 click. some questions you ought to ask your self are, am I comfortable with the artist I actual have? Does he understand my thought? Is it sparkling right here? How produce human beings rated this place? good success and let us know the way it went!

How about
"All coppers are Bastards" across your face.
No?
Remember that once a tattoo is on it will be there for the rest of your life and what may be `fashnable` now will look out of place and tacky in a few years time.
You must take that into consideration before having one done.

I am female 57, had my first tat at 18 on my thigh, at 21 had one on my chest and 2 years ago one on my butt.
Do be careful where you place them, some colours do swell and itch in the heat, lines fade in time, words go blurry.
You wont want a black blob!
Regrets? yes and no I like what I have but I wish I hadn't the one on my chest so obvious, up till I was 40 odd it was cool, coming up to 60 it looks silly, by the time i'm 70 It will be just plain stupid looking

There was a tatto convention in Hong Kong once...A Scottish guy wanted a slogan to do with Scotland above a thistle on his back...The Chinese tatto artist wasn't sure what a thistle looked like so the Scotsman, to the best of his ability, drew one. Now there's some guy walking round with SCOTLAND FOR EVER above a pineapple !

Only get a tattoo of a symbol or picture that is deeply meaningful and personal to you. You will be wearing this on your skin everyday for the rest of your life, its got to be an important thing otherwise its just graffitti.

You're Italian and want a tatoo on your foot...how about the Boot of Italy?

On your foot? That's strange. Anything to do with the reference of Italy being the boot of Europe? That's carrying your ethnicity pretty far.
