If it were me, I'd get the Lonely Hearts Club Band logo. However, if I were you, I'd get it on my shoulder or pec.
Well yah, shoulder was another idea, but I don't want to have to go shirtless if I want to show someone, it'll just be there on my arm as a part of me, in the open. But who knows, still pondering shoulder. Or like, on my upper arm/shoulder

And I have another friend who wants to do the Sgt Pepper's one with me perhaps, might do the border in whatever color of suit we want. I'd be blue, Paul McCartney <3~
Don't.
They all seem like a bad idea.
Here's what you do: pick one and write it down somewhere. A year later, look at it again and see if you still want it. If not, you're obviously not ready for a tattoo.

Man, what a bunch of squares.

Choose. I personally wouldn't pick any because they're all stupid. Tattoos overall are stupid, bad ones are worse.
I'd like someone saying they're cliche to give an example of a tattoo that isn't cliche. I hear that in every single thread about tattoos and I really don't understand what would not be considered cliche. It just seems like a catchphrase now.
Nautical star on the wrist is possibly the most generic tattoo ever.
just use photoshop to pretend that you have a tattoo on facebook, it will yield the same results
[QUOTE=zydos;28796893]Yah, did that too really, been wanting the Abbey Road one for... god, a year or two atleast, so maybe that. Not sure entirely[/QUOTE]
Then I'd say you still have a problem. If you're still saying "maybe" and "not sure", you need more time to think.
It took me several years to go from "I think it might be cool to have a tattoo" to "I absolutely want this tattooed on my body for the rest of my life."
Use a perma marker for a little while, since you can actually get it off with baby oil and soap.
If you start to hate it, then you know the answer.
I personally hate tattoos.

If you actually had taste in music and saw someone walking down the street with that you'd go "Oh heh, yah I get it", but obviously you don't because you failed to see why I want the tattoo.

STORY TIME
My father was born in 1954, so he literally grew up with The Beatles. They're obviously his favorite band since the beginning. So when I was born, my father being Austrian and a professional skier for most of his life, he figured I should learn to ski. Whenever we would drive up to Whistler he would play this CD in the car with songs about a mustard man and sleeping. I was too young, but I remember thats what he always played on the way up. Years later I find out that he'd raised me on The Beatles, and I've always had a space for them next to my heart, their music was there for me when either parent wasn't.
[QUOTE=Jack_Thompson;28779717]Not only are those all cliche, they're all terrible for that area.
If you're going to get one, get Helter Skelter, but get it on your upper arm so you can cover it with a shirt sleeve
At 17 years old you might be saying you'll work nowhere that stuck up, but really how the fuck do you know where you'll end up in life?
I'll be getting a 1/3 sleeve on my upper left arm, and most of the world is never going to see it due to shirts, but I'm perfectly fine with that.
[editline]24th March 2011[/editline]
And yeah, I know a few people who have stars like that one, they all regret them.[/QUOTE]

if he wants a tattoo he will get a tattoo it's not very complicated

If I was crying I'd be telling you to stop being such an ignorant baldhead and go fuck yourself
Might do that now that you've got an attitude.

Don't do it man, you will regret it.
It is permenant. It will never go away... never.
If you love the Beatles, that is awesome, so go listen to their music. Why do you have to show everyone else that you like them. What do you care what they think?
And do you really love the beatles that much that you want to brand yourself for them? The Beatles are/were human man, they aren't some magical force that needs to be worshipped.
This is essentially what you would be doing to yourself if you went through with this, except it would be by choice. If that animal had a choice, I don't think it would choose what you are thinking about doing...

The name is capitalized, asshole
Because I want a forever reminder of something that means more to me than most other people, music in general. I don't want it to ever go away.

How can you compare it to branding, they're nothing alike. They mark you, but branding burns an image into your flesh and scars it. That's gross. Ink under skin = less ouch
And uhm, I don't know if you got the memo, The Beatles are a magical force

Why would you need to remind yourself of your love for music, it's not something your going to forget...
Branding and getting a tattoo are essentially the same act, sure one might hurt less, but you are still imprinting an image upon a body.
It's a part of my life, I want it to part of my body. Like [i]physically[/i] part of me. I'll sacrifice a patch of my body to cover with art, no problem.
[editline]25th March 2011[/editline]

Look dude, if you want a Beatles tattoo, get a Beatles tattoo. You don't have to convince anyone on FP that it's okay.

You could get the same effect by having a poster or a photograph of them in your room that you could look up at, your body is the only one you got, why use it as printing material? Use a canvas, or a wall...
And if you are female, that's even more of a reason not to get one, the female body is beautiful as it is.

Just trying to save you from looking like a retard in the future
Well thanks, but I'm not going to look like a retard with a Beatles tattoo, every other tattoo people get is usually one of those tribal bands around their arms. THAT'S retarded.
Well I've said all I got to say, hope I've convinced you to at least reconsider.
