    nice idea, but, i think it would be better to use all black as tattoos fade over time & after a while it would dark blue as tats do

    this pic is kinda what i was thinking, but ignore the background as it only seems to work as bmp i tried png because it supports transparency but it didn't work

    anymore ideas ?

    Hehe as much as I dislike tattoos, the GNU logo is a pretty cool idea, in a nerdy sort of way :D

    I wouldn't fancy having to explain to people what it was though ;)

    Stupid idea: shave the hair off your head (if you're not already bald), and have the Intel Inside logo tattoo!! lol

    i thought so & thank you for your input as a non tattoo liker
    it wouldn't need explaining to some people worldwide
    no, a stupid idea would be the have "I Love M$" tattooed on my forehead

    BTW: i'm not bald, i actually have short sometimes spikey light brown hair[ot]when its clean, bet you cant guess i'm single[/ot]

    You could always go one step further by getting Richard Stallman's face tatooed on your back :)

    Oh wow, that's creepy!

    If it was me, and I was planning on getting something like the GNU tattooed on my body, I would work it in to a larger piece of art. If you just get the GNU logo inked on all by itself, you'll look like a scratch pad with a logo stamped on your body.

    Or if you like Apple, you could get the face of Steve Jobs on your back :chk:

    well he's not exactly the most attractive man on the planet, for those who don't know here's his wiki page
    :agree:
    as nice as that would be, i am restricted by funds, so, the smaller the better
    i prefer linux because it's a free OS, & generally running an apple is expensive especially if you have problem

    Agreed. Plus, who wants a tattoo of a WASP with a black turtleneck on their back? I'd just as soon get "Virgin 4 Life" tattooed across mine :chk:

    ok, i've just stopped laughing enough to type a reply[ot]but, i've never actually used a MAC, but, i remember fixing one once, something about it not ejecting a floppy when a button on the KB was pressed, that was about 12 - 15 years ago[/ot]do all nerds have a brutal sense of humour ?

    because, i've found i'm erm erm erm Unique with my sense of humour, but, obviously there are exceptions, but, i usually always start it

    Hold the phone!
    If you are getting a free OS tattoo, surely you should tattoo yourself, while sitting in front of your PC, getting advices from mailing lists or a WIKI.... :chk:

    How about

    tattooing myself would not be a good idea, i correct many typos before i submit the post, & tattooists are not like hairdressers & shopping, you can't just get one delivered

    not bad, but the tat would fade over time, that's why i want a black only tat, nice pic though

    All tattoos fade over time; it's not as if you can't get them retouched when they do. :)

    P.S. - That Debian beer label is sweet.

    Better yet: imitate Mount Rushmore by having some of the big guys in computing as the tat.

    Stallman, Jobs, Gates, Torvalds (Mr. 'No, I didn't name this OS after myself')

    well i have 1, but i want another

    no, probably the GNU logo, because it will be recognized worldwide only by the people of *nix, i know windoze users can compile source code to win32 or 64 but i bet very few actually do, but, i'm in no rush

    i'm thinking about either reworking my original tat or maybe having the new 1 on the top of my left arm or maybe on the back of my shoulder, not sure which shoulder

    wher have you been mega[ot]donkey gives mega a big (non gay) hug[/ot]
