Obviously you want to be different and unique, or you wouldn’t be considering a tattoo in the first place, but symbols tattoos are definitely the way to go! Not only are they becoming increasingly more popular, they’re also the best tattoo design to express your individual personality. Whether you’re interested in Chinese symbol tattoos, Japanese tattoo symbols, native american tattoos, tribal art tattoos or more original designs for tattoos, you’ve come to the right place!

There are so many symbols tattoos out there to choose from, and each one can be altered to your own specific taste. You can add a line here and there, remove a line or two, take two designs you like and combine them, etc. The possibilities are endless. Symbols tattoos are also an easy way to say what you want, without anybody knowing what it really says.  Only you will know it’s meaning.  Either you can share it, or keep it to yourself and appear that much more mysterious.

Between the free symbols tattoos I will show you here (I will be adding to the site shortly) and the links on this site, you should be able to find something that’s perfect for you. Don’t be a slave to tradition.  Go your own way!  Express yourself with symbols and free your soul!

Your search for cross tattoos doesn’t end at Google with “tattoos crosses“, that’s where it just begins.  A search is just that, a search.  You’re searching for YOUR tattoo, not a tattoo someone else wanted.  Find a few that you like, and alter them.  If you find one that’s SORT of what you’re looking for, take it to the tattoo artist and say “I like this, but I want it to be more like THIS…” and he’ll draw something up for you.  Or look for ideas somewhere else.  Maybe search for pictures of graveyards, tombstones, or even churches and look at the crosses they have on or in their buildings and print THAT out.

After watching the movie Passion of the Christ, I decided to check into cross tattoos, but I couldn’t find anything that fit me.  One day I was in a Harley shop, and I found an awesome silver cross necklace that was made out of tribal flames.  I bought it, took it down to the tattoo artist and said “I want this, but I want the top flame lengthened to match the bottom one, I want it in blue and fading out to white, I want the smaller flames in yellow and orange, and instead of the circle in the middle, I want a pink heart.  This is my result…a custom tattoo that nobody else has (yet).  LOL

Every weekend in the summer there are different things going on in Toronto. One of the festivals that has been gaining popularity is Torontos BuskerFest, a festival of street performers that is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. Sponsored by Scotiabank, the festival raises funds for the Toronto Epilepsy Foundation, so it all goes to a good cause.

To catch some of these interesting performances I went downtown on August 28, 2009 to Torontos historic St. Lawrence Neighbourhood. Front Street was blocked off between Yonge Street and Lower Jarvis Street and people were milling about, checking out the action. 8 stages had been set up and more than 100 performers were scheduled for the evening, hailing from countries including Canada, the United States, Great Britain, German, Japan, Portugal, Australia and Newzealand.

Stands selling food, clothing and jewellery were set up in the middle of the street; kids were getting their faces painted; temporary tattoos were being applied; everything was set for an evening of fun. Upon entering from Jarvis Street I was greeted by the mysterious sounds of didgeridoos provided by Matt James from Australia. Stiltwalkers stalked through the crowd, Silver Elvis attracted lots of photographers, sidewalk chalk drawings were coming to life. I caught several acts, including the Fast Horses a family of native American performers whose two young children are very comfortable in front of a large audience. Dado, a German based mime and clown, was putting on a great show for the kids and adults alike with his props and physical comedy. Walking further west, I stopped and watched Magic Brian, who offered a very entertaining act, breaking out of a straightjacket and chains with an entertaining element of audience participation.

As my parking meter was running out I had to wait to see the climactic end of Magic Brians act and then sprint back to my parking spot to refill the meter. Although I was 20 minutes late, I was fortunate not to have received a ticket. I headed back to the festival and caught some of Dr. Draws musical performance. This gifted violinist and his band are audience favourites, wherever they play.

As it got dark I watched Trulee Odd eating fire, do interesting stunts on his elevated unicycle and juggle sharp knives on one wheel up high. During my walkabout afterwards I caught the end of Circus Orange, who were setting up a grand finale with their humongous fire-spewing tricyle, steered by Foo the Clown, who was wheeling the hot, fiery and fuming vehicle east on Front Street, the definite highlight of the evening.

I even headed down on Saturday and caught a few more acts. I caught the beginning of Trulee Odds routine when he rode in on his miniature motorbike and enjoyed Scott Jackson, the human beatbox, who was replicating songs and rhythms perfectly without the use of any instruments. Skydreams were showing off their aerial acrobatics and Fesso and Lu served up an entertaining comical act including aerial and ground acrobatics.

It was impossible to catch even a small portion of the performers at the 2009 Buskerfest, one more reason to return next year.

What are some famous words or sayings for a tattoo? I’m trying to find either a good site or just good quotes to look through or words. I want a textual tattoo.

i like these:

We will all laugh at gilded butterflies…
Think outside the box.
Mes pensées créent mon monde-French for my thoughts create my world
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another. ~William Shakespeare
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else. ~Judy Garland

Be what you are. This is the first step toward becoming better than you are. ~Julius Charles Hare

You must have control of the authorship of your own destiny. The pen that writes your life story must be held in your own hand. ~Irene C. Kassorla

You were born an original. Don’t die a copy. ~John Mason

It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not. ~Andre Gide
Once conform, once do what others do because they do it, and a kind of lethargy steals over all the finer senses of the soul. ~Michel Eyquem de Montaigne
You’ll never see the stars if you are always looking down.
You can’t defeat your Fears if you don’t put up with the Tears!

One’s real life is often the life that one does not lead. ~Oscar Wilde
Being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect. It means that you’ve decided to look beyond the imperfections.
For it was not into my ear you whispered, but into my heart. It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul.
There comes a time when you have to stand up and shout: This is me damn it! I look the way I look, think the way I think, feel the way I feel, love the way I love! I am a whole complex package. Take me… or leave me. Accept me – or walk away! Do not try to make me feel like less of a person, just because I don’t fit your idea of who I should be and don’t try to change me to fit your mold. If I need to change, I alone will make that decision. When you are strong enough to love yourself 100%, good and bad – you will be amazed at the opportunities that life presents you. -Stacey Charter

Always be yourself because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
If you’re waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you’ll surely regret this day.

I’m looking to find a really good site that discusses different tattoo designs, older and newer, where they originated from, styles and artists – anyone got any ideas for good sites?

I’m thinking about getting my first tattoo, and I would like it to be some kind of anti-hate design. I am new to this and don’t really know where to find designs and I don’t have a good enough imagination to make my own. Any suggestions?

Coexist, but with a rainbow over it as well…thats definately anti-hate
