hiii so i’m planning on getting a tattoo of a really cool tribal cross on my wrist. i want it to be just a simple black cross. but i have been noticing that most peoples tattoos that are supposed to be black appear to be blue, does anyone know why is this is. I dont want to walk around with a blue cross on my wrist, i just want it to be black! please someone help me!
I have black that looks black, not blue. After had it done I went back the following week and had it done again so it is dark black. I use sunscreen on it when I tan and still it is unmistakably black.
In need to find designs for names?

I love browsing that site for ideas. Hope that helps =)
what is the meaning and history behind them?
A general rule of thumb is: the shape of the design often determines the "meaning" of a knotwork design- triskele and trefoil shapes should be regarded as triskeles, bird, fish, and animal designs represent the attributes of the animal, etc. Circles represent unity or eternity, spirals reincarnation or cycles of life and rebirth, triangles and trefoils the threefold dominions of earth, sea, and sky. Squares or four-fold shapes are shield knots, symbols of protection from spirits or malevolent influence. Interlaced animals and men usually represent relationships, or emphasize the interdependence of mankind and nature.
The Celts themselves left very little in the way of records, and most symbols are interpreted by archaeologists and other scholars who study the symbols in context. Some ancient Celtic symbols have changed in meaning over time, having been influenced by the introduction of Christianity and the influence of other cultures.
