I'm looking for a good piece of art to be used as a tattoo to help bring awareness to friends and colleagues that ask about the tattoo. Any suggestions/posts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you seen these pics at CH.com t-shirts? Would they be any help?

I don't recall who designed them, but ch.com users anyway.
Best wishes,
Sanna

I can't post pics here, so can anyone post a pic of Jonnys arm? The one with O.U.C.H logo on it.

On the "Getting To Know You" (newby) board, the fixed thread at the top, "Who is here for the newcomers", Page 2, third or fourth post is Jonny's arm. OUCH comes across real good but the excellent other detail below is hard to see well.

I've designed (preliminary) a tattoo that think I'm pretty happy with. As I don't know how to post a photo here, I have forwarded it to BobP. I have incorporated his art as well as O.U.C.H. and ClusterHeadache.com items into the tattoo. Is copyright infringement an issue with tattoos?? With anyone, and everyone's permission, I am seriously considering going ahead with this tattoo, or at least something similar. At this time I have a Native American armband on my right arm, and the rose and mask from Phantom of the Opera on my left shoulder.
Any suggestions as to a good location for this new piece of art? As it's related to headaches, I considered my forehead, but that seems a bit much!!!!
I look forward to everyone's feedback.
Wishing you all many pain free days and nights.

Trasher, it's not my art. It's JD's. Chewy was asking for a link to his site and I had it bookmarked.

Great stuff JD. I hope the tat you design Trasher gets posted.
Closest thing I ever saw that I could say resembled the beast was album cover art from a Nazereth release called No Mean City.

Jonny appears to be a man wise beyond his years. Thanks for the help.
Next question - where do you suggest I get the tattoo? I have the Native American band on my right arms, and a Phantom of the Opera on my left shoulder. I'm considering my calf, maybe even my thigh.
This is not a tattoo that I want to hide, but at the same time, I don't think I'm quite ready to go for something like my neck.
I'd be very interested to hear everyone's suggestions.

What about at the top, between the shoulder blades and just below the bottom of your neck?
BTW, Jonny is just full of ink and OLD, that's all.

That might not be a bad idea. Depending on the size I choose, it could possibly conflict with an exhisting tatoo on my shoulder, but I certainly appreciate the suggestion, and will give it some consideration.
I'm probably going to "flip" the image, as it is always my left side that has the CH. I will most likely drop most of the wording as suggested by Jonny. I think that I will completely eliminate the words "Together We Fight" as well as the "ClusterHeadaches.com" words and logo.
I would still like to incorporate the "O.U.C.H." somewhere, probably at the base of the neck.
I've decided however, that I will probably have the CH.com emblem Ta2d perhaps on my inner forearm.
I'm still inclined to think my calf is the spot for the other one, but am certainly still interested in suggestions.
Thanks for your input Melissa

Back of the calf would be great, another good place to put it may be the outside of your thigh.I have seen some great work and easily displayed with shorts!
Good luck
Andrea
btw I like Mel's idea too, base of the neck and between shoulders too!!!
