Cross tattoos and other popular design are available online, which makes picking out a design a hell of a lot easier than shopping shop to shop, artist to artist. If you are looking for free ideas, I highly recommend you check out Chopper Tattoos (www.chopper-tattoo.com). It's a gallery site where you can get design ideas. Be it dragonfly ideas, zodiac ideas, or other types of tattoo ideas which you can elaborate on, you can be sure to find them on their site.
As exciting as getting a tattoo can be, it can also be extremely frustrating. There are so many designs out there, it can be hard to decide on one. Some people have an idea of what they want but can't find any images to match it. Sites like Chopper Tattoo make this process a little bit easier. Let's say you want a cross design, but you don't know exactly how big, or what kind of cross. You can log onto Chopper Tattoo and browse all sorts of design. Then, you can pick out as many as you like to take to a artist. You can take more than one, and use ideas from all of them, combined into one unique design.
The greatest place to start getting ideas is from listing the things that you like. Tattoos are permanent and so it's very important to make sure that it says something about you, your personality, and what you love. Something that has special symbolism to you is a great idea. If you take a minute and just think about what is important to you, you're likely to come up with some great design ideas! If not, scrolling through the many designs you can find online may inspire you. Sites like Copper Tattoos have large collections of cross tattoos and other designs online, and you can download and print them as well.
Once you have a general idea of what it is you want, be it a message, a symbol, or a - you can go online to sites such as Chopper Tattoo and look through clipart to find an image of what you want.

You may find some actual photos this way too and those are a great aid in your design search! Using your own ideas and the clipart, try to sketch out a rough drawing of what it is you want. Even if you are not all that artistic, the body artist will have a much better idea of what it is you are after. Take all of your materials with you when you go to the parlor. Many artists will then give you a design on paper with lines, color, and shading to give both of you a better idea of what the design will look like.
Deciding on the right design may take a long time, however it's important to remember that it's a lifelong decision, that may only be reversed with expensive laser surgery. SO make sure you pick a design that represents you, and what you will love for the rest of your life. If you pick something that really only pertains to your current self, but may not be relevant for your future self, it's best to hold off on that design. However, for example, if you are a Christian and you know you will always be, a cross tattoo is probably a safe bet.
