CheckOutMyInk.com - A Social Network for Tattoo Lover

Want to get a tattoo, but stumped for that unique design you’ll have with you for the rest of your life? Find inspiration at CheckOutMyInk. It’s a social networking community based on tattoos and tattoo lovers. You can post pictures of your own body art, comment on others’, add your tattoo-loving friends, and get ideas for your next ink session. You can search the database for a specific tag to find images of what you are looking for. If you want to browse a specific genre of tattoos, you can peruse the categories, such as Asian/Chinese, color, fantasy, religious, and more. Each member has a profile where they can introduce themselves, display their uploaded pictures, list all the comments they’ve given and received, and receive messages on their wall from friends. If you have a question specific to how to deal with your new tattoo or where’s the least painful place to get one, you can ask other site members in the forum. If you’re a tattoo lover or trying to find inspiration for a new design, head over to CheckOutMyInk.

 
  In their own words  

"We are a group of tattoo enthusiasts who could not find a good tattoo site that did not charge money. So we decided to build one ourselves.

Our main goal is to have a free site where people can store their pics online and search for tattoos pics, and at the same time, help build a community.

We also want to help tattoo artists and shops promote themselves and show off some of their amazing works."

  Why it might be a killer  

Generally sites displaying pictures of tattoos are covered with ads, difficult to sort through, and just plain ugly. This makes browsing through tattoos and displaying your own a web2.0 experience with an attractive interface, easy browsing, and a social network of friends. Anyone who’s into tattoos will enjoy this site.

  Some questions  

Could they maybe post a directory as to tattoo parlors, where they are located, which are the best, and what the average price is to expect for that area? This could be great for making a profit from advertising.

True words from a scratcher."i really dont care what some people say negatively about the site because the ink is already on people's bodies"And lets not say what kind of other stuff might be in there body now because someone tattooed them with dirty insturments at thier kitchen table...and a site like this just promoting them to do it.STAY STRONG FOR YOUR ILLEGAL CAUSE!

All I see is a bunch of unprofessional tattoos, and a bunch of scratchers trying to get tips to help them ILLEGALLY tattoo. It seems like on big boys club... I give them a -1

I love this site ,its a great site to see tattoos and everybody knows if you have them you like to look at them, but as far as nice people to chat with , could'nt tell ya , been a member for about a month yet to find anyone willing to chat, have more conversations with people in internet games. seems like members just get a charge from seeing how many they can add to their list and dont really care to meet or chat with them just want to boost thier friends list numbers. or maybe its just me LOL
