S/C/G: tick'

Height: 5'8

Default Need tattoo help. Can't decide !

I know what I'm getting. The following verse:

"I can do all things through Him that strengthens me"

With an anchor underneath, on my thigh. Not quite on the side or the front of my thigh; right at the 'edge'. And it will be placed just under my 'short shorts' so it can be seen or covered by slightly longer shorts.

My issue ? Do I get it so that if you were standing looking at me that YOU could read it ? Or 'upside down' so that I can read it.

I'm stuck !

Since it is or you, I'd say upside down. My suggestion is write it on yourself with a permant marker. Try both ways.

I'm not a tattoo peron but if I ever thought of getting one, I'd want a way to test it out prior.

For other people to read. You'll know what it says when you look at it anyway.

I think I would put it so others can read it. You know what it says and just knowing it is there should be enough of a reminder.

Other people to read. If you want to show it off you would get a lot of weird looks if it were upside down. And might end up on the Tattoo Mistakes website

Get it whatever way you want - however it feels most meaningful and/or looks best to you. Your tattoo is for you and you're the one who has to live with it forever!

Thanks all ! Didn't think I get this many replies. I think I am going to get it so others can read it. It makes more sense and really, I do know it's there and I know what it says. I'm getting it thursday and I'm super excited !. Tattoo 34 coming right up
