Heya!
So, I would like to get a tattoo, mainly something Apple related. I was thinking a nice "Here's to the Crazy Ones" going somewhere on my back, but than realized, I can't draw, and I want an Apple fan drawing it, not a tattoo artist.
Here's my thought... Is it possible to have an apple logo with here's to the crazy ones written on the apple?
Ideas? Drawings? Thoughts?

-i will pay the person for artwork, if i so decide to get that tattoo done.
As someone with several tattoos, I would very strongly suggest that you think long and hard about an Apple tattoo. While it seems like a great idea at the moment, I am assuming that you are young, and nifty tattoos of things like Apple logos and sayings may not be something you value as much in 20 years. Remember, for all practical purposes, tattos are forever. Yes, one can have laser removal, but getting a tat with the idea that one might want to have it removed is not, IMO, a sterling idea.
It's important to say that, as one who has tattoos, I have absolutely no problem with one deciding to get some ink. A couple of suggestions, along with the caveat above...most important, do a bunch of reading, both pro and con, about tattoos. Second, do an inspection of the tattoo studio before making an appointment and carefully examine their sterilization procedures (information about what to look for can be found online). Third, have a meeting with the artist you select prior to your appointment to discuss the artwork you select. You may get someone to create artwork you like, but the tattoo artist should be consulted so your artwork, and any problems it presents, can be clarified.
Finally, the location of your ink. I strongly suggest that you not have it anywhere that shows when you are dressed for work...it could be a problem at worst, an embarrassment at least. Also, aftercare with a tat is as important a procedure to avoid infection or other problems as the proper sterile proceduresa used by the artist doing your tattoo. If you are going to get the the tat somewhere on your body that you can't easily reach for proper care for the week to 10 days of healing, there must be someone there 2-3 times a day for careful aftercare.
I love my tats, which were selected because I liked the aesthetics of the design, but with no other particular significance. I enjoy seeing then every morning after getting out of the shower and brushing my teeth, etc. But be smart, think this decision over carefully, do A LOT of reading, and be aware that your ideas about things will change over time.
BTW: I had my first tat done at the age of 66...I thought it over a LONG time!
