I've been putting off finding an actual artist because the idea of hunting up someone who can do something like I'm thinking of intimidates the hell out of me. Full disclosure my husband and I want a matching pair of relatively small tattoos in the style I've seen called sumi-e or inkwash painting.

I'm a mess, but there's so little to be able to point at and say "see, I'm not crazy, it's not just me" At any rate, the story, for your amusement.

Penguinland has been brought on as moderator to assist in livening this place up. Here's hoping it's all awesome from here on out!

Your mod here, I've been called on my disappearing act, please consider me thoroughly chastised. Meanwhile! Several items of business need your consideration, as you are the folks this community was meant for.

First, does anyone have any reason to object to me adding another moderator who may well be able to help keep things more lively? Also, I have someone in mind, but would anyone else like to volunteer and make their case as to why they would be a great help?

Second, I'd like to ask again if anyone has suggestions for flair, because I would like to have more variety, but I'd like it to be variety you'd actually want.

Third, does anyone have opinions on whether or not we should have an
