The Tattooed Community No one known exactly how long the institution of tattooing has been in place, but you can be certain it’s here to stay. While there’s always going to be some sort of stigma attached to permanent body art, its social acceptance has been revolving for decades.
 
Some people have gotten inked to be in and some have done so to settle the fact that they are out. Whether it be out of the closet, out of cash, out of love, out of luck or out of time, one thing is for certain, they are definitely out of mainstream society. Over time, inked outcasts have formed a community of their own, and they’re everywhere. There are numerous chat rooms, forums, discussion groups, books, magazines and Web sites devoted to body art. They’ve even carved a niche into reality TV. If you want to join the club, or just want to voyeur into that word for a bit, here’s a list of places to start: > Everytattoo.com – has all things tattoo, including: online forums, links to magazines, flash and other resources. You can read about other people’s tattooing experiences and tell your own. You can even upload pictures of your own ink and share your story with people who get you. > TATTOO magazine – is currently the world’s best selling tattoo-related magazine (amazon.com). It features profiles on tattooist and shops all over the world, showcases the work they’ve done and fills you in on the latest trends and what’s new in the industry. > Miami Ink – A reality TV show, obviously based in a Miami tattoo parlor, that does a good job of showing the everyday goings on of at tattoo artist’s work.

Anyone and everyone can upload a picture of their body art and post it on this site to be graded on a scale of one to 10 by total stranger. It’s a fun way to see the highs and lows of tattooing and the beautiful and sometimes bizarre designs people come up with. > Vanishingtattoo.com – Possibly the most comprehensive tattoo site on the Web. It has tons of links, a glossary of related terms, tattoo trivia, a fun quiz to test you tattoo knowledge and a lot more. Definitely set aside some time to check out this site.
