Smiley for a tattoo

Hi - I'm in the mood to get a little, subtle tattoo of an emoticon. I was wondering if people would like to recommend one - I had been thinking of a simple classic ;-} but maybe if there's something a bit more unique, it would work better. I'm not looking for bizarre or rude ones, mind...

What do you look like? Maybe you should consider getting one that resembles you? Consider: * personality What is your general mood? What characteristic would be the first to come to mind if someone asked about you? * physical looks. Glasses? Mustache? Funky hair? Or maybe even a characterchure (Sp?) My characterchure (Sp?) would probably be: 8 `.| p b h t i u o g g n e g e u y n e e o s s o e u t jenn -- ______________________________________________________________________ | The Web Page You Have Reached http://www.twpyhr.com | | Hundreds of telephone sounds and recordings, hundreds of telephone | | graphics, telephone related text and program files, scans, telecom | | news, phreaky/phoney clothing, Phoney Dance, Touch Tone Tunes FAQ. | '______________________________________________________________________' |::. | .. |::. | .. ...\ |::. | /... \\|::.___jSm|//

Personally I never really cared for smilies with a - nose in it .. the smaller version are both faster and cuter :) I also used to use this =) alot .. but I just realised while diddled on that very same smily that it's not a human smile .. its some sort of android .. check this diddles out : , _ \`. / ,(_| (= )--| _ /,' \ `(_| ` Ofcourse you still have to turn your head and I can make it walk too : , _ \`. / ,(_| (= )--| _ /,' \ `(_| ` , _ \`. / ,(_| (= )--| _ /,' \ `(_| ` , _ \`. / ,(_| (= )--| _ /,' \ `(_| ` Trying to rotate that 90 degrees failed , but I did create this nice mouse-head ,-=. ,=-. \ \-=-/ / `-. | | .-' `-"-' But doing a body for that failed at the first attempt .. meanwhile .. how about this : ,-=. ,=-. \ \-=-/ / `-. | | .-' `-"-' / \ CJ |-----| | | | _ | | |_) | | | | | | | | | _ | | |_ | | |_ | | | | | | __ | | / | | /_ | | | | | Pru|_____| '-------' A PEZ head !!!

I'm probably going to get it in Tusk, on Stukeley Street just off Drury Lane. I want it to be really subtle, so I'm going to get it in the same colour as my moles (I have hundreds). Only thing is, they have a minimum charge of 50 quid (they use new needles and stuff for everyone), so the receptionist told me I could have all sorts of other stuff done at the same time. Think I might go for a geek winky ;-] on one arm, and a treble clef (made out of a mole!) on the other arm.
got some other (more abstract) ones: [B^D guy wearing sunglasses and headphones (_8(|) Homer %-) ugly one =] "phrIIk" :*) clown or you tattoo a stick figure o_, /| /(
