I adore the online tattoo site Pr*ck Online and just had to share it with you. Unlike other 'traditional' tattoo sites, it has collected images together by artist and studio. This really works in bringing out the original style of the artists featured.
There are almost 6,000 pictures online at Pr*ck Online, and all of them are of the highest quality--even if they do feature random designs like a hamster holding a cut-off thumb.
Implications - As tattoos and other forms of body modification becomes more widely accepted in the mainstream, subculture groups seeking more inventive and unique forms of body art have emerged. Businesses can appeal to alternative markets by creating controversial and edgy ads and brand artwork. Bizarre and quirky designs will attract consumers and make a lasting impression on potential buyers.
