It all depends on what you want man. The crosses you posted are more of what I'd call "latin" crosses since that design is a lot more common among hispanics. You could go with a celtic cross or a traditional cross depending on the idea you want to convey. You have to remember that people will look at a tat as a representation of an idea and the design should be indicative of an idea rather than just a design. My ex did a great drawing of a cross laid over a heart that looked great and I'd considered getting it as a tat...but since I'm not religious I decided against it. I'd find a friend that's artistic and describe what you want and see what they draw. If you don't have any artistic friends, let me know. My roommate (and best friend of 10+ years) is an art major and an incredible artist that would probably make something wicked cool for you.

I guess the latin cross is more of my style. That's kind of what I'm looking for. Celtic crosses I'm not that big of a fan of. I do like them, but I know I don't want one on my body. The traditional cross I was thinking of, but honestly. I think that would wear on me to no end. I want something with a little more design and shape, and the latin crosses seem to suit my needs the best. The tat is a representation of something that went on in my life. It's not just the design that I'm looking for. I do think that tattoo's should hold some meaning and not be empty. It's also the meaning behind it for me, and why I'm getting it.

Definately get what you want man. I think the hands with the cross is kind of cool looking, but custom is the way to go if you know someone with some artistic talent.

yeah the hands is cool....i would change it, and add my own little twist onto it. It'll defiantley be my own creation...but a little bit of help never hurt...and input is great.

If you're still looking for a cross design I have one in my notebook.. It was the cross in the chapel at Ft. Jackson in reception.. I can draw it up in photoshop or something and show you if you're interested.. It's something I planned on getting tattooed on me

[KwikR6]

I'm open to ideas...lets see
