The end is nigh.

They've stopped buying VHSes...they still sell them, but their stock isn't what it used to be. I could easily find a good five-seven movies worth buying every I went there. When I found out they would no longer be buying VHSes, I went there and bled them dry.
That was one of the few places in Atlanta I could rely on for having a great VHS selection.

I'm really looking forward to the Lost Love flash book. I already have the Milton H Zeis: Tattooing As You Like It book and I think I'm more excited for Lost Love than I was the Zeis book.
Also, if anyone knows what movie is played in the video, please share...I've tried looking it up and came up with nothing.

Don't know if this has been posted yet, but this is probably my favorite version of RoA. I know it doesn't have that "wow factor" that more modern versions of this piece has, but I tend to gravitate more towards the old-school images.

Just out of curiosity--and I'm not being confrontational with this question or trying to dismiss your feelings--how exactly do you feel ripped off? I could see if someone was passing off a design/selling it as one of their own, but if someone gets that image tattooed on them, I don't really see it as the creator of said image being ripped off. I do understand that the tattoo artist is charging the person to tattoo that image on them, but they're charging the person for the work being done on them, not for the image itself. Now if a tattoo artist had someone else's design up on a wall w/o consent and was trying to pass it off as their own, then yeah, I could see where the feeling of being ripped off comes into play...but if an average Joe walks into a shop wanting to get an image tattooed on them, I don't really see it as ripping the artist off.
Now if the image is copyrighted and the tattoo artist still tattoos the image, then I completely understand where feeling ripped off comes into play...but if there is no copyright attached to a piece of work, there's really no way to enforce it.

Hello.
My name is Joshua. I'm not a tattoo artist, I just have a lot of tattoos and love the craft. I actually found out about this site through an interview that was done with one of the tattoo artists who's done most of my work--Jeremy Swed from Inksmith and Rogers. Once I started looking through the forum, I figured it would be a great thing to join, as there seemed to be a lot of like-minded individuals on here.
Aside from tattoos, music, traveling, Tim and Eric, VHS collecting(B-movies and such...nothing legit), and velvet paintings are some of my hobbies. I look forward to posting here and getting to know everyone.
Hosanna.
