Ever thought about getting a tattoo? How about an Apple logo tattoo. The idea had never crossed my mind, but I saw someone walking down the street with one today. It got me thinking… Is that common? When I got home I did a quick search on Google and found that it was more common that I thought! Flickr turned up a bunch of results as well. I even found sites dedicated to people with Apple tattoos.
- The Apple Collection
- Revenge of the Tattooed Nerds (not all Apple tattoos)
- Apple Tattoos
I don’t know why or how, but it inspired me a bit. After an hour or so I had created this!
Small: 400 x 480
Medium: 625 x 750
Large: 2000 x 2400
Neat eh? I still don’t think that I could permanently inscribe my love for Apple in my skin. A big high five to those that have. Your devotion to your brand of choice is amazing!
The tattoos in the image are mostly Apple logo’s with power button icons, sad face macs, and one startup screen image mixed in. I tried to only include one image from each person in the picture, but after a while one black Apple logo started to look the same as another :)
One neat trick I learned tonight was that if you type shift+option+k in a text editor most standard fonts will display an Apple logo. By using that trick and pumping the font size up to 1200 I was able to get my high res Apple logo.
If you found this interesting and you own/use a mac check out the 100 Apple Users/Switchers Collage thats still in the works.

Thanks for the links Nick. Those people are definitely hardcore Apple fans!
They are way more hardcore than anyone I know. I guess it gives the rest of us something to aspire to!
Really liked this post and thought my visitors would like to check them out too!

Cool, thanks for the post Mike :)
I couldn’t believe how many people I could find that had Apple tattoos. When I first started searching I thought that I might run across a half dozen or so. But I ended up finding over 100 and had to limit the amount I put in the collage.
