As the title says, so shall you do. ^_^
Try to keep from stretching the page. If the image is too large, just link it instead. Any page-stretching will have that post removed, and you'll be asked to either resubmit your images in a smaller format, or link them instead.
Also, please include a little description of the tattoos, such as what it means, when you got it done, where you got it done, who did it, etc. Whatever you feel is relevant.

My first tattoo: My western zodiac, Aquarius, with tribal behind it. Done by Mic at the now defunct Fusions Tattoo in Enumclaw, Washington when I was about 19.  My eastern zodiac, the Tiger. Done by J at Ancient's Arts Tattoo in Renton, Washington when I was about 22.  My backpiece, no real meaning other than a very dear friend designed it for me when we were in high school. Done by Jaq at Apocalypse Tattoo in Seattle, Washington when I was about 21.  Forearm kanji, "arrow" on the left and "bow" on the right. Signifies my 20+ years as an archer. Done by Mic at Fusions Tattoo in Enumclaw, Washington when I was maybe 20.  Sleeve project. Done by the amazing Tor of Ancient's Arts Tattoo in Renton, Washington. Started about a year and a half ago. Lanterns represent the Japanese sending ceremony. Each lantern represents a soul who's passed that year, and they're supposed to follow the lights past a bend in a river or stream to the afterlife. Torii gate represents the gateway between our world, and the world of the dead. Cherry blossoms remind us of the shortness and delicacy, but also the beauty and fragility of life itself. She is Hell Girl, the one who takes you through the Torii Gate to the afterlife. (A little disclaimer: her face is NOT crooked or uneven. I've seen it myself, and everyone else sees it. It's just that in order to get a good picture, I had to twist my arm around, distorting her face. Again, it IS even, just the camera lies.)      Everybody loves fresh tattoo pictures. Done this past December 2010. Leopard rosettes by Lance at Pierced Hearts in Seattle. Will be getting "natural" leopard colors, mostly browns, golds, and oranges later.

 my first tattoo ever. its a baby owl because when i was little everyone use to say i looked like an owl and it was kinda an ongoing nick name through highschool. plus i read somewhere where owls ward off evils.  tattoo on my ribs i got for my dad. there's a quote that goes along with it that i plan to get around it when i get enough money. my dad always use to tell me "I love you all the way to the moon and back." and i will always remember him telling me that. When he passed away in september, i wanted something that would remind me off him permanently and i immediately thought of that quote. the pain that i went through getting this will never amount to the pain he suffered, but i like to think it shows him how much i love him. i hope one day to get his portrait somewhere too.

I got my right wrist tattooed on August (Friday) 13th of 2010. Yes, it was Friday the 13th, but, very lucky on my end! It means 'love' in Kanji. I always wanted to get this tattoo because love means a lot to me, even though I may not act like it. This picture was taken about 2-4 days after the tattoo was done, if I remember correctly.

(Yes, it's the only one I have currently.)

 My first tattoo. My friend and shop owner did it. I came in with a very stylized drawing of a black widow but I let him talk me into doing a more realistic one instead. Most of the ink came out when it was healing and the abdomen is a little misshapen because my friend only has one hand and had to stretch my skin with his stump. I like it though.
I have a sparrow on my chest that is best seen in this picture. I'm not sure how to resolve the chest plate I want or just leave it alone, so I didn't get it shaded or coloured.
 I got this about a month ago. I was working as a receptionist in a shop and there were no clients and we were B O R E D, so one of the new guys did this. It's Vulcan calligraphy.
I'd have more, but I'm very picky about the artists I want to go to. None of the tattoos I have, however really reflect that desire as they are, in my eyes, sub par, but it's a learning experience and I wouldn't change that. I want more, but for me I have to plan out an entire area before I work on it. Incorporating random tattoos into some kind of cohesion seems very sloppy and not my style.

This piece is a whopping twelve inches, on the outside of my thigh by my bum. I designed it myself, and I'm absolutely thrilled with how it came out.

This is my latest one I got in Nov. 2010. Hurt a bit more than I thought it would. whee Excuse the glare & redness, this was after it was just done.  For my son that I miscarried.

The morning after I had it done; This is my tattoo. It's AURYN from The Neverending Story. I got it back in March of 2011. The picture was taken roughly 5 days after I got it done. The two snakes represent the two worlds; the fantasy world and the real world, and this tattoo is to remind myself that you need a little bit of realism and fantasy in your life to keep things interesting, but there needs to be a balance.
