You're most welcome. Nice to be able to help somebody else for a change . . . I recieve so much from everyone else.

If you can't print that page from the web maybe you could save it on a cd or thumb drive & take it to your tattoo artist? A lot of those folks should be pretty savvy when it comes to graphics & should be able to find a way to print it.

You know that is a pretty nice pic . . . maybe I should get a tattoo too . . . ha!

be sure & send us up a pic after you get inked!

Re: strange request for a pic !

I'm a big Coen brothers fan

Re: strange request for a pic !

lol , im a fan too but my screen name is my real name Brian Fink , shouldnt be a prob getting the art work to my artist , we can print it right in the shop . its going to have to be re-sized anyway and prob add a few changes to make it look more like my truck (loose the stock mirrors , hood emblem) im going to try to make it work with an old rt 66 sign behind it , maybe some outher things . good thing my tattoo guy is not only a good friend but a hotrodder/harley type guy . thanks again ! post pics as soon as the deed is done
