Tattoos

Does having them mean you can't compete or do you lose points? ---------------------------- And my soul must be iron, because my fear is naked. I'm naked and fearless.

I think you should read the rules and regs for whatever competition you are wanting to enter, and see what each company allows. -------------- "Do not try. Do. Or do not. There is no try" --Yoda

Oh yes, lots of competors have tattoos. -------------- - Nina :o) La vie est toujours aussi belle.....

I mean how are you supposed to get rid or cover them up... There was a competition around campus a little while ago.. the guy who won it I guess had a really big tatoo on his arm.. but that was like a charity thing so I guess it really didn't matter...
