Hard to know for sure what you like but here are some ideas.....

Maybe it's just me but "tribal" is overdone. Especially if you don't even have a reason to get one. Maybe you should consider something that "means" something to you. Good luck finding that special art that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

I couldn't agree more!

Yes, I agree as well.  Get something that means something to you, not something that is "cool".  I'm a believer that if you have to ask others what kind of tattoo to get, then maybe you should not get it.  It's with you forever.  I want to get another one, but don't really know what to get.  So I'll wait until I figure out something that symbolizes a part of my life.

That's just my $.02.

I think tribal flash is garbage, however a lot of the hand drawn tribal can be quite stunning.

This is great advice........ all three of my tats have special meaning to ME....as will any others that I get.

Letting someone else choose or suggest your tattoo is a mistake.

And I agree that tribal is WAY overdone...............

[aleutiancowboy]

I would have to agree totally with all of you. I do like to scribble out tribal designs for fun but it is overdone. But it being overdone is what keeps me scribbling out designs.

I couldn't agree more.  My wife just got her 4th and 5th, and they have special significance to her.  I want another one, too, but can't find what is right.  I'm not going to get one just to do it...it has to have a deep meaning to me.

How about having the date you went SLY inked on your skin?

The best bet is to find a really good artist, tell him about yourself and what you like, and then have him design something for you.  I made the mistake of drawing my own.  It looks okay, but I am going to have a real artist add to it and cover some of it, this winter.
