Old west is like the old west font, you know like the one on your computer.
About the fading-would I really have to worry about it that much since it would be on my back and would be covered by a shirt most of the time.
No...... but all tattoos will fade some with time.........
Just remember that the sun is not a tattoo's friend. It will cause the tat to fade. Also remember, that in time a tattoo will blur at the edges. This is the voice of experience speaking!
I got it today. I didnt want to spend tons of money on it right now. I got it 1/2" tall by 3" long, its black and they didnt have old west font, I forgot the name of the font I got. But it was only $20. It took like 5 minutes and didnt hurt much at all, kinda stung alittle. The feeling reminded me of getting scratched by a thorn bush. I think I am hooked, I am already planning my next one. I cant get photobucket to work for me today but the pics are on my facebook. Here is the link.

The tat looks good. I like the font... it's different than the 'norm' that you see everywhere.
Thanks. It stood out to me, it reminds me of a mix of celtic style and the early printer fonts. I already have my next one picked out, I am thinking of an old fashioned rooster, I want it to look like an Indian Red Junglefowl or something similar to that. So maybe next tuesday, lol.
