make money selling your Tattoo Designs online. This ones probably easier than you'd expect, so kick back and relax with Dr. Snot as we look into some ways to make some extra money with all those tattoos and pieces of flash art you've designed....
Instructions
1. Okay, first things first: get all your tattoo's together.
2. Now, you have a choice here -the 'safe' route or the 'not so safe' route. I strongly recommend the 'safe' route, which in this case is getting all your work copyrighted. Protecting your work is very important -however, if you don't really care about such things, you can just as well skip this step.
To save money on your copyrights, I would suggest (although I'm no lawyer or anything, so make sure you know exactly what you're doing) making a compilation of all your work rather than copyrighting each piece individually -that is, in the interest of saving tons of money.
3. Now, just go to tattoo websites and check the market out, see what places are offering for your work -likely evaluation will take place, not uncommon. And you may wish to go for places that offer royalties, that way you get paid anytime that tattoo sees any action.
Here are some sites that offer such tattoo services, I haven't given them a very indepth look yet -decide for yourself and look around alot before settling on a place to sell your tattoos -you don't wanna get stuck selling your hard work exclusively at one place for pennies a month....

http://www.tattoo-flash-art.com
Do a search on google or yahoo -you'll find tons of sites like these....
4. There are other methods though besides just selling your designs to another site, you can cut the middleman out and sell directly to your audience.
For instance, you can start your own website featuring your work and sell directly to those interested.
5. Another method -sell your designs on eBay! As a book -or designs individually. Use really nice large pictures -if people like them enough, they may buy them!
6. Yet another method -ask local tattooist if they would be interested in selling your tattoo designs.
7. Similarly, you could also offer a service where you design custom tattoos -these can take lots of time though, so make sure what you charge is truly worth your time.
8. One last way you can make money with your tattoo designs: Give them away for free on your own website, but put advertisements up so that you make money from traffic, clicks and affiliate sales -similar to functions of a blog (check out my other articles for more info)
9. Don't give up if things don't work out right away -keep at it!!!! If you have a love for designing tattoos and you put in alot of work -you'll succeed at some point!!!! Good luck!!!! Persevere!!!!
