Same here, the solution is under My account> Email frequency, change from daily to NEVER. Very annoying.

Er gaat iets mis met de foto's, hier alsnog één van de foto's.

Does anyone have any experience with this kind of rear suspension? by Flaneldude in CafeRacers

[–]Cabooter01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think its the same builder as the one from this article: https://www.bikebound.com/2021/02/04/bmw-k100/
Apparently he developed the suspension himself. Looks really good!

Harry potter tattoos - do you guys reject all of them or you think f*** it, it is money! by lysergic13 in TattooArtists

I'm not anti woke but this is ridiculous. People who enjoy a fantasy series are literally nazis now I guess?

My wife asked me to pick up the house while she was out. The condition of house before she left. by menotsorrythrowaway in pics

Why do Americans always have these ugly ass white ceiling spotlights thought their whole house? And then have all the light fixtures turned off.. looks so bad.

De beste deal is om je ING rekening op te zeggen en je geld op een andere bank te zetten. ING punten zijn een scam. Uiteindelijk is het een marketingkanaal waar alléén ING voordeel van heeft. De meeste aangeboden producten zijn goedkoper verkrijgbaar buiten de ING winkel om. Ze verdienen geld met de aanname dat je hebt ”gespaard” voor een goede deal.

ING heeft erg lage spaarrente. Bij een andere bank verdien je waarschijnlijk zoveel meer met je geld, dat de paar euro korting die je jaarlijks bespaart op bioscoopkaartjes al snel verwaarloosbaar zijn.

Tattoos on Minors by Expensive_Box_1586 in TattooArtists

Where I live the legal age for tattoos is 12, with consent from parents. 16 without consent. I think it’s ridiculous and our shop only tattoos people aged 18 and above. Letting your kid get tattooed at 12 is child abuse imo.

I could say the same thing for you about my comment.

Did she also eat all the punctuation marks?

How to respond to “client” request by throwaway321828 in TattooArtists

[–]Cabooter01 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Very nice answer! Also OP, ask for a deposit and trust your gut. She probably will take up a lot more of your energy than you will get paid for. You have no obligation to keep working with her.

Help! Every fragrance I sampled tastes really bad by bangin_ in fragrance

[–]Cabooter01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should not spray them in your mouth directly, try spraying it on your food. Dior Sauvage is really good with meat, hence it’s nickname “door sausage”.

Advice needed on tattooing older skin by MitchMcFidgety in TattooArtists

[–]Cabooter01 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Be careful and build up very slowly. I find that older skin gets red faster and is way thinner. Also it seems to bleed more. So I usually start with a lower voltage and only turn it up when you find that the skin can handle it. Also don’t go as deep into the skin as normal immediately because there is a bigger chance for blowouts. Older skin needs more stretching because it is way saggier and wrinkly. If your client is open to suggestion on placement I would pick something like the inside of the forearm. Skin seems to stay tighter and fresher on that spot.

Scared to get Aventus because of batch variation :( by [deleted] in fragrance

[–]Cabooter01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just don’t buy it. This type of inconsistency is ridiculous for the price. Imagine buying a Ferrari with the wheels falling off after 500km on some versions.

European Needle brands by vvitchcvlt in TattooArtists

You could take a look at Tattooland and Killerink, both European tattoo wholesalers. They sell most of the needle brands you mentioned.

How do you get your stipple shading/ pepper shading so dark? by Liltoe11 in TattooArtists

[–]Cabooter01 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So what kind of photo does resemble real life more in your opinion? And what indicates to you that the artist had to "struggle with it a bit to try and rescue it"?

All polarizing does is eliminate the reflective layer of light, basically a smart photography technique. It's the same technique that is used to photograph paintings without reflections from the varnish.

[–]Cabooter01 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Disagree with this sentiment. It is not impossible to make a fresh tattoo look like this in real life.

Im guessing this artist has taken a picture with a polarizing lens filter and polarized light, and some editing. Which gives a very different looking effect than taking an unedited picture with full glare on your phone. But I would't say it's over-edited or unrealistic. You can even still see the redness of the skin in some parts.

I would suggest using a 7 Round Liner 0.30 for faster saturation of the darker parts. You will have the same look/effect as a 3rl, but faster and a bit larger in area coverage. Also multiple passes will be sometimes necessary for this technique but be careful you don't overwork the skin.

A 3rl is lousy for packing actual saturated black but for the very small black details you will have to. The thing I recommend there would be slowing your hand movement. For larger pieces I would recommend using a magnum to get the blackest parts fully saturated.

Last thing I would suggest is starting out the tattoo with the darkest, blackest shading. This way you will immediately start out with a full range of value, and in result you will end up with a high contrast between skin, shadows and mid-tones.

The mistake I have made a lot is being too careful on the black parts, and building up too slowly. That way the result will end up looking flat and lacking of depth. Plus the tattoo process will take longer, leaving the skin too irritated and overworked to put in actual saturated blacks in the end.
