Well, for the past month and a half I've been running the Tattoo Story Contest, and this was my final week.
@girlbeforemirror has steeped up to continue running this contest, so please follow her and give her a warm welcome with some awesome entries.
Here are the official entries from last week:
CO2 by @pharnal
To Punish & Enslave by @dariafarux
Learning to Love (The Hard Way) by @lscottphotos
Tears of the Dragon by @meesterboom
Judging this contest has always been the hardest part for me, so I rely heavily on my guest judge to help.
Thankfully, this week I had two; @amy-goodrich, our winner from last week, and @girlbeforemirror, who will be taking this contest over.
Still, it was very hard to determine who the winner would be, and who the runners up should be as well.
HERE WAS THE FINAL DECISION:
And the Winner is....

A very special honorable mention to @dariafarux.
The 7th week of the Tattoo Story Contest is now underway, and here are the "old" official rules (to the best of my knowledge - check for posts from @girlbeforemirror, because things are subject to change now that it is no longer my contest :
Take a current photo of the tattoo that you are entering. (This should be YOUR tattoo, not a friends or one posted on the internet.)
To verify your entry, display a sheet of paper with “Tattoo Story Contest Entry” written on it next to the tattoo in the photo. (Again, G rated only)
Only one entry per week per user will be considered, save the other tats for another week.
Write up the story behind your tattoo; you don’t even have to like the tattoo anymore to enter.
Name your post Tattoo Story Contest Entry along with whatever else you want to call it.
Post the verified photo with the story in #tattoostorycontest & #contest.
Post your entry prior to Saturday at Midnight CST.
Thanks to everyone for allowing me the pleasure of running this contest.
I've met a lot of great steemians because of it and have enjoyed it.
Again, please warmly welcome @girlbeforemirror in as the new person in charge, and enjoy the contest as it continues.
