The 2 best selling tattoo galleries, Chopper Tattoo and Tattoo Me Now may look pretty similar at first glance but what’s the real difference? Most people look for a number of specific things in a tattoo collection. These include artwork quality, community, tattoo resources and the bonuses. Let’s see how these two sites compare on these factors.
Chopper Tattoo has a reputation for quality artwork. Go to any review site and the first thing they’ll tell you is about the awards Chopper has. That said, there is nothing wrong with Tattoo Me Now art. With loads of images on their website, check it out for yourself. Sign up to their site to get sent some free designs for a closer look.
The big feature of Tattoo Me Now is resources. It gives you a number of tattoo resources unavailable elsewhere on the net. The “Video Vault” lets you watch and upload videos in 12 categories. There is a large international “Studio Directory” with a rate and review section so you can see what members think and see which studios are recommended in your town. Other resources include a large library of tattoo news and articles, audio books and tattoo info eBooks.
On the other hand the resources at Chopper are more limited and also include a Tattoo Artists’ Directory, which members can also rate, and a “Customized Lettering” feature that provides you with a large number of lettering ideas so you can customize words and phrases. So, on this score the winner has got to be Tattoo Me Now.
While a community is not a big deal for some, others enjoy spending hours getting and sharing ideas and photos. Chopper does not have a community but Tattoo Me Now certainly does. It has its own members’ gallery that lets you upload your own tattoo photos and review other members’. This is a separate photo gallery from the design collection and is contained in 38 different categories for easy browsing.
Bonuses offered by Chopper include an online tattoo magazine, “Inked”, and MP3 music downloads. Tattoo Me Now give you 3 eBooks: “You & Your Tattoo: What You Need To Know” eBook and audio file, the eBook “Got Ink” and “Chinese Names and Words” eBook. So, the two sites are pretty equal on the extras.
Each website has well over 100,000 visits a month so there are plenty of user comments on the net. Some comments appeared regularly for both. Chopper had loads of testimonials saying how easy it was to navigate and how members had quickly found their “perfect tattoo”. Tattoo Me Now feedback talked mostly about being good value for money with so much offered for the price.
In the end it comes down to not who is better than the other – it depends on what you want. Neither is going to short change you if you are after great designs but if artwork matters most to you, Chopper Tattoo must be a first choice. Tattoo Me Now is a fuller package offering loads of info and a buzzing community. So if you’re looking for more than a gallery, make that your first choice. Don’t forget that both offer a full guarantee so even if you’re not 100% satisfied it’s easy to get your money back.
