I searched and didn't find anything (recent) on this topic. I know most of us have tattoos and piercings so lets see 'em!
I'll start!
First tattoo- lower back (tramp stamp /sigh)
My sand dollar on my foot- possibly my fav out of all of em
Tragus piercing
Rook piercing (and my feathers <3)
My daughter's name on my wrists
My nerd flag is flying high on my ribs
Tongue ring!
Nose ring!
And last (for now) my rose that I got to honor my grandmother (italian flag)

I have 7 piercings at the moment. Lip, nose, tongue, and 2 in each ear. I have a ridiculous amount of tattoos I'm planning to get once I have the disposable cash.
You can see my lip ring and sort of see my nose ring in this photo. I don't really have many pictures showing the piercings exclusively. xD

I love the way the lip ring looks on you! I'm not sure I could pull it off. I also thought about getting my septum done but I went with the one I have XD

Hmmmm....I have my lobes pierced, and the upper cartilage of my right ear pierced as well, for a friend who was apprenticing as a piercer at the time. I also have one tattoo, done at the end of my first year of University, my first time away from home (if you can call a 2 hour drive "away from home"). I was going through a ton of anxiety that year, and I finally bucked up and thought, "If I could survive a tattoo, I can totally survive University and more." I don't regret my decision.
Inspired by the following excerpt of Emilie Autumn's
The Asylum for Wayward Victorian Girls:
It is a battle scar. 'I have a heart to break' is all it means. 'I am killable'. It doesn't mean 'down with love' or 'I hate my boyfriend' or any other silly, stupid sentiment. It simply means that I have that within me that can also destroy me. I learned this in the hardest way. I am not special. I am not polished, or strong, or protected in any way. I spent most of my life thinking that I was immune, and it wasn't until I died that I realized I wasn't. I won't forget that again. [sic]… It is the battle scar that reminds me both of my beating heart and of its fragility, and of how very raw I am. Besides, [sic] the criss-cross heart, you may think that I had tried, quite literally, to cut out my heart. And maybe I did.
I'd like to have a few more, including the word Manifest with a Phoenix feather, and maybe something to commemorate my undying love for Sailor Moon and Phantom of the Opera.

Thanks!!! It was a spur of the moment "hmm I want a tattoo" type thing. My mom and I used to spend countless hours combing the beach for sand dollars when I was little so I thought this was fitting.
The thing I love most about tattoos is that it's hard not to like one, no matter what you get it represents a stage in your life. I adore tattoos and plan on getting MANY more ^_^

The sand dollar is very pretty. Unfortunately I dont have pictures but I have both ears pierced and one tattoo. I'd thought about getting my nose done just havent yet. I want another tattoo as well.. Although Cowmu I'd go against downstairs lady part piercing for the very reason if you enjoy being intimate a piercing will and does dull feeling and can permanantly let you feel nothing there if you arent careful. : /

All my piercings are in my ears or in the immediate area - eight lobe piercings (four in each ear), one cartilage piercing in my right ear and a tragus piercing in my left. I have one tattoo on my upper back, between my shoulderblades. I'd really like to get another, but I'm not sure what I'd want or where I'd get it, so I'm going to wait for now.
I'd like to get my eyebrow pierced, but I've heard too many horror stories about them not staying where they should and such. That and I wax my eyebrows so I'm not sure how I'd go about doing that with an eyebrow piercing. I also loooove tongue piercings but I'm just too chicken to do it. I really love lip rings, too, but I don't think one would look very good on me.
Sooo, just ears.

I know the idea seems scary, but honestly the tongue was probably the easiest piercing I've ever had. The worst part about it is just the clamps they use to hold your tongue, you don't even feel the piercing itself. Most of the nerves on your tongue are located around the edge and borders (where you might accidentally bite it), but directly in the center? Take your fingernails and pinch the center of your tongue, that's all it feels like. Plus you get to lie down and just relax for it. Bring an mp3 player and zone out and it'll be over in no time.

I had a lot more piercings a while back but I took some out when I got a job and they made me. I'd have put them back in but meh. I only have my tongue, lip and ears now. I've been considering a tattoo but I don't know what of though. It's a big decision and I don't want to get something and then regret it later. I'll probably get pictures in the morning or something.

I had my ears done when I was 9, but stopped using earrings at age 13 or so, and I've not had any piercings done since then, although I did originally plan some.
Tattoos I have five of, but want many, many more. Unfortunately money is tight for now, but some day.
Here are the four I have pictures of (one is in a place I don't have photographed

):
This is a pretty old picture, back from before I had kids (and got a second tattoo on that same arm), but it's the only one that shows the tribal thingy I have around my arm. It was my first tattoo and since my mother was paying for it, and she hates tattoos, she didn't let me get something I really wanted. Still, it holds a place in my heart anyway, it is my first after all.
Right shoulder blade.
Lower back.
Right arm.

I'm working on a few designs for a tattoo of Freyja, the Norse Goddess, who's my patron; unfortunately, the funds aren't there right now, but the designs aren't polished yet either, so it all works out. Someday hopefully somewhat soon!

I'm a dude with no bling
I'm deathly afraid of needles, so I avoid them. Which is sad, because I have a killer wolf head tattoo I'd love to get. But the idea of it makes my insides shake. I'd need nerve pills!
Plus at 140lbs there are not many places I can get one that wont look dumb. Lower back is out due to nerve damage. My ex wife has a good friend that is a tattoo artist, and after poking my spasming muscles said "no way, that'd hurt too much"
