Steve Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Aloha LST'ers, We have launched a new section on LST where you can rate and post reviews of all of the tattoo shops you have been to: Tattoo Shop Reviews | Last Sparrow Tattoo If you see a shop missing, just click the yellow 'add another tattoo shop' button at the top right and submit the shop name, location, and other details requested in the form and we'll add it to the list. Notice that there is an option to upload a picture of the tattoo that you got at the shop you're reviewing. Unfortunately the images are not linked to the LST Tattoo Gallery system at this time. Try it out and let us know how we can make it better!

David Flores Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Sounds great. This will create a database of the best tattoo shops worldwide and give real feedback from actual customers and not be cluttered up with uninformed rants by people too cheap to pay for tattoos so they feel the need to bad mouth a shop.

CultExciter Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Super cool. I've added a couple already myself. One small quip/suggestion? Could this be sortable by state/country? It might make it easier to navigate? I'm just a little OCD about sorting.

It's not a big deal, but if a person's first exposure to the site is this page, I would imagine you would want an easy way for them to sign up a be part of the community. Not seeing that option is available might lead someone to think they have to sign up for an account before posting and discourage them from taking time to write a review.

Ursula Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 will the reviews come up with our username? I might be discouraged from leaving a poor review on a site like this where the person you're badly reviewing might see it?

I might be discouraged from leaving a poor review on a site like this where the person you're badly reviewing might see it? That's a good question, thanks for asking it. the answer is yes, your post will appear under your LST username, however, you can log out of LST, then leave an anonymous review under a pseudonym if you'd prefer. ie, you don't have to be a registered LST member to leave a shop review. email address is required to post, but is not displayed.

NickelRad Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 That's Awesome. Such a great way to go "look through" shops without having to go in. So instead of having people ask "where is a good place in Los Angelos to get tattooed" You can just go to the page, and waalaah easily do research for yourself with, hopefully, trustworthy reviews of artist's and their shops.

Avery Taylor Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 I think maybe this is already being fucked with. People reviewing with no previous user history. Smells like advertising. However I maybe wrong since I have less skills on a computer than my four year old daughter. If I am wrong sorry.

Lochlan Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 @Avery Taylor We've been watching that and so far the obvious "spammer" stuff from a backend perspective is not there but we'll continue to keep an eye out and appreciated you all doing the same thing, thanks. Maybe that shop is referring their customers to the site to give reviews?
