Danski, the idea of writting "AWAKE" on you hand does sound GENIUS. Im going to try that and give it some time to sink into my sub-conscious mind and if the success rate is good, I'll treat for new tattoos......thanks 4 advice! Seth, have u ever tried HILD. I read about it in the tutorials section in DV for the first time last night and sounded like a good technique. if anyone else has had success with HILD please fill me in.[/quote]
