I am going to 3rd this this is the best Idea of all, you can look like a Pirate with modern equipment.

And really who does not want to look like a Pirate, every body has wanted to be a Pirate at some point in their lives. All Men and Boy I know still wish they could be a Pirate.

Really Pirate Motif is what I would go with.

Im getting a new leg for two reasons.

1. My old knee is shot, I busted the hydaraulic cylinder twice. It was repaired fine but it just toast. Supposedbly it is the toughest on the market? Haha funny thing is now company is out of business.

2. I compound fractured the half femur in that leg and now I dont fit in the socket that well. Lol still can't believe I broke the bone into two separate pieces. Haha you had to pick my stump with two hands otherwise the end would fall down and hurt like a bitch.

Ooh Im going to get the vinyl with this slogan my buddy and I came up with. "Pump the Stump". It's going to be a tree stump with a bike pump pumping air in. Haha because your residual limb is referred to as your stump

if you dont mind me asking...

how did you loose your original leg to start with?

[Farbin Kaiber]

Not to pry, but could you explain how you broke your "half-femur"? I have often feared losing a limb, but never really spoke to anyone about it, and how long have you been using a prosthetic?

[Farbin Kaiber]

^^ LOL, we is on the same pagez.

Yeah my username is pretty sick.

Basically I was born with an extremely rare bone disease, one in like 1 (maybe 10) million people get it. I had the worst case ever reported

So anyways I had the disease (which makes the inside of the joint grow faster then the outside) in 11 areas, where normal cases are about two. I had my first surgery at 18 monthes, and one every year after until I was 11. On 5-16-2006 I had my leg amuptated because since I was 4 my knee and ankle were fused (didn't bend AT ALL). The growth plate of my leg had also closed... so it wasn't going to grow much more.

And here I am today.. soon to be a sophomore in high school. Ive wrestled on the school wrestling team, this year I did swim, and I ride my bike a hell of alot (for a kid).

I look up to you. There is a drive that all of us "able-bodied" or "complete" people should at least strive for. Hat's off to you, and thanks for showing us slackers how it is.

Mad respect.

im the designer for a sign shop.

a vinyl wrap would be a piece of cake. anything you wanted can be printed and laminated for longevity. dont expect anything less than $150 though. they would put the seam at the back.

[Farbin Kaiber]

The seam would be better suited on the inseam, inner thigh region.
