I think people seem to have the idea their tattoos are more important than they really are. "Oh look at my new tattoo". Yeah, no one cares.

I can't imagine who would want them. Friends, family members, art collectors ? Having a piece of preserved flesh from a loved one framed & hanging on my wall would be, at the very least, rather creepy.
No thanks, just take them with you when you die.

I saw this today... wow!

I get it, which is weird in and of itself, folks think of the tattoos as works of art and some truely are and that that ark preserved... but can't you just take a picture of it? On the wall... that's like way too Hannibal Lecteresques for my taste.

Leave my framed tats to my family, I can't think of anything that would hit that trash faster.
