Alphabet and Pronounciation GuideThis is an introduction to the Arabic alphabet. The information provided here is crucial If you want to learn reading/writing Arabic. Getting acquainted to the writing system also saves you some effort when learning how to speak either Arabic or Egyptian. Probably the best way to learn the alphabet is the way we used as children, to sing it ;). Here is one song by cute children, they are not natives so their pronunciation of certain letters is not absolutely correct but still very good:
There are three aspects in the Arabic writing system that are different from latin:
Finally, here is a table of all Arabic letters in their different forms. Note that for some letter, Egyptian pronounciation differs from Arabic. In such cases, Egyptian pronouncation remarks are written in italic. Get familiar with them, try to write your name with letters and vowels, and use this table as a reference for your further lessons. I recommend you to use this free program aralpha by Olivier Thill .

Tattooslol, i know how tattoos are very popular these days, but i think that the main objection to tattoos is that it's a permanent alteration to how your body looks, so whether it's a picture or words, it really doesn't matter. the essence of this point of view is that God created you in the most perfect form, and no permanent changes should be applied to his creation...and God knows best...
