Give him a funny cartoon from his photo. It's always nice and original I guess. I like such gifts and made my boyfriend a unique gift last Birthday) He was drawn as a superhero character. And he really liked it =)

My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and I was freaking out. I looked at some diferent sites and came up with a few ideas. If you have a pic of you and him photoshop it and make it in black and white then buy a frame in his favortie color. You could paint or engrave something on the frame. You could put I love you or the date you guys started going out. If your boyfriend likes a sport get him the ball for that sport (soccerball, football, lacrosseball, hockey puck, etc.) and you could right something on it like I love you or write Michael and Michelle forever , or etc. Hope this helps :)

Yes im in the same situation as you my boyfrinds birthdays monday and i have no clue hat to get him! i was think maybe a energy drink and a twilight shirt(he loves twilight, we actually had a contest on who could read the books fasterwe tied) Its been driving me insane cause when i ask him what he wants its always idk. but my best advise to give you is give him something pratical, combine his fave things like give him a picture of you nest to his car wearing a shirt thats his fave color. beleive i bet he would like that more than a video game. you can even through some cologne in there and say something like "i thought you would smell really good in this" or something like that.

I know its a bit late.. but heres help if you need it in the future..
I am currently stuck in the same position.. My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and I'm kinda struggling..
I've just got Christmas over with.. and he's like any other stubbon boyfriend and says 'I don't want anything'
I find traditional gifts are so under-rated.. this about what he need and his hobbies..
If he likes sports get him something to do with sports.. like a new kit or equiptment.. if he like video games.. get him a new game..
I got my boyfriend a new trainers for Christmas along with some other things because his old ones were falling to pieces..
Think what he likes or needs.. and your set =D

well Elizabeth, if your boyfriend says he does not want anything, then maybe he really does not want anything. maybe spending and giving him all off your time in his birthday will be the best. making him feel so good, and making him have more reasons to love you. then wen he sees that he is going crazy over you because your just doing everything right then maybe thats the best gift. making him happy and leaving a big smile on his face leaving him with you on his mind non-stop will make him happy. all you gotz to do is make sure you make his b-day day extra xtra spesal. and also find ways in which you can make him sooooooooo happy.

 I wouldn't go down the cologne road unless he actually likes and wears cologne, otherwise, it's akin to him buying you flowers for your birthday. It's nice, but you wouldn't think a lot of thought has gone in.
You mention he likes his car - so why not look into some car accessories? There are any amount available. Maybe some seat or steering wheel covers, or pay for a wash and wax for him.

However, if you do still feel like getting him something get him a simple trinket to show him you care like a card or make him a batch of brownies, i know i always love brownies made with love.
