Would-be burglars take note: if you're going to rob a pub, make sure you keep your backside covered.

A Queensland woman has been jailed over a robbery and shooting after her backside and a distinctive tattoo above it were captured on CCTV.

The Supreme Court in Brisbane heard Eboni Pydde, 21, concealed her face behind a hoodie and sunglasses, but obviously didn't think to pull up her pants far enough when she robbed the Coomera Lodge Hotel on the Gold Coast in December 2011.

She was dubbed the "bum crack bandit" after police released CCTV footage showing Pydde flashing her rear as she leaped over the bar to steal bottles of alcohol.

The footage showed her distinctive lower back tattoo, later used as evidence against her.
