Need Creative Input

Disneyphile · 10-25-2009, 07:40 PM

I really need to know what you all think of the name "Digital Shanty" for a paid download site that offers website templates, web components, banners, video editing components, animations, digital themes, and more, with prices starting at just $9.99 each. This is only for pre-made templates that can be customized by the buyer, completely royalty-free. Target market are freelancers who want to save a bit of time on projects.

Thanks!

Love it! Wish you'd started before I bought the web template I did!!!

When can we see something?

As soon as I develop enough product to make at least a few offerings in each category, which is going much quicker than I expected.

I'm looking to launch on January 1st, 2010.

It will be separate from my custom contract work. I just want something that will maintain a bit of income with no pressure, etc. I also get free hosting for it, so my expenses are nil, except for advertising, which I've already got some free resources for too. I already secured both the .com and .net domains as well.

I'm currently working on a mock-up of the site for one of my class midterm projects. Might as well get a start since I have to do a project anyway.

So far, the logo is a charcoal sketch of a computer monitor with a crooked roof and bent stovepipe. The "screen" simply reads "Digital Shanty" in a scribbled font. It's straight up black on white.

The site's background is a brown craft paper, like a bag.

And, I'm starting to dream up a tagline for it... something like, "Cheap Yet Professional Designs Under One Roof".

I'm starting to think I work well under stress.

That needs some work. The name rocks. Do you own the domain?

"Your one-stop-shop for affordable resources" ?

My opinion is worth what you paid for it, which is nothing. Here goes anyway:

Concept: love.

Name: love.

Logo: love but what about a vivid orange - higher energy, suggests cheap but efficient. If not orange, how about a green, as money is green?

Tagline: I love lashbear's suggestion with the edit of "affordable website resources"
