Photoshop Tutorials (and resources) Domain Name idea?

[BernardBlack]

Hey guys, I been trying to think of a decent domain name for a photoshop tutorials (and resources) site that I plan to launch over mid december this year, but I can't think of a decent name.

I'm planning that it will have forums / tutorials / resources for photoshop / design in general.

I was thinking perhaps "design" / "art" / "photoshop" in the domain name (needs to be unique / original / .com), have you guys got any ideas?

Many thanks

Hmmmm... BlackArts.com?....

[BernardBlack]

Taken, and it doesn't need to be around my username :P

Just woundering if you guys have any "designer type" domain names you have thought up and havn't used, or think up now

I was thinking of maybe deviousdev.com or bladeworkz.com maybe?

[pscoke]

Oh, damn, you beat me to it. I was going to suggest shopworkz.com

[BernardBlack]

shopworkz.com is taken (check at godaddy.com), and I don't seem to find the connection between shopworkz and design thanks for thinking though.

Hmm, photoSHOP??

but I don't know a decent name around with al these forums and recourse sites around everything i can think of is already been used or partiraly been used......

Maybe it's time for something else instead of more of the same.

[BernardBlack]

Hmm, I guess... but "shop" sort of suggests business rather than part of photoshop.

Yea, but what else :P That's the problem, and there aren't that many decent tutorial sites out there...

how bout designknights.com

[BernardBlack]

designknights.com is taken.

What do you guys think about artutor.com? I think I have decided just to have photoshop tutorials on the website, and then perhaps sell it at a later date (half way through next year).

Edit: Or maybe even artutorials.com.

[unleash]

I would go for artutors.com in that case, i think by making artutors from it would give you the position to let other people also upload tut's.
Like it's your site with your tut's but if someone has a good tut and would like to place it on your site....And if you want to sell tuts then you could use help writing them which makes the website run by more then one person.....

[wombie]

Blacktuts.com it would be frantastic :P there could be manny manny tutorials and you'd never have to deal with customers personally

What about PhotoshopGarden.com or TutorialGarden.com?

It implies growth, which is good for someone learning and for the idea that the tutorial list would presumably be growing as well.

Interesting concept there Although the layout will most likely be a dark one, so I don't think Garden would suit, and I don't feel like making a garden layout

Thanks for the ideas, I plan for the site to be just my collection of tutorials that I have made, and maybe grow to having tutorial writers that have their own profiles etc etc, I'll see how good I am at php first.

Just because the name is PhotoshopGarden doesn't mean you have to design it like a garden. Just keep it a dark theme, but add a subtle dark colored flower or a rose and it could be a pretty sweet design.

[BernardBlack]

Hmm good point, could be emo garden :P Yea, I guess the design doesn't need to be limited to pretty / frilly colours / designs. Tempting. I'm not sure if it's quite "me" though >.<

Something like bladetutorials.com is more my style I think... I'm not sure. I'm confused, been thinking of photoshop tutorials domain name for too long I think.
