Relaunch of my photo sharing site - Can you help beta test it?

**rogercbryan** · 08-09-2010 11:49 AM

So I've owned IMGShack Photo Hosting for a while now. I've had three occurrences when the site has made me a lot of money (followed by server crashes). I've now completely redesigned the site so that people can not only post their pictures but also sell them. The site just went live today so I'm sure it has a lot of bugs (well maybe a few - hopefully none).

We are still working out the logistics of people buying and selling their pictures.

Here are somethings I'm looking for:
1- A better domain like a .com with the keywords picture, photo, sharing, image, file, etc
*If you have one let me know
2- A printer who can handle orders for copies of the pictures
* So a person will select the pictures they want. Place and order for the size, select a framing, and you mail it to them. These are for sizes up to 2' x 3' on matting and stretched over wood. If you can handle that and all the sizes below please let me know.

Also, this is now a completely custom script so I will be licensing once the bugs are worked out. If you are interested please let me know.

Personally i believe in branding so if you believe in your product i would go with a .com that is brandable.

I agree... I bought the site as a .info... I'm shipping now for a .com

Do a 5-6 letter made up word that is catchy.

It could even be something as large as 11chars if it has the word image or photo in it. Everyone is trying to copy sites like "flickr".. but I think those names are a shot in the dark. They could be extremely successful or they can flop. I've noticed a lot of people's attempts to mimic that type of marketing strategy have flopped.. they're simple trying wayy too hard.

I would prefer to go keyword rich with a domain like www.photosharingsite.com (taken of course) but keyword rich domains seem to work better... don't you think?
