Regfee-20$. Not a real word, but you might find someone interested in it for slightly above reg fee. Not sure whether the "s" is helping or hindering it... either way I dont think it changes much.

Just helps prove that even the slang term isn't well known. Sorry Champion.

Kewl is well known... at least it was a couple of years back. To me it would be worth something.

Could be, but moreso for the younger generations. Doubt the elderly will know what that means :laugh:

Young people tend not to have credit cards as well. So its not that great of a market to target with such a term. Design companies tend to aim for business mostly, while the averageyoung person is still in school or in an entry level position, not making those types of decisions.

I believe the first time I heard of the word "Kewl" was in 1994 or 1995. We're 9 years further now and people who were then youngsters are now grown up (mostly anyway :) ). A name like "KewlDesigns" would work for a company which would like to present themselves with a "loose" attitude, as was common in the DotCom era. Shorts, wearing no tie... flat internal company structure, etc etc.

But... the DotCom era is like a flat tire now... just like the stocks.

That bubble burst.... so maybe it would be worth something back then, but now. i dont think so.

"kewl" would be fine if it was a design company for kids to buy designs for pocket money. I dont see "Kewl Designs" competing with Ceonex :D

no no not a company..I was thinking of starting up a forum, when I registered this domain..A place where people can come and submit their designs for downloading, share tips tricks. and yes, it IS targeted to teenagers.

I stand by my appraisel. The domain itself is worthless. Develop it and it might have some potential, but until then. reg fee is my appraisel.
