Ball Prints

[adizziedoll]

Okay, so I decide that I need a website if I am going to breed and sell snakes. I go to topcites, and made my domain "pythonprints", but i never got my password and so I cant sign in and get it set up. My boyfriend, the funny man that he is, decided to go on and make the domain "Ballprints". He got a password!! Dammit....

So, tell me fellow herpers, how unprofessional is the domain BallPrints ? LoL, It makes me laugh, which is good... but im not sure everyone would find it so humorous. Would it decrease sales? I couldnt think of any other names (excepts for adams domain and "Got balls?", which are both totally brilliant) I dunno, it's kind of silly that i dont have the website up yet because i cant think of a name...

Considering your audience I cant find a single thing wrong with that

Remember we're talking about the same folks (snake and more particularly BP enthusiasts) who pun off "balls" all the time. The same folks who you'll see at herp shows with "Evert my hemipenes" tshirts etc . . .

I don't find it offensive (as a matter of fact, it took me a couple of seconds to realize why anyone would find it offensive ... I get it now) ... but ... when I say it out loud or read it, I think of a sporting related artwork (prints) company and not a python breeder.

There might be a marketing hurdle to overcome there.

Just my $.02

I'm in the same boat as Adam. I think it's clever and not the least bit offensive...especially given your consumer base. But when I read the thread heading, I thought you were going to be asking for or offering pictures of snakes. That's the only downside I see to it.

cute

yeah, thats a good point that I never thought of. I prints, like snake skin prints and there are so many different kinds, but i want someone to know its a breeder first thought. i wanted ballpythonprints, but im only allowed 12 letters, and i would still have the same problem with the "print" thing AHHH lol im so bad at this

Wow, i just realized that 1/2 of that post didn't make sense. Sometimes i wonder how i do so well in college...

Hmm..Well if you ever start selling bags for bowling balls, I definitely have a domain name suggestion

OK, apparently I'm really slow - because I still don't get it? Anyone care to PM me and enlighten me?
