Need some help coming up with a domain name
www.knackersyard.com ? (A knackersyard in England in where horses (and ponies) go to be turned into Glue)
I think you have something with the "lawn ornament" name. After all, you aren't going for search engine recognition. You'll probably get your traffic from forums and anyone you may send the link to, so you don't need a readily identifiable name.
Give us some details about your specific project. That ought to help.

I thought about the Lawn Ornament thing too but felt it was a little corny if I gave it out to someone outside "the loop".

I totally agree Pak. I had envisioned the lawn jockey as well. Maybe put a steering wheel in his hand?

I would just put a bit of an explanation on the first page. Anyone that doesn't get it then doesn't need to be visiting the site, they need to strap their helmet back on so they don't hurt themselves.

I disagree, I think it's a good name as is. In fact, I'd even try to photoshop in a little Lawn Jockie (goes with the stang theme still) with your car for the main page and replace the typical lantern he holds with something clever.

I will post a picture if you need it to do a photochop (its at home, I can post it later). It does go together; Jockey - Pony.

It doesn't say anything about it on the site but by entering that code it deducted $110.$$ from the yearly price of $119.$$ (9.95/mth) plus they tripled the storage and transfer rates. I got the info from a guy on another board and it worked. Some kind of anniversary special and I'm sure the price will go back to the regular 9.95/mth after my year is up. Still not bad at that price if, like you said, the up time is good. Guess we'll see.

Don't forget the Pink Flamingos! There was a guy that lived in a very exclusive neighborhood near my buddy that had his parking spot (grassed area off his gravel driveway) outlined with pink flamingos changed together with outdoor lights that were chili peppers. We used to call his house Margaritaville.

Before I read that last part, I was thinking... "Margaritaville? Sounds like my kind of house."
