I was wondering if you could help me with something. As some of you may know, I run a design website called MW Presentations. I design contemporary logos, graphics, animations and websites.

I was thinking about launching (amongst others) a personal website, and a website for my design work. These would all be accessed through ONE website which would be like a base from which all the others could be viewed - like a bit of an online network of my sites if you see what I mean!?!

The initials of my name are MW, hence the "MW Presentations" website. I want the personal website to be called "MW[something]" and the network to be called "MW[something]" too.

I had thought about "MW Network" but it sounds a bit naff to be honest. I'm really stuck for ideas . . .

I quite like Martin Anderson's site - http://zappa.tvu.ac.uk/03AndersonM/. This is more or less what I'm after in terms of a network, but need a bit of inspiration as to what to call the whole network and what to call the personal page. Please bear in mind that I want every name to feature "MW" because they are my intials and will match the MW Presentations site.

Any ideas for names welcome and sorry for such a strange thread!

No offence meant, but in my eyes - that isn't a true website.

That's just a picture craved up. With the occasion text. The balance is completely wrong.

...and people using screen-readers wouldn't know what the site was about.

..and some people using a device like a mobile phone! Like me on occasion!

its just a place holder, until I setup a more definate site, once I am sure how I am going to use it. It was setup for a uni project.

Any good?

Doesn't that make it illegal?

It's a personal site, so no (the DDA applies to anyone who provides services to the general public). It does make it highly irritating to the person trying to read the site though.

Same applies for flash websites then!

I think in theory there are obscure ways of making them accessible with special tags and things
