Hahahaha Speaking of webspace... I signed up for that Cyberwings deal and got www.paintchip.net, but I haven't gotten anything in about 4 days about my space being activated yet. Should it take this long?

expect it to take another 2 weeks. They are backed up. I did mine on april 24th, dont expect it til may7th

You have to use one of those services that snags a site for you as soon as it becomes available.
I'm willing to be thats what someone did to get aphex.net

APHEX.BIZ, APHEX.US, APHEX.WS are still available.

All the APHEX2 are available

and all the APHEXII are available except .com


.ws is website and godaddy only charges $14.95 for the first year and $9.95 for each additional year.

That's what I was afraid of Ah well, I guess that means I can put a bunch of work into designing of the site since I can't upload it

How do you register a domain name and how much does it cost?

 

[joohang]

I got joohang.net.

I had joohang.com with NameZero but it expired and didn't bother to claim it.

 

[aphex]

<< How do you register a domain name and how much does it cost? >>



$8.95 a year from Godaddy.com

 

[Rakkis]

Actually, .ws is the country code for Samoa.

[chiwawa626]

[amnesiac]

I have
big-ballin.com
electricyoni.com
flingpoo.net
amnesium.org

Have no clue what I'm going to do with them, but I have them nonetheless.

 

[kgraeme]

I don't trust any registrar that doesn't charge the full and proper $35/year.

Edit: I also need to find out what domains I own through RegisterFly. Some unauthorized charges showed up on my CC statement for them and now I'm really curious what I paid for. I wonder if I could force RegisterFly to give me the domains?

 

[amnesiac]

<< I don't trust any registrar that doesn't charge the full and proper $35/year. >>


By that logic, you don't trust any store that sells stuff for less than retail either, I guess?

 

[Lucky]

<< I don't trust any registrar that doesn't charge the full and proper $35/year. >>





Full and proper? Who defines proper, the folks that are raping you in the ass with those fees? :disgust: Godaddy.com was the best site I ever found.

[Squisher]
