Help name my site

[jimbobhickville]

Hello all...this is sort of shameless self-promotion, but I do really need some help here. I have made a metal discography site which is nearing completion (http://metal.idiglobal.com ignore the lack of content, we're just barely starting to enter the info). Originally I wanted to title it Encyclopedius Metallicus partly in honor of Candlemass' debut CD and partly because it is going to be an encylopedia of metal CDs. I found out, however, that there is an Encyclopedia Metallica in existence, so I don't want to feel like I copied their name. I changed it to Librarius Metallicus, but I'm not sure if I like that title. Does anyone have a good title for my site? It is intended to catalog (or catalogue for you damn Brits and Canucks ) all metal releases, past and present. A daunting task, but not an unreachable goal. Anyway, any ideas are welcome. If I use your idea, all I can give you is credit for coming up with it on the home page...I'm not making money from the site.

Thanks.

By the way, there will be a logo added to the top of the site after I finalize the name, so that image that is there is just a place holder (it looks kind of odd without a proper logo). Just FYI if you were wondering what that was.

Hey jimbob, call it:

COMPENDIUM METALLICUM

How about metalmasterlist ??

Metallic Cum? Sounds kind of lewd Still, I do kind of like the title...thanks...I'll definitely consider it.

Ha Ha! I wondered if anyone would point that out.

O.K. leave out the lewd part - COMPENDIUM METALLIUM
Still sounds pretty metal.

Well, I like it, but based on feedback from my posts on other boards, it looks like I'll stick with Librarius Metallicus. Thanks for the suggestions everyone. We're looking to officially launch the site at the beginning of May, so I'll let everyone know the domain and stuff at that point.

Later.

Alrighty, so we didn't officially launch yet, but the official url (http://www.librariusmetallicus.com) works. We're still waiting on a logo before we launch "officially". There's over 400 bands in there now, and about 12 guys working on it.

I'd like to recruit some more guys to help build the db, so if anyone here is interested, then either post here, PM me, or email support@librariusmetallicus.com. Basically, all you do is enter the data in forms; it's pretty easy, but it does take some time. I'm looking for people who know a lot of bands, especially obscure ones, and who have enough free time to work on it fairly regularly (you know, a couple hours a week or so is enough to add a couple bands, which would be great). People who contribute are recognized on the pages they contribute, but that is it. No money, no free stuff (unless for some reason I start getting CDs in the mail or something, then I'll spread the wealth).

Let me know.

Later,
Greg.
