I like the idea very much.

Can you give a sneak peek of you're design?

There should be a sneak peek splash page up in the next few days. Just need to tweak and colour the page.

If all goes well it should be very comic book/cartoon, but I don't want to hype it to much or you might be disappointed... hahaha

It is ALWAYS time I know exactly what you mean! I run another site for my video production company to basically self promote myself as a freelance shooter and I can hardly find the time to keep it up. I only recently re-built it so it should be fresh for a while.

But it looks nothing like this site will look like.

J 1982 Why are you saying a lot went down? Do you mean they lost interest or people shut them down?

Hey Canadian Turtle,

If ever you would need some help on anything, I would be glad to help. I am from Ontario as well, and it's about time we have a awesome TMNT Canadian Site!

Good luck!

The sites are still aviable, but I said many of them haven't been updated since 2004-2005.

I said no because there are enough TMNT fan sites, and i think you could spend your time on something much better.

^Thats cool, and I don't intend on making it a 'fan site' really. The only fan material I will be posting will be of my display but thats different, I would have done a site for that anyway. The site is intended as a networking avenue for TMNT collectors of all types to post their wanted and for sale lists in one consistent space, but in no way is it to replace services provided by the drome, because the drome rules!!

Ron - Very cool! I love the Ontario connection! I could use a little help in the web design world as there are a few specific things I am trying right now that are new to me, so if anyone is a HTML nut maybe you can PM me. Thanks!

J 1982 - Cool man thanks for that! I again realize what I am getting myself into, but as long as people find the site useful I fully intend to keep it up! Again I as a "consumer" of the web I am interested in what the site is going to provide to me as a service so I hope this acts as more than just a 'fan site'

Thanks all for your input! Keep it coming!

Get some good endorsements, if you get some people who are popular among the web to help spread the word (and they are men/women of their word of course) then you should be seeing some decent traffic from the get go. If you know anyone pretty big in the name of business, maybe get them help you out too.

Sure will. I might ask my webdesign for my website, he might give you some help.

It kinda sucks where I live, north of Ontario. I am the only TMNT fan in this city that I know of. That's why, you are the closest thing toa TMNT family! haha...

^ cool what city?

I hope people on the drome can help spread it that way as well. This is a TMNT collector specific site so people who are outside the drome should be able to find it as well!

Sorry double post but here is the first peak at the site:

www.iproductionsonline.com/tmntsplash.htm

All of the site will have backgrounds and navs much like this. But I am still drawing, colouring, and working out the technicals of it. Might be a little while. I'll have an end date posted very soon!

Wow, that's incredible work!

I am from Kapuskasing, ON. 2 hours north of Timmins ( if you know where that is ). I would be very glad to help out spread the word for TMNT fans in the area ( like I said, I havent found none ).

Also, I have this huge collection underway, which I will be able to send you photos once my display is done ( or almost there ).

Like mentionned, anything you need, let me know!

Very cool!! Well I have added one more page to the preview. No more will be going up until the final layout is finished. Again I would guess mid Oct.

Please feel free to send me your wanted and for sale lists, as I will compile them and add them as the site goes up. When a name is decided I will add a new email address to send to but for now you can email me at:

[email protected]

Thanks!!

So it comes down to it! Which name should I go with. Which of these three should I buy into online?

Sewer Swap
Turtle Swap
turtle trading post

Or suggest another but I like these three. Think as a URL whats easy to remember and pass on to other people.
