Time for a change of name?

Posted in chatter on April 29th, 2009 by Trevsweb – Comments Off

cs-stampWell I’ve been planning on changing my name for a while. I’ve grown out of the Trevsweb persona. Sometimes feel let down by using its name in public as far from my ideals of showing more of a personal side to web design it showed me in an inferior light to other companies.

It has always humoured me that these cold calling companies still bother me by ringing me up butchering my last name or asking for a company director of Trevsweb.com to sell me something like platinum cards or personalised company bars of soap. no your speaking to the director and no I’m not interested / can’t afford it. Although a room filled with Trevsweb pens and promotional googly eyed bugs does sound tempting. However I shall end up giving them all names and not allowing anyone to have them… GET OFF JEFF he’s my favourite!

Anyway I’ve decided to buckle under pressure and become another faceless charade of pretending I have a vast office block for my services with ChromexStudios.com yep that’s the name I’ve chosen. It originates from my different coloured eyes (Hetrochromia) which I share with David Bowie apparently.  Things are going nicely the domain is there at least and I should have a shell of a design available soon, although I’m still on the fence whether or not to get business cards printed… I feel the 400 or so cards for Trevsweb still need to go before making/wasting more.

I shall stay here with the Trevsweb persona but on much more of a personal CV/jokey website as its now accustomed to.

More updates soon when a site goes live but for now think weird eyes lol

After seeing the results for myself on propertyinojen and k&n property buying services with their blog I have seen the light. Yes I too am going to be a proper blogger… to rinse google of its SEO possibilities! yay! Whats remarkable is their site is now featured on various first page searches worst being page 3 which in my books is pretty good with the crowded market.

Anyway Bill wanted a website doing earlier this month so we decided to follow suit of K&N and get blogging… sure its just copying the content off the main site but anyway… the design is now online with a PHPBB3 powered forums, currently the site and blog are live (tho the blog is not actively linked though I think I might) only the photo gallery and forum skin to do and we should be able to go content crazy… not that we haven’t already… I counted 14 additional pages lol. Go check the site out I love the vivid look and the lil tree. http://www.newmanfamilyhistory.com

… Well truthfully its been there for a while but i enjoied making it, the grungy damaged brushes really helped make a tatty effect to the corners. I was quite happy that i managed to make the thing strechable too. everything went well with the site its just a shame they dont share my music taste…
