Can't help on the naming front, but I do have a little observation I'd like to express. It's nothing personal (unless there's another reason you got suspended and you're a bit of an idiot, in which case it's very personal ;)) but it's something I've noticed over the years.

Personally, I don't see a website there. There's not much of a design; just a few yellow headers, a photo at the top and a few lines for a background. As far as accessability goes - not very impressive. Inline image spacers, image navigation; the markup is going to be hell for a screenreader or a mobile device. I won't go into it greatly, but tables are so 90's; you could do a lot better with XHTML/CSS, make the code beautiful and slash download times massively.

All that and you don't actually have any content? I hope you're not intending on going with that idea for the final website; I think I'd struggle bookmarking a site with content of that calibre even if it had the most beautiful design in the world and had code I could eat right up. Dedicate a small slot on a sidebar to aggregated external hardware news and reviews by all means (look at Anandtech's integration of DailyTech headlines as an example), but I don't think the idea justifies an entire site.

I understand everyone has to start somewhere - heck, I'll admit to making sites like that four years back and thinking they were the best thing since sliced bread - but don't think you can become the next THG/Anandtech/Guru3D with a site like that...

actually I got suspended for not covering the swear word above properly, I left the first letter visible. as for the rest.. I only started the site on tuesday, I have other, more important stuff such as my GCSEs to concentrate on actually... do you think that I'm going to have a whole bank of reviews up within two days? jesus.. as for content, oh you've seen the front page newssection, well done! you can see EXACTLY how the whole site is going to be from that can't you! :\ also, may I see what kind fo experience you have designing websites? I'm more of a graphics guy rather than a coder guy if you hadn't noticed.. my plans is to have something different to other sites aswell. such as a vmod database and the reviews to be posted in forum topics to enable people to postcomments or help for whatever.. tbh you're not helping, i asked for a name not for you to bash my site, if you don't like it, fair enough, don't visit it. I'm only 16 not a pro wedsite coder. I'm not trying to start an arguement, I just feel you post was unneccessary and annoying.
