Need advice and comments about a name and style change.

Hello all.

I have the feeling that styl-x is dead. I get enough customers, thats not the problem however it isn't the business style I am looking for. I am already working on a new design for styl-x and I was also thinking about a new name. Lately I get alot of customers that want to order 'brand identity'.
This is what I want my new company to be focused on, but I also want to keep the skinning part of the business.
I already got a few designers and coders that would be intrested in participating in this new project and they are feeling the same way about it, I just want to have some second opinions.


This is the idea: (and believe me, I WILL sue you if you steal it )

The new name will be: SKINDICATE
Our slogan will be: Because the extra mile is our standard.

What do you think?
If you have any better ideas, feel free to post them!

I don't know if you're connected with them, but it seems the name "Skindicate" has been used before - as a google search shows:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=skindicate

Dating back to 2000 by the looks of things.

IMHO The name seems a good one if you can use it, but the slogan seems a little cliche...I'm sure I've heard it before somewhere and I would be more likely to groan hearing it than be impressed.

Yes, the Skindicate was a small co-op effort by Treetog, Dangeruss and D'mer.

, yeah I gues so. I just got a responce from treetog. He isn't too happy about me wanting to use the name I gues I won't do it then.

So, any chances someone is giong to come up with a good one then? It dasn't have to be skinning related. Just something short and "catchy".
