Thanks for the feedback. I always like feedbacks good or not so good.

No problem. I am surprised you were allowed such a name for your site. I am sure two of those words in are trademarked.

Lame_Wolf, actually:

[en.wikipedia.org...]

The term Yellow Pages is not a registered name within the United States and is freely used by many companies.

Thanks for the info, koan. Although the image on wiki says "R" next to the name. (And the OP is not in the States... while in some other countries it is a registered name)

@Lame_Wolf: As far as I know it is not registered term except in Canada.
Walking fingers logo IS trademark and can be used upon paying subscription fee to YP Association [url]www.ypassociation.org[/url]
I also have some City YP names registered for USA Cities and till date (more than 4 years) no objection from anyone.

Thanks
Rajiv

There are other countries where it is registered.
