Have you tried Namecheap? I register all of my domains with them and they've always exceeded my expectations.
I think that the application itself has a lot of potential; however, there are two things that distract me from the actual content. Although I find the design agreeable, I feel as though the color scheme is reminiscent of security, perhaps Norton AntiVirus even. Although this could be seen as a positive, I think it is too much business/professional given the concept and would benefit from a more design/art feel. Additionally, I agree with mryan that the name does not do the application justice and quite possibly gives the wrong impression to potential users. Below are some available domain names I just brainstormed if you are interested. I am not suggesting that these are necessarily any better, just offering some suggestions. I hope that this does not come off as too negative, as I am honestly impressed by the application thus far. Nice work.

Ask HN: What can Color possibly accomplish with $41 million?

After seeing what Color is all about and reading about their $41 million funding, I do not understand why such an exorbitant amount is even necessary for their application. It seems simple enough. Where will this money go? Realistically, could they not accomplish the same with $1 million, even $100,000? Color is clearly no Facebook or Twitter. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!
