Yesterday on “It's still a [land].”

I have a Machine God's Effigy enter the battlefield as a copy of an animated Spawning Pool, then I activate the Effigy's ability to become a creature.

Does “It's still a land” just mean “It's still the permanent types that it was at the activation of this ability”? I.E. does this translate to the Effigy becoming an artifact creature until end of turn?

Notes: I chose Cryptothrall over Spellskite because they serve the same function, to protect your stuff, but Cryptothrall requires less effort. I put in Optimus because I wanted to experiment with him. Lastly, I'm keeping Austere Command in the deck since I like to have a board wipe that hits enchantments and artifacts.
