Hi everyone,

I'm seeking a graphic web designer or two that is talented, understands what makes a site sell, what surfers really need out of a site & has experience.

I require the following...

Excellent knowledge of CSS & html a must
xhtml is a bonus, but not necessary
Flash is a bonus, but is not necessary
PHP is a bonus, but not necessary
Experience designing Directories sites, Classified sites &/or a Database to make it look aesthetically nice & easy to navigate an asset, but not necessary
Good English & communication skills a must
Honest with a good work ethic
Down to earth & relatively easy to get along with
Meets deadlines
Doesn't copy other people's work, so everything is your own creativity

What I need done is just one template for now. Other then the html & CSS, I will get all the coding done on my end. I just need the template designed with the menu rouged in.

I'm not looking for a typical web designer, but rather someone who is creative, can design 3D imagery, understands that graphics should relay a message to the surfer, yet not overpower the site, understands colour, menu flow & brand identity.

I am a one woman operation, so high priced graphic web designers need not reply.

Please send me your portfolio, your comments on what I am seeking & how much you would charge me to do the template.

I'm starting off by replacing my current site... http://www.exoticpublishing.com which will one site comprised of a suite of 3-4 other sites soon to be designed & developed, plus other templates I will need designed for my customers, so I am looking for someone I can build a long term relationship with.

If you know of anyone, please have them PM or e-mail me directly.

Please allow for 2-3 wks. response time as right now I am very busy. I will only contact people I am interested in.

Thank you so much for inquiring & have a great week


Michelle
