Website Designer / Photoshop Genius

USA

This job is no longer available. But don't worry - we have lots of new freelance jobs for you!

Budget: $100 to $500

ABOUT US
Our company provides websites for a specific industry. We have been in business for 20+ years. We are established and stable.

ABOUT OUR PROJECTS
We have 18 different website templates we have provided for our customers' use. We are looking for several designers to "adopt" a website, to update and freshen the website's design.

Note: each website has it's own budget, depending on the amount of work required to complete the overhaul. Sorry to be vague here, but we don't know how to give budgets for multiple projects.

OUR EXPECTATIONS
We need top level designers who can do great work and hit deadlines. This is really a great gig for the right designer. When updating the websites the underlying functionality will remain untouched; the only thing that's changing is the appearance. Two good analogies are a change in an automobile model (the chassis and engine are still in place, it's a new body that's attached to the chassis and engine), and a jigsaw puzzle (you can take one piece out as long as you replace it with another piece of the exact same size and shape).

Our expectation is that the designer will update the individual graphics on their adopted website with graphics that are the exact same size. For example, if the original graphic it named curve_07.gif and is 788 x 90 pixels, the replacement graphic needs to be named curve_07.gif and it needs to be exactly 788 x 90 pixels. We can provide direct FTP access to the original images on a development site, allowing the designer to experiment with these changes in real time.

TIMELINE
We would be ready to move very soon.

CONCERNS
We feel somewhat awkward saying this, but our products have a strong bias for the American business culture. We are not sure a Non-native American, Canadian or British designer would fit. The focus of our websites is a B2B market, although they do see plenty of B2C use as well. And honestly we are new to offsite designers, and don't know exactly what we're getting into - but the concept sounds great and we are very excited to proceed.
