Looking for a premium wordpress design, new payment concept $$$$
 

Most designers on here need not apply.

I'm looking for a custom, premium design with the below specifications/rules. I will pay you what I think the design is worth at final delivery, with a down payment up front of $250. If I decide the design is worth $1,000 I will pay you the other $750. This is a no bull shit thread. The minimum you will be paid is $500 total with a maximum of $10,000.

1. I need to have this design delivered to me with full CSS, using 100% widgetized controls, and a complete drop in solution for wordpress (on any domain). If you need to outsource the slicing/wordpress part of it to someone else PLEASE DO, I do not want a half botched job, or low quality css/cut up. This needs to be right the first time, and SE optimized when delivered. I have paid for premium mainstream wordpress designs in the past that are SEO'd and they make a big difference.

2. Must be of equal or better quality than http://www.thedirty.com/

3. You must be able to do toons or have one created within your own budget, I'm not even going to say I will use a toon but if you don't have a way to have one done for this then that weeds you out.

4. No, this is not for a celebrity blog.

5. The design must be completely fluid.

Paypal payment preferred but if you only do epass I will work it out.

:winkwink::winkwink:

you go jdavis

People think us fucking with each other meant we hate each other, if they only knew :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Oh, I forgot an important point that I kept reminding myself to post and I didn't.

You can not use the design in any of your future portfolios.

Can't you get a design like that done for 2 to 400 bucks or so? Don't see why you should end up paying 500 or more for this.

2 bucks? don't think so Franck, you've been gone a while :1orglaugh

You know what i mean homo.

i might be able to open of a slot :winkwink: hit u up in the mornin

lol

listen, I'm sure it _can_ be done for 200-400, fact of the matter is I can pay 500-10k and don't mind helping someone out if they give me what I want.

If someone comes recommended by me, will you automatically disqualify them? Just asking :winkwink:

$250 is the going rate for a great blog theme

if you're paying more than that you're overpaying, the site you linked is just a fancy header + navigation bar + a very standard and basic layout and could (should) cost only $250

lol, uh, I don't even know you

I simply don't care if I overpay, the economy is fucked and I can definitely afford to help someone out in the process :2 cents:

Best of luck on your search, jdavis.

The 10k is a bit overkill lol. Good luck with this though I'm pretty sure you will get many to bite.

for example from ade

http://www.adultdesignevolution.com/...emes/redabuse/

thats an amazing design, may not be what youre looking for exactly but the going rate for those guys to make themes like that i think is $250

just saying! i spend lots of time looking for themes and stuff so i know it can be a painnnn to get one you like

I have ordered many designs over the years and not got what I wanted but still paid what the designer wanted. I would much rather reward someone for doing exactly what I want in the end and working with me through the process.

anyone who is mildly successful isnt going to care about saving $500 for a custom job. they want the best and you have to pay for the best.

if you continue to think you are saving a few bucks "at the going rate" is the way to go you are very fooled.

so you want a design that is so huge it doesn't load up?

Good Luck with that

was just checking! :thumbsup

pfft, that design is boring predictable crap, I would be offended if I paid someone $250 for that regurgitated free theme

want to see quality work? http://dev1.agriya.com/wpthemes/?wpt...ordpress-brown

looks good

So far not one person has contacted me. Did I scare everyone away?

maybe your reputation precedes you? Just a thought.

My reputation? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Good luck with that.

I think I know someone who might be up for it, but he's jetlagged in Europe. Will be a few hours 'til he wakes up, he's been linked though, in case you don't find anyone by morning, lol :thumbsup

Listen, I don't care if it takes until Friday to find the right person :)

who did the dirty theme?

Could be that most of the people on GFY are here because they can't get a good job because they suck at design?

You're a sig whore Justin! You couldn't afford anything!!

</lemmings>

Good luck man, I hope you find someone good, most designers suck, and most non-designers couldn't tell a good design if it slapped them in the face. Atleast one other person in this thread understands (MetaMan).

maybe but I would bet that a lot of people aren't on the computer tonight :thumbsup

maybe they know you and your mommy cant afford anything +50 bucks

No offense, but if yo consider your example to be anywhere close to the example the OP gave, then you clearly have no idea about what you're talking about. Your example must take a full 30 mins to be produced (plus the toon, which is cool). Let's say 1 hour if the designer is slow.


Now that's a lot better. Even tho it's extremely simple to do, it's really well done on the visual aspect. This being said, the OP example is a bit more complex than this example, which is just an amazing header and some nice graphic elements. Everything else is just extremely basic WP any newbie can build

All the above being said, I'm amazed at how delayed is adult when it comes to blog design and functionality, I'm almost sure most WP themes I see around here are made for WP 2.1 or so. Which is good for us, lol :1orglaugh

(and no, I'm not throwing my hat into this offer, just passing by :) )

lol

My sig sells for a few hundred a month, clearly enough to live on when I'm paying someone this much for 1 design :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

yes, a few GB if possible.. wtf are you talking about lol

it loads really slow. It might be some momentary server issue though. Or everybody in GFY is visiting that page :winkwink:

That site isn't even loading for me.

And no i'm not using dial up :1orglaugh

I can't see how a site that takes over 10 minutes to load up could be any good?

Any way good luck with your search. I have downloaded a lot of FREE templates in the past and see some that people are trying to sell that look worse And I lol! extremely!



:thumbsup

the dirty you mean? it gets a bunch of traffic a few people at a time from GFY isn't going to slow it down

lol, ok I have no idea what you two are even talking about, both links posted in this thread load fine for me

It finally loaded. I can see what you mean that site looks clean and high end.

Like a few others have posted, it probably is just some good header and a bit of work on the rest. nothing worth over $250 there that I can see.

okok try this one --> elegantthemes.com

So jdavis, what would you consider that design to be worth?

Assuming you are referring to the link dial posted and not the one he was quoting, $850 :thumbsup

Well good luck in your search. I don't know of any company/person doing work like that for $850 though.

Please take care of the people you have scammed. :321GFY:321GFY:321GFY:321GFY

If you think that's worth over $850.00 you're only fooling yourself

Do you think the person drew that vespa and the books themselves?

Just check Brian Potter's recent threads history. He's known for charging way more then anything he's made is worth. :2 cents:

As I've said before, you and angryjewcat do some very nice work.

Alright. Let's see one company doing designs of that quality for $850 or less.

Come on, one company - just one!
