here is the e-mail sent out today. anybody who is interested can present a design to me.
"here's the situation:
i have started e-mailing and calling local companies here in the dfw
metroplex regarding web design/hosting. i need to make my business home
site (
http://www.texascontractorratings.com/test/index.html) presentable as
soon as possible. i have the hosting plan in place, but need to decide on a
designer/artist.
i am sending this e-mail to a few of you who expressed interest in this
venture. i'd like for you to put something together for my site. i will
decide which design is best and best fits my needs in 1 week. at that
point, i will discuss a contract with the designer and hopefully start
making some money at this.
here's what i'm looking for: a business professional design/layout, nothing
too fancy (no flash, etc.), something that shows we know what we are doing,
but doesn't go over the top or look like a gaming site. go ahead and use
the content i have on the site already and present your finished product to
me however you choose.
i look forward to hearing from each of you. good luck and happy designing!
regards,
steve"
