This is a follow up to my recent ppost (WANTED: graphic designer with CSS skills). I've now found someone to handle the CSS side but I still need a designer.

I'm looking for a designer to produce a page. No HTML or CSS skills are required as your design (delivered as a PSD file) will be converted to XHTML/CSS, however, an understanding of XHTML/CSS and their limitations would be helpful.

The deliverables are :

- the page template itself (with supporting sketches or illustrations to show how different elements should be formatted, e.g. how are tables to be formatted? lists? forms? e.t.c )
- a logo for the site (I know what I want for this)
- a mascot for the site (again, I know what I want here)
- icons for the nav bar (8 of them – I have a good idea of what I want)
- approximately 15 supporting icons used throughout the site (new content, updated content, add message, delete message, reply to message etc etc ).

I'm looking for a very specific look and feel for the site. I don't want a standard run-of-the-mill page template. I'm very keen on windows XP's cartoon effect, especially for the icons. They look fun & professional without looking childish, which is the look I want.

I want the entire site to have the same cartoon-esque feel to it, but it mustn't look childish. Designs should be based on simplicity and ease of use. The site will be used by everyone from young children aged 8+ all the way up to grandparents! What I don't want is a sterile, corporate look. It has to be fun, vibrant and simple. Although the site doesn't use Flash, I'm trying to get a flash animation look and feel to it.

Please post a link to your folio if you're interested and I'll send you a detailed spec (after receipt of a signed NDA).

Once again : I'm not looking for a standard design. If you are a web designer this probably isn't the right project for you. If you are a graphic designer with some web experience then this is the right project for you and I would love to hear from you.

I really feel this could be something i'd enjoy doing, and also do great. I have no idea what a NDA is (I live in Sweden, is it an american thing?) and my site is offline since i'm working on the new version, expected to launch within some days. But please send me a mail and i'll show you what i'm capable off

Non Disclosure Agreement.. kinda like the SAS

[Bill Posters]

NDA = Non-Disclosure Agreement
An agreement/contract by which the parties involved agree to keep the information exchanged confidential;

It's pretty straight-forward stuff, but if you've got concerns then you're sure to find some more info online.

Google: "What is a non-disclosure agreement?"

NDA FAQ
