Hi! Now that I'm completely convinced that JoomlaBamboo offer exactly the kind of tools I idealize , I'm considering to hire a professional for the development of a custom template, based on Zen Grid Framework 2.

I have a brief idea of what I need, as well a draft of a possible modules arrangement in my website, as you can see by the attchment.



For the feel&look, I like to offer a list of templates I really likes as source of ideas:

Focus, for the modern and clean look
Inside Out, for the sticky column, a feature I'll like to have
Lifestyle, for the sticky menu, another feature I'll really appreciate

I prefer a somewhat dark look, rich in contrast and - been the site of a luthier - with color palettes that recall wood and violins tone, although not exactly explicit. But it may be interesting the use of some part of the outline of an instrument as a source for graphical objects...
For reference, please take a look to my current homepage: www.andreaspada.com

I already have a testing portfolio site published in portfolio.andreaspada.com, using the focus template. A look that somewhat recall Focus its really welcome.

Of course, I wish to use Zentools, Microblog and JBType. Probably I'll continue to use some already used plugin, as joomlaworks Simple Image Gallery Pro and All Video. Not sure about K2, although I'll need a tag or another tool to relate my instruments to each other...

I'd like to receive some economical proposals.

Thanks for your attention,
Andrea

Just and addendum. I think I can take the responsibility for the graphical objects of the site. What I cannot do is the coding of the modules positions, basic framework structural arrangement and div basics.

For the task of just code the base of the template, giving me a platform to get the content display, with no graphical work, I'm thinking in offering something like 400 USD. For a complete job, maybe 800 USD...

Please, if someone have an offer, I'll really appreciate.

I'm considering also a development subscription to joomlabamboo and hiring directly some joomlabamboo collaborator. I also don't mind if my template development could be part of the templates offered by joomlabamboo...

Thanks,
Andrea
