This project is to create a web-site design AND set of graphics for live support web-site. The design should be:
* eye-catching
* clean
* professionally looking
* suit for business site
Colors are designer's choice, however no "cartoon-style" colors should be used. Something using, for example, blue and grey, or blue and dark-green, would be good. But again: this is at your choice. The only requirement here is that the background color remains white or light-grey and the number of different colors on page is not more than 3-4.
What I would like to receive is:
* site logo - this should use the same colors as the template itself, should contain text 'Smarter Live Support' as the name of the site and possibly some short slogan (it's a plus if you can think of one)
* design template for first site page - this can contain logo, menu, some slogans and some introductory information
* design template for second level page - this contains logo, menu, second level menu and page content itself
* design template for member area
* design template for chat window
* graphics for "Live Support Online - click here to open chat" and "Live Support Offline - click here to leave a message" buttons
* graphics for Form submit button saying, say, "Submit" - it's height shouldn't be more that 12-18 pixels
* original graphics for "Hosted Solution" and "Downloadable Solution" buttons
Template should be with fixed width and should be viewable with resolutions starting with 800x600.
To ensure that you are thoroughly reading what I've written please include, say, your favourite number somewhere in your bid or PMB.
Every page (except for chat window) should contain 2 sets of menu links (one - main site menu, and one - for less important site links).
Every template should be delivered in original source format (Photoshop, FreeHand, Corel, whatever) and in sliced HTML format.
Every graphics should be delivered in original source format (Photoshop, FreeHand, Corel, whatever) and in web-ready format.
Please open PMB and leave some links to your previous DESIGN work.
Please also state if you'd like to deliver something more than what's essentially required.
The budget is pretty tight, but this should not be a problem since the work shouldn't take more than 2 hours for the guy who knows his business.
However as the bonus when the project is started I will pay the bid amount again just as a gesture of good faith.
Please make sure that you do not use any copyrighted material in this work. And neither you use something seen anywhere or created before by you or something else. What you are going to create should be unique and original. Please consider this as one of the main requirements.
Please feel free to post any questions on private message board, I will answer all of them.
So to summarize - before picking the winning designer I would like to see your past works and know what will you deliver besides what's required.
Most likely I will need more design work with this and other projects later on, so winner of this project in case the work is done to my satisfaction will receive future works without any need of bidding.
Thanks for your patience.
Anthony.
