Currently already have a website http://lat-philippines.com/ but need it converted into a Wordpress Theme.
I have a decent amount of experience with Wordpress and do design myself, but feel like for this type of site, I need an expert custom theme designer.
Please understand, this is strictly for a THEME DESIGN, as I'll be adding the content myself. This should be a very easy job for a skilled designer.
The color scheme would stay the same, except the background color. I need to have the ability to choose either 1 or 2 sidebars that are Widget-ready. Also would be nice to have 2 widget ready columns for the very bottom of the site.
The main changes would be simply in the menu design, with the ability to create menu items based on categories and also pages.
As you'll see on the site, we already have a flash header, which we could either keep as is, or possibly recreate.
If you feel you're capable of creating a theme such as http://www.acrendo.com/, then I believe you definitely have the skills I need for this project.
Overall, I'd like to keep the basic structure and feel of the site, but just give it a much more modern touch, and a bit of Web 2.0 style.
The turnaround time I need for this is maximum 2 weeks i.e. completion by May 21st.
As I mentioned, I'm not a newbie to Theme Design, and am well aware of the prices that are available online, so please bid at your best rates possible.
Please bid ASAP, let me know your estimated turnaround time, any suggestions you have, and show me your portfolio, and why you think that you'd be best for this job.
Also keep in mind that I'm looking for a reliable source to do similar jobs in future, as I have upcoming clients with similar needs.
