I am looking to "hire" on an individual to create and manage this forum's avatars and banners/skins (those are the only mod powers that person will have). Since I never get around to making new avatars and skins anymore, and I know people would like them, I think I should get some help with it.
Avatars can be no larger than 100x100 pixels, and I can host them if needed (on my imageshack account). Or you may host them if you want to be able to change them if needed. There are a lot of things that can be done when skinning the forum that I never do, such as changing the smilies and the "Home" "Help" "Search" etc buttons - there's a *lot* of customisation that can be done in the skins, but they have to be done on *each* skin you want them to show up on, which is why I'm too lazy to do it.
But it's not just a matter of myself not having the *time* to update the graphics. I'll be blunt: I'll only hire on someone who I feel is better at custom graphics than myself. I do an average job, so I won't hire on someone who I feel does a below-average job. This is getting to be a popular forum, and I want it to look NICE. I'm not looking for original art necessarily (though that's fine), I want someone who's good with graphics.
This person will be considered a member of staff and if they are willing (and I trust them etc) I may ask them if I can update their powers to include general mod duties, like pitbulllady (who can lock/delete threads for example).
Please PM me if you're interested and be ready to provide me with some examples of your work. Thanks.
