We have a retail website at http:flagandbanner.com written in ASP. We want a plone skin that matches the look of the website. The site markup is relatively simple.The skin needs to include most of the plone content slots. All new style needs to be parameterized in the site properties. The skin must have no major rendering errors under IE 6, Firefox 1.0, or Safari. A finished project will be able to be imported directly into the Plone skins directory and used immediately with main content appearing in the white central area and portlets appearing in the left brown column. Tabs and other navigation should be taken from Plone actions when possible.
Bid Smart - The lowest bidder doesn't always get chosen, far from it. Persuade your buyer why they should pick you - and they will.
Research - If John has paid more than $500 a contract for his last 10 project, why would you think he is interested in your $10 bid? Check up on the buyer, bid what he expects, and deliver quality to match.
Read - Please read the bid request - I cannot emphasise this enough - if you do not read the bid request then you will not be chosen, this is pretty much certain. Mention the bid request specifically in your application, and don't forget to repeat the key deliverables.
Innovate - Suggest features the bidder didn't mention, talk about future extensions to the project, and discuss whether you think his or her approach is a good idea. Show interest, intellect, and willing.
