Need a Blog 2.0 Design

BLOG REQUIREMENTS: 1 - Highly professional design that goes along with the colors of [login to view URL] logo & theme (Full Potential is about uplifting, personal development & spiritual growth related subject matter) It woudl be interesting to see a design that merges both tropical (think white beaches and emerald water) with space (think black expansive sky plus stars) Might be interesting. 2 - Highly marketable and fast loading blog design. (Borrow concepts from top blogs!) It should incorporate elements described above: LinkedIn, Technorati, [login to view URL] , Digg, Stumble It, etc. 3 - Every component of the site should easily be manageable from the admin section of word press or CMS. --- I demand a high level of professionalism and quality. I've had two other designers work on this project that didn't work out. (The curent [login to view URL] blog is the product of the last failed attempt) Please don't accept this project unless you intend to do a stellar job on this, otherwise we're wasting eachothers time. ---- STEPS Step 1 - I would want to immediately replace the current design / infrastructure for word press. So a new custom design template / navigation would need to be developed first as quickly as possible. Step 2 -Then add in all the little widgets / etc that would make the site more marketable. Step 3 - Then add elements that would make the site more community oriented. -- We are looking to start working with a quality provider asap. - James ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
