Fursuit Trade for Website development/design/etc

[NightFell]

Hey all! I've posted a similar entry almost a year ago over on FursuitAuctions on LJ. Unfortunately the trade did not work out due to spotty communication and lack of substantive work being done. I realized I made a choice only based on prior work without actually screening anyone so this time things will be a little different :P

I'm interested in getting a website set up for my art and costume making. I have basic skills in html formatting and have used a variety of free web hosting sites but would like a website that looks more organic then just a customized template. Example of what I'm looking for: http://www.likeshine.com/ I'm willing trade off from fursuit parts to a head to even a partial or fullsuit depending on what you can offer me customization and design-wise. Examples of some of my work: http://www.flickr.com/photos/nightfell/sets/ I have more not yet posted, please inquire if you'd like to see additional projects.

If interested, please send me (the.nightfell[at]gmail.com) examples of your previous work and what would like in return for your work, and finally a rough visual concept of what you had in mind for the trade. I'll be screening trades based on the following criteria:

- Primary site colors would be grays and blues.
- I'm open to themes like Celtic, Artsy, and others as well.
- Neat, professional feel. Easy to navigate.
- Page links for Home, Gallery, Commissions, Terms of Service at minimum.

I apologize in advance if this seems a little overdone, but my previous trade experience suffered from lack of professionalism in the project. Hopefully it won't happen again (x

I'm open to learning, and would definitely appreciate your help (: I've tinkered with templates but never had any direction so maybe what I do need is a good tutor and an overview of the basics. lol

HTML seemed like the place to start, I'll give you a poke on FA for your email and we can chat there. Thanks in advance for your help!

Try learning to use Microsoft Frontpage. It's easy enough to build pages with it
