Looking for artists and website designers

[morganskye]

I need to get LowCoCon's website up and running asap since we've secured the site. This means I need 1) a mascot (for the site and badges) and 2) a decent looking site (needs a forum, several 'info' pages, and a reg page linked to paypal). The site I can update myself once it's rolling. As for the artwork, I'd need 2-3 different poses of the mascot. You'll probably need to comment/email me about the details. (morgan skye @ gmail.com)

As for how I can pay you; There are several options. I can either...
1) set up crafts or artwork of yours for sale in the dealer's room at no cost
2) agree on a price and pay you after we start getting income from the con
3) free reg and crash space if you'd like to attend

Sadly we're broke right now, but it's something that we need as soon as we can get it.

Any takers? Anybody? Bueller?

I vote for an armadillo with fairy wings as a mascot.

...ok, so i've got an armadillo obsession. And there really is such thing as a 'fairy armadillo'.

As to the website, I can do basic stuff at my current level. I'm still in the learning process. I could put together a basic website, but the messageboard aspect is beyond what i'm currently able to do on my own. Plenty of free 'boards out there, though. For MMHP we have our site, then we link off-site to a free messageboard thingy.
Registration page is a problem for my skill level....can't for the life of me get that damn form on Dusk's site to actually work like it's supposed to, so I doubt i'd be able to do a reg-form page for you. Unless there's an example of the proper code out there I could 'modify' to fit the site.

Prod me if you want me to do something websiteish. If you know someone with more site-building knowledge, then go with them. I'm not one to get offended over things like that.

We don't know what we want on the form yet anyway, so that can wait. Basic is good right now. We just need something up to start pimping the con.

And there's nothing wrong with armadillo faries!

How about an e-mail with any details you already have put together? Information, mostly....and colorschemes. Background, text, links...where you want the menu bar to be. Prod me at GryffinVonDunkelheit at gmail dot com. And I think i'll doodle an armadillo just for the hell of it. Or maybe an oppossum. They're definitely a 'Southern' animal. And they're known to be a little on the nutty side.

Heh, whatever floats your boat. I can treat it like a website easter egg!

I'll email you soon. I need to talk to Barry about what he wants. I can also show you some the templates we were looking at. They would have worked, but their CCS, which I know nothing about.
