Hiring: Long Term - Web Designers

    On DP I have seen a lot of good layout makers working as little as $20.00. Now I am giving the chance to a couple of members to get a on-going job making designs.

    You must be able to meet the following requirments:

    • Make a custom .PSD.
    • Code it using xHTML and CSS.
    • Code must be valid.
    • You must be online daily.
    • You must be able to make one per day.
    • Web 2.0.

    You will be given a niche. Then you will make a layout for it. It is simple. One page layout. One per day, valid code. We require the .PSD and code once completed.

    I want to see recent examples. Active members also.

    You will be paid $42.50 per layout.

    Thanks,
    BlueEew.

    Not really.

    Most good designers here at DP charge around $40.00 - $75.00.

    That's a $35 discrepancy. That's a lot when you're talking about $40.

    Good luck finding someone willing to give you quality for that price.

    Yeah, that's because most designers here at DP are absolutely terrible at making layouts.

    You are acting like I am asking for a $2000 design for $40 which I am not.

    Well I have paid for five designs for one of my personal websites. The latest which cost me $75.00 is the best design I have ever had. So that's not all that true.

    Please note I am not looking for highly complecated layouts. I am looking for nice designs that will fit nicely for niche websites.

    I'm more concerned about the $42.50 that you're offering.

    I'm not a web designer only a logo designer but I know you cant have a good quality work for that price. Coding costs more than 42.5 by itself.

    Hi,

    I am interested in your work very much.

    Your price is really worth i think. I can make myself available for 3 days a week. Being online is not always possible for me.

    But trust me my works will be nice. You can keep me as your backup if not full time job. I also have a image subscription so i can use nice images too.

    I may take upto 2 days for xhtml conversion

    I am also good at xhtml conversion , so you may even consider me for conversion job too.

    Thank you,

    Best Regards,

    Nirmal

    I am sorry but all your PMs will probably be from either off-shore designers or amateurs trying to build a portfolio who have no experience. If you're looking for quality, you usually get what you pay for.

    Just a bit of advice =]

    Good luck though!

    No more designers needed.

    I am going to be working on my plans to get a higher budget per design. :D
