    Here is a link to wordpress theme that i am currently working on, http://tinyurl.com/34gqd8o (its still in testing mode)

    Abit about the website, specialises in supply of brand new cars, such as Mercedes BMW etc.....,
    Our goal for the website is to display examples of cars that we are selling along with news listings, so the website will be split in 3 main sections
    1. Normal Pages about us, contact etc..... (i have installed Gravity forms plugin and using it )
    2. Car listings..... list of cars to display (i have already created this via custom post types and meta boxes and nextgen gallery)
    3. News listings ..... normal blog function i guess?


    so the functionality/ development we require is ,

    1. Custom home page, where there is a small intro paragraph along with a section of the latest news, and a different section with the latest car listings. I will be also adding a slider image for the home page showing images and banners, but that will come later.
    2. Single.php for car listings, i have created a template for this already but i would like to extend this by showing similar /related car post’s at the bottom of the page, or somewhere
    3. Single.php for News listings, this will need to be created along with a recent news widget showing the recent news.
    4. Stock.php should show an list of manufactures

    would like to see previous WP work from applicants
    so in order to comply with contest rules i would like to see ; visual layouts of the pages mentioned above

    this can be achieved easily by following these instructions > http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Static_Front_Page

    this could be achieved with this plugin > http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/yet-another-related-posts-plugin/ and by using custom categories > http://codex.wordpress.org/Category_Templates

    for the rest im not sure, this may help for the recent news bit > http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/recent-posts/

    Just 4 teens,
    Thanks mate i do appreciate this,
    but the problem i am facing is that none of my custom post types are reconsigned as normal posts same with the Taxonomy
    basically all the standard posts should be under the normal posts and all the listings of cars are under custom post types

    is it the custom posts that are the problem and not the custom categories?

    EDIT/UPDATE

    you may want to read > http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/06/27/using-custom-fields-part-two-styling-per-post/ & http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/06/12/styling-individual-posts-using-the_id/
    using custom styles on a per post basis will allow to manipulate the look of each post, it takes the use of custom fields a bit futher.

    another useful article is > http://www.wpdesigner.com/2007/08/04/how-to-manipulate-category-templates/

    no worries and hope they help, any design modifications that need doing should be minimal. guess i just cost some guy $200 for providing you with most of the answers haha :p who should i send the bill to? lol most of the answers are already somewhere on the internet, wordpress is free software and the wordpress community gives for free, why should you be charged for basic wordpress modifications, if it was custom work i could understand but that work is pretty much basic providing you have an understanding of wordpress.

    i actually live in beckenham now but thats not far from me
