    I really need to make my blog look like my main site. I don't mind if it's really basic page design I just need it to look as if the member never left the main site.

    So in general the same header and sidebar with simple blue green topic title and article area!

    Main site: http://www.blogengage.com

    Blog: http://www.blogengage.com/blogger/

    What should I be paying for this work?

    Also how long should it take?

    Thanks,

    Brian

    Depends really, suppose a atleast a few hundred for a wordpress template but if you look hard enough you could find someone cheap enough

    25$, post ad at SEO forums. you will get valid markup and cross-browser design. It doesn't cost more.

    if your paying a few hundred your getting ripped unless its an amazing skin and you cant tell its wordpress or something but an average skin should cost around 25$ - 75$

    I recommend That You Don't use The sblog script powered by wordpress , it's a bad one really . To make The Blog look like the site isn't very hard but it takes about 2 days or more . Don't pay more than $ 30 .

    Should I pay that little amount because they are copying the style sheet?

    Why do people think it should be cheap?

    Pretty much I just want the blog to appear here, http://www.blogengage.com/blog-forum.php (ONLY EXAMPLE) I also want my phpbb forums like this!

    look i will be completely honest with you .... you get what you pay for ALWAYS.

    ill be short but i know web design and seo in and out and the bottom line is the amount of time that really...truely needs to go into a project like that to see results....which im guessing your aiming for....is 20-50k. So do what I did....do it yourself. Dont be lazy and pick up a book on the subject....not a blog...but a book....you know something that has had an editor to go through and make sure it makes sence.

    or just pay someone to do it 5 times and never get quite what you wanted....your choice.
