Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 12:40 AM

Well me and Valspy were talking on MSN Messenger and we were talking about a design project we had been working on with another guy. The guy has been offline for a while and we have no idea what is going on with the project.  Anyways, Val had the wonderful idea of us starting our own design project and see how that goes.

So the basic plan:

  • As many designers as we can get
  • A domain with an easy to remember name and slogan
  • Basic free templates, with custom paid ones, and premade paid ones
  • Xhtml Valid (If possible)
  • A few php coders
  • At least 3 html coders for the sites if needed.

What we need before this happens:

  • Designers ready to design
  • A domain + name + slogan idea
  • A basic site design
  • A few coders
  • At least 5 free templates upon launch

     Knowing this, is there anyone here interested to either code php, html, css, etc, to design, to help out with anything?

What names do people propose?

So In this thread post what you'd like to do to help, and post serious names.
Also, if you would like to help, provide background information on what you're able to do etc.

Also, we will split 20% With the makers of the designs. 20% towards the site's back account (towards getting better hosting for us, buying bulliten boards to the site etc, For those who thought, this will not be going to my paypal for my hosting Company. This will be completely standalone.) The other 80% goes to the maker[s] of the design.

This means that, 80% Of the money goes to you, and 20% to us

We would also appreciate javascript codes and php codes. Both free and paying will be accepted.

This is a big plan, and we hope to get alot of help from people.

edit: Also, Paypal will probably be the only payment method unless anyone has any better ideas.

Well done Lou,
Many designers will be taken in since this is a chance for anyone who can make a decent design to get into making money. No this is not some kind of plot me and Lou have made to steal designs or anything, we are doing this for real and have the end user in mind.

Some of the coders/designers we want to be on the team are:

  • Absorbation - Has great ideas and great coder xhtml/css/php
  • Shrbr - I love his designs, has designed msgstuff.com
  • Cool Rik - Like his graphics, learning how to code witch is great
  • -dt- - Awsome php coder, will make great part of team

Even if your name is not posted dosent mean that we don't want you to design this is only a first thaught.

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 02:15 AM

I like it. You're in:)

RE: Designers and coders Needed by albert on 02-15-2006 at 02:35 AM

I could help out with designing, but my coding truly sucks!

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 11:03 AM

Design it is. We'll have coders for you:P

RE: Designers and coders Needed by lordy on 02-15-2006 at 11:12 AM

I'd like to help out with coding lol, but thing is i'm pretty busy with school i dont know how much time i'd have to do it, but i'd be happy to be on the team :)

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 11:38 AM

Even though you may be busy, this project will last as long as possible, so you could help once in a while. Depending on the number of designers we have, we will maybe have a few different groups of designers, maybe 1 group would be dedicated to the less active designers.

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Supersonicdarky on 02-15-2006 at 12:10 PM

RE: Designers and coders Needed by leito on 02-15-2006 at 05:16 PM

You should give more to the makers... Since they are doing all the job. You don't need paid Bulletin Boards when their are many other free and good solutions. And a decent hosting... you should get one with $50...

I think makers should get %75 and the other %25 should go to you the creators and for hosting and domain costs.

Well it will all be worked out in time, just matters on situations ect. maybe like 15% add to every template/script so handel server costs.
RE: Designers and coders Needed by Plik on 02-15-2006 at 10:25 PM

I might be able to help out, im not that active on the layout coding side of things but i can help out with any little bits of coding you need :p

RE: Designers and coders Needed by dotNorma on 02-15-2006 at 10:45 PM

I might be willing to lend a hand...

Put me down for CSS, HTML, and graphic design.

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 11:08 PM

I'll add the names in a few minutes. AS for server costs, I intend to host it with me for now, then transfer to dreamhost once we get enough money. as For payment, 80% to the designers/coders and 20% to us Seems pretty good. I want to use mybb and probably integrate it directly into the site.


edit: Names added.

Could you two please post (more) proof that you are good coders or designers. I want proof. I've seen work from most people here but not you two.
RE: Designers and coders Needed by Val on 02-15-2006 at 11:46 PM

Well me and Lou talked and I think every member of this group will have a space on the website like http://thedomain.com/<name> and will have a little info and work done page. And this would happen when the person registers.

Great work for everyone that applied I didn't expect that we would get so many people to respond. Now all we need to think about is a name for the company.

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-15-2006 at 11:55 PM

The names have been aranged in categories.

The prices for designs, will be decided by me, val, and 2-4 other designers/coders (depending on the design and the code implemented into it). There will be a vote, lasting 2 days, before each design is put online for sale. More info about that soon as we get the domain. We will set up a temporary forum as soon as that is done, and we will ask everyone willing to help with the site coding/design to go there and tell us so.

RE: Designers and coders Needed by prashker on 02-16-2006 at 12:02 AM

I can join for the inactive designers :P

RE: Designers and coders Needed by paperless on 02-16-2006 at 12:06 AM

Well..in my case if do anything significative ( and i cant promess i will always be free ) i dont want any payment mainly because i dont have paypal.

As for the proof.. erm.. lol maybe my blog or anything http://paperless.skarz.co.uk/place .

If you need more just ask.

Its really badly coded but i think that it looks nicey.


Oh btw i can share that design ( if someone codes it decently ), you can sell it and everything as long as you give me credit for designing it.

I can host it if you want on dreamhost. also we should setup subversion for the coders (or some other repository thing like cvs... otherwise keeping everyones code base up to date will become annoying)

I now have the money for the dreamhost account, which will be running php5. Now, all I need is to choose the domain name so please everyone, give us suggestions. No matter if you want to help or not. (Only serious suggestions)

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Chestah on 02-17-2006 at 12:12 PM

I'll be a general overviewer, making suggestions to the designs :)

RE: Designers and coders Needed by Lou on 02-17-2006 at 10:23 PM
