Description
 Sourcing Type: Outsourcing
This is an outsourcing project.
To apply,
place your bid below and we'll notify you if the employer
picks you
to work on it.
Since this is a pay-for-deliverables project, you will
bid a fixed price to complete the entire job.
If you win and complete the work according to contract,
you will be paid completely at the end (or partially as each of your optional
milestones arrive).
vWorker.com
guarantees payment to all workers who
meet their contracts.
 Brief summary:
- vWorker.com reminder: You MAY NOT post the final solution for this (and any) project before your bid is accepted and funds are fully escrowed. Anyone who does may have their account permanently suspended. However, you CAN post:
- On programming projects: A prototype or functional demo...as long as source code is not provided.
- On graphics projects: A watermarked and low-resolution version of the work.
My site uses Joomla, ZenCart, and phpBB. In their default state, Joomla, ZenCart, and phpBB all look quite different from eachother. I need a template for my site that will make all three applications look like they belong to the same site.
I'm building a small business website, and need a template, including all original images/files, that seamlessly integrates:
- Joomla
- Zen Cart
- phpBB
I will give a few details on color, similar sites, etc.
You need to provide 3-5 rough drafts, and I will pick the one I prefer. Then I will need you to fine-tune the design, and finally install the template on my site. I will provide FTP access and any other required details.
I will only accept a bidder who can show previous work completed that is similar to what I'm asking for here.
Requirements Interview Answers:
To help you bid more accurately, the employer was interviewed about the requirements for this project. Below are their answers.

This broadcast message was sent to all bidders on Monday Sep 6, 2010 11:36:12 AM:
I've already installed Joomla, Zen Cart, and phpBB on my servers. That is a task you won't have to do. I just need you to design and install the templates themselves.

Worker: On pay-for-deliverable
projects, all deliverables must be
uploaded to
vWorker.com before the
deadline(s)…with no exceptions. If
this contract makes it impossible
to do this (for example if it is
for a service that cannot be
uploaded), then do not start
this project. Otherwise, you
may find
yourself unprotected by the
payment guarantee.
Instead, ask the employer
to switch this project to
pay-for-time, so you are
guaranteed payment. If the
employer will not switch this, then
please alert us.
(Click here for more details...)
Example of unprotected/un-guaranteed work:
Imagine that this project is to
install something on the employers
website.
You do the work but upload nothing
to vWorker.com (because it takes too
long,
or you cannot). As long as there is
no dispute, you will not notice the
potential problem. But if the
employer disputes what you did then
we must make sure you delivered to the
triple-point-guarantee (100% to-contract: and
done in the industry exepcted manner, and
by the deadline). If the employer
does not allow us access to their
website, or accidentally/deliberately
changes the work you did on their
website, when we go to test it, we
will see that it does not work.
Then you would have no proof that
you delivered the final deliverables,
lose the arbitration, the escrowed
funds and receive a poor rating
(which will say "testing showed
the final deliverables did not
work").
So for this reason,
you should have instead followed
the above instructions and
switched it to pay-for-time.
Had you done this, we would simply
have checked the Accutimcard to
make sure you punched-in the time
and were working on it. You would
have been paid for every hour
you worked.
- Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all outsourcing pay-for-deliverables projects < $500 (before the employer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the employer and worker agreements.
vWorker.com monitors all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressors on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
If you notice a violation please help out the site and report it. Thanks for your help.
Categories:
-
The categories were created by the employer, but sometimes mistakes occur.
If any of these categories are incorrect, please
report it and let us know.
-
Like everything else on this page, these categories are part of the original contract
for this project.
Web development, User interface (UI) programming, Database, Languages, Requirements, PHP, Other (Technology), Linux, MySQL, Javascript, Cascading style sheets (CSS), Joomla, Technology, Tech details
 Expert guarantee required:
It is crucial to the employer that
this entire project
be completed (100%) by the deadline of 22 days. They only want
expert workers who will commit themselves to this deadline to bid.
If you are not an expert or unable to commit completely to the deadline, then DO NOT BID
on this project.
If you are an expert and can commit, the employer would like you to demonstrate this by making an Expert Guarantee of at least 5% of your bid. (This would not need to be made now...but only if and when you are selected as the winning bidder).
If you complete the job (100% by the deadline), then your deposit would be refunded to you. If you do not, then you would forfeit the deposit and it would go to cover the employer's cancellation charge and the remainder donated to a non-profit charity.
Please note that depending on how you choose to make the deposit, there may be a small, non-refundable processing fee. This fee can be reduced or eliminated by choosing a less
expensive method of payment. Or, you may wish to ask the employer to cover the cost of the fee for you. You can do this in a number of ways such as: increasing the price of your bid, asking the employer to post a 2nd project to cover it (contingent on completion of the project), or by getting the employer to promise to pay the fee to you as a bonus (upon completion of the project). If you choose the bonus route, just remember that due to credit card/PayPal rules, vWorker.com CANNOT force an employer to pay a bonus involuntarily...even when promised on-site. So don't choose this option, unless you trust the employer, or are willing to take a small risk.
This is just a very brief overview of how the Expert Guarantee works and there are many more details that you need to understand fully before you bid on this project.
DO NOT BID on this project until you've read and fully understand everything about the Expert Guarantee (including reading the contract and the FAQs).
