A status update: I've had a few offers, which I'm very thankful for. I'm going to keep this open until, say, the 25th... after that, I'll try to decide who to go with.
To clarify what exactly is being asked: the idea is that I present her on her birthday (or maybe Christmas) with the gift of "working with such and such designer on a website." Then when she and the designer have time (presumably after the holidays have died down), they discuss the website and things proceed from there. Thanks for the suggestions for premade templates, but I think the personal aspect of having this actually be a face-to-face human-contact sort of gift would make it more special. Thanks also for all the offers! - Nathan On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 6:48 PM, Nathan Weizenbaum <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi folks, > > I want to ask a favor.
