Project Deadline Extended
Reason: We are extending the deadline because we have been away for Easter and was unable to answer everyone's questions.

Thank you for everyone's questions. I'm sorry for the delay in my answer. I have been away. We do not need the site coded. My coders have asked for a graphic they can cut up.

While we don't need anyone to code the site. If the choosen designer does a great job and is easy to work with, it highly likely we will hire them for future work. We have been running a business online for ten years and are short a graphic designer at the moment. It is fair to think of this as the first stage of a job interview.

The target market is Australian consumers. The website is a marketing portal for Australian producers/manufacturers/inventors to sell their goods online.

We will be helping companies who are brilliant at making goods but need some help selling them online.

Each company will have it''s own store on the site. The companies lined up so far include a chocolate manufacturer, kitchen sponge manufacturer, curry producer and surfboard maker. The range of stores will vary. We are looking for an overall design to work from.

We are basins the function of the store design on ThinkGeek.com store and our existing store you can view at www.simplesavings.com.au/store. I also like Red Balloon days and Ozsale.com.au

I'm sorry, we are not going to guarantee payment. Just in case, none of the designs are appropriate. But, this is the third time we have used Design Crowd and we paid for both previous jobs. We are not here to waste time.

If you have any more questions. Fire away. I''m sorry, my last brief was a bit too brief. It was my last task before rushing to a school presentation.

I'm looking forward to seeing everyone's designs and hopefully meeting a new designer.

Here is a link to our first mock up of the site created by our coders. Ignore the graphics and text. (It was the boys putting something there to work from.) The URL is:-

www.bloodybrilliant.com

The stores motto is...

"We only sell goods that are Bloody Brilliant!"

Our goals are..

To help Australian manufacturers, inventors and producers. People who are good at making items and are adding value to Australia, but are so busy making their goods that they struggle selling them online.

Of the designs we have seen so far, I prefer the blue and white based designs, instead of the red adn white. Because, the red ones seem to make the site look more bloody then brilliant :-)

All businesses/stores will be given a Gold, Bronze or Silver ranking, depending on how much of their work benefits Australia.
