334553 I Love Rock & Roll - design

I need a graphic designer who can set the overall look and feel for a rock & roll dating site for Australia, that I'm building using OS date/PHP. You need to be a slick designer with a love of all things rock! I need a header design that includes a flash file standard leaderboard size (that i'll swap out for ads later). Shorter term it's a branding exercise, the flash file will be lyrics from songs that fade up and off, resolving on I Love Rock & Roll. Plus a 'logo' or site branding in left hand corner of header. Apart from that I need a couple of 120 x 90 (thereabouts, tbc) graphics for some areas linked from homepage (Feedback / Twitter / ILR&R promo), which I mostly have ideas for - and you should only bid on this project if you understand why I want a volume knob going to 11 for the 'feedback' area, and make reference to it in your reply :) There's also a homepage intro area that needs an image... think rock & roll romance. Sid & Nancy? Someone else is redoing the 'no pic' images, and all the icons etc I'm just using ex OSdate. As for look and feel - I'll have a version of the site so you can see the layout/elements on the page in a few days. I have a programmer to make CSS changes - you just have to mock up colours / fonts/ look in photoshop, but an understanding of CSS would be useful. It's a lo-fi text heavy site for starters, so readability/legibility is important, it's gotta look good. clean and simple :) It's all about choosing the right palette I guess, and it doesn't have to be over the top. I have a number of existing different graphic elements / logos / imagery that can be used, can supply EPS files. They're not mandatory though if you can do better - but nor is it a 'come up with whole concept from scratch' job. For some ideas images are required - if you can't access through available image library sources I will pay (with cost determined and agreed first) on top of $ for job. I expect a bit of too-ing and fro-ing and I'm gonna be fussy - so allow for revisions in your quote, but expect a reasonable brief & direction from the outset too. I'll need to see some work, and remember to tell me where 'all the way to 11' comes from in your reply! Rock on! \m/ Julie
