The purpose of the website is to serve as a landing page for those interested in my company and to gather volunteers for a beta program that is coming soon.
What I need is the graphic design and coding which would allow me to turn-around and host the site.
The site will be structured as follows:
**Home Page**: a template with my logo on (which I will provide), a bold graphic (I have a photo from iStockPhoto that I like) with some headline copy on it, a little form where people could enter their name and email address with some explanation text, a link to a blog, a link to a privacy policy, along with a copyright notice. For inspiration, see the website for the company xobni (minus their embedded animation, which I don't need).
**Thank you**: the message/page that is displayed after the form is submitted, inviting them to visit the blog
**Privacy Policy:** a page with the privacy policy on it.
The design should be flexible enough to allow for future navigational expansion (including About Us, etc)
I would provide logo, the stock photography for the home page, a color palette (although open to suggestions) and all copy.
Coder would return functioning site (with PHP or ASP form) that I can send to a hosting service to publish.
The design should be accessible and fresh, as this is a consumer product. Nothing too corporate looking. No cartoons or grunge. Want clean lines, bold colors, and an attractive design we can build upon.
Coder will turn over all source code, including Photoshop files, HTML, PHP or ASP code, with all relevant documentation.
