I'm very interested in setting up a regional community web site with VB. Having put together and run a very large Invision forum in the past I'm well familiar with the concepts of a forum, and am an old-days programmer that can get around well enough installing, moding, and maintaining web sites. However, I have not yet used VB and additionally I am no designer and not very good with CSS. And I want the site to look like much more than simply a forum with a nice theme. For example, I really like how far the site gotakeahike.com was taken.:confused:
So, I'm looking for a VB expert that is well-versed in VB, VBadvanced, and whatever else I'll need, and is a good designer. I'd like to do as little or no code hacks as possible to facilitate upgrades (which always make me nervous). I need a designer that is responsive and can take a little time to work with me on features, options, layout and such, in a professional relationship.
Where can I find such designers? Is there a list anywhere? :)
If anyone reading this is such a person please pm or email me (not sure I have pm/email ability since I don't have a license yet) or post here. Please include a link to your portfolio page or a list of some sites you've created.
Thank you.:D
Oh, and also, I'm thinking I should just go buy a license and load it up and start playing with it. I'm going to get a new hosting account for this project. Are there any hosts that specifically have tuned their servers to work well with VB, and understand it should there be some problems.? I remember when I had Invision, I had all sorts of problems that were caused by my host not setting some values optimally for the product.
