Looking for possible help..

[13th_Disciple]

Ok, gonna make this short and to the point..

My little site only has about 180 members.. of which, only maybe 30 are active. That doesn't bother me so much.. What does bother me is the fact it's all "plain".. Go have a look.. http://www.dbcenter.org

Site has looked the same for well over a year.. I loved the colors when I first created the board, but have recently decided that it doesn't say the same thing I want the site to say.. I used to play with photoshop awhile back.. Like version 4......

In other words, it's been a very long time since I have tried to do much with graphics and custom imaging.. I am looking for someone with similar gaming interest who would be willing to help me come up with a design that would not only stand out, but bring the site up to what i think would make it a bit more gamer appealing.. And no, I don't mean solid black to the point you can't even read a footer..

Anyway, looking for a lot more than that, but need to find someone with at least a little interest first and someone I can get along with and built a decent trust with.. If we get along well, then more can be discussed..

If this ain't the place, then it would be nice to have a place to ask these kind of things. I saw to proper place to seek help unless I felt like paying for it or was doing coding.. This goes a bit deeper than all of that..

Well, you got over 3 times as many members as I have so I think you are doing ok there. The colors look great to me. There are a few places that have free skins you might want to check out. vbdesigns.de is where I got 2 of my skins and they were a breeze to install.

Not looking for free skins.. Looking for someone who can help me introduce a totally custom design.. i am looking for someone who is willing to work with me in just about every aspect of the site and maintenance therein.. someone willing to work long hours, for low (read: no) pay, and little to no appreciation from anyone aside from myself..

Would be great if that person is someone who can rip apart vB and generate things off the top of their head.. like I said, damn near looking for a partner.. While the guys that help me out are great dudes and I love em to death, they are not vB guys by design.. We are gamers and they prefer the gaming and the info within rather than the ability to make the site drive up membership.. although they are very good about getting the word out and trying to help get folks there..

I would be more then willing to help, but the only thing i would be able to do is design a custom skin for your site. I wouldn't beable to maintain the site as i'm an admin at 2 sites right now. Also i wouldn't be able to do the work for free. I could do it at a pretty good price. Time is money. Let me know.

Hint: Content is more important then a skin

[13th_Disciple]

Not into paying money.. My time is money too, but there is a bit more to it than that..

Hint: My content is there.. I, personally, want something different.. I have had ZERO complaints from any visitors, new or existing members about the site, the content or anything else specific to the site or server itself..

EDIT--

Not looking for another admin.. I am looking for someone who is a bit more into sharing resources rather than sharing money, admin control between boards or anything of the like.. I admin a ton of stuff too, but I also help people, for free, as often as I can, for the shear experience and enjoyment I get out of being able to provide assistance when needed.. it is a decent feeling I get when I know someone came to me based off of my own knowledge.. and I don't mind sharing that knowledge.. so if folks ain't into the open spirit of it all, then nevermind the entire request..

Hey im right there with you man. I helped www.computerproblems.org from day one. You know. -shugs- just kinda felt like it, had no real reason to help them. But i did. From installing hacks, making styles, and portals. All for free.

Anyway, i know where your comming from. I just thought i would offer what i can at the moment. Cheers!

If you are offering little pay shall I, or one of the other staff move this to it's correct forum for you ?

[13th_Disciple]

Nah Dean.. no pay.. I am not looking to buy or sell anything.. but I reckon you can close the thread as I doubt this will do anything but just get views from this point on.. Thank you..

[Dean C]

If you check theadminzone.com they have a forum where you can request staff btw

[13th_Disciple]

Thank you, Dean.. will head over there and check it out.. seems like a very cool board over there.. I appreciate you pointing me in that direction..
