website needed

[opabinia]

Who owns/owned, works/worked for, or works/worked with a professional web design outfit? I need a few simple, well-thought-out, professional-looking pages. Pay would come out of my pocket, so no price is too low. I'd need to meet the person face-to-face. The timeline is frickin' soon.

General comments welcome. For specific stuff, or if you wanna trash somebody else's work, please email me.

Edit: I do realize I sound like a pointy-haired boss here: Soon, cheap, and flawless. Do it, Dilbert!

If possible you may be best off with a template off templatemonster.com or 4templates.com - it's def the cheapest route, if its generic enough.

Everyone I know is pretty pricey and extremely busy.. Like 75-125+/hr and a several month wait.

That said, there are a bunch of bid for contract sites now - i haven't used odesk but i've heard good things - http://www.odesk.com/ - I have used rent-a-coder http://www.rentacoder.com in the past for a handful of quick projects I didn't have time for and had good luck.

Thanks for the tips! I was just looking at a templates site earlier today.

np - a lot of them are scams or rip offs of template monster and others. So watch your cc info, use paypal or a virtual number if possible.
