Website Design and integration into Wordpress

Project is for the design of a website for a training and development company offering products to individuals rather than corporations. The site will essentially be a Wordpress skin / template which will fit over the Wordpress back-end. The index page of the site will show recent content added using the Wordpress CMS but will have the look and feel of a normal website rather than a blog. The site will have static pages such as "About Us" and "Portfolio" pages amongst others which will use the same site design but will be managed outwith the Wordpress blog CMS via notepad or dreamweaver. The site will be three columns with the navigation to static pages in the left column, content (blog posts) in the centre column, and Wordpress functionality such as the categorisation of blog posts etc. will be included in the right hand column below any other navigation to static pages. We have included a diagram of how the site will function - integrating the Wordpress technology. The look of the site will be entirely different as the diagram was included to illustrate functionality only. We have also included some Logos which we have developed which we may use for the site. We are open to further development of these logos to build an image for our company. To clarify - we are looking for input on our image such as logo design, although taking our current logos into consideration. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.

Summary Requirements: Graphic design for a new site considering our provided logos for the colours, look, and feel of the site and also presenting your own ideas. The design will be for one page only as the rest of the site will utilise the same layout. Coding of the site to fit over the Wordpress CMS allowing us all of the functionality that Wordpress affords. Please feel free to ask any questions for further clarification.
