No idea what you’re talking about but I’m very good at writing words, on paper, with a biro, if that’s ever useful. Although most of them are sweary.

Good luck though.

(How fucking pointless is this comment?)

i couldnt say i was a PHP head.. or a whizz in any of it.. but i am good a Joomla, Wordpress, and most of the free/open source Php CMS (content managment around) and have built quite a few sites using it.. eg: Ozdoof | Psytrips

Im all self taught and seem to have the knack for picking up things fast and best friends with Google (im not scared to jump in and ask./find out what i need to know online etc) Ive got my resume thang online if you want to have a look HERE

Hmm..I’m a graphic/web designer and also do flash and css..though sounds like you need more of a tech-head. I know several aspx people but not php sorry :)
Good luck!

My husband charges $150 per hour plus GST. If you are serious then let me know.
Quick background: Ten years experience in PHP, CSS, Javascript & MySQL. Currently working on major project for Telstra but can fit you in at above price.

Thanks so much for your quick answers to this search.

webgrrl - perhaps we’ll meet up at the Joomla Melbourne day tomorrow (I suspect there won’t be many women there;) and can talk then. However, we’re really looking for some high-level skills at sns customisation… we’re checking joomla out because it seems to have a good local dev comm around it… but will probably go with a more white-label sns product.

Helen, whereabouts are you and your husband based? We are optimally looking for someone in Melbourne to work closely with.

Lucan - we’re pretty set for sweary bits thanks… but will keep in mind.
Firedrake - I suspect yr right—I think we probably have a similar skill set ;-P but am looking for someone who has had experience skinning cms/sns projects because I think it may be a more gnarly problem than I can deal with.

Joomla? Don’t even know what that is. Clothes, boys, makeup! (twirling hair) haha

Hey neither did I until a couple of weeks a go (I thought dupal was it…), amazing what a bit of concentrated web time can teach you …. I haven’t worked a developer for a while (okay 5 years) and it’s amazing how much the entire environment has changed….

Hi Incognita,

I’m actually based in Adelaide, however most of the projects I work on I collaborate remotely, either via voice/video conference or desktop sharing applications so I can actually see your screen as you’re talking about things you want.

Regards,

Helen’s Husband (Ashley)

Ashley > sorry for the delay in reply (still waiting on hearing from our funding partner whether we can employ interstate) > but would be very interested in discussing with you > could you bubblemail me your email or skype address so we can talk?

webgrrl > know exactly how you feel! (both my business partner and I have kids > hers are still little). You probably didn’t miss anything with the JDay, it was probably a bit entry-level for you > we only stayed for 1/2 to get a feel of the community etc and an overview of joomla (which looks great but probably not what we’re after). We’re still looking because we need someone who both has high-level php skills and a real understanding of developing SNS features and can think outside the cms-design constraints box…
