================================
We need to get the ZomvbiePizzaGirls.com website up and running, and the related websites operational. The back-end code is mostly
done, that isn't the problem.
We need graphics. Even a logo. Everyone has crapped out on us, and it's now becoming an issue.
The concept is "Pizza good enough to give up eating brains."
We get the restaurants in competition over the pizza, the zombie girls decide on the places, the customers vote on the food, etc. The t-shirts can be like "nnnn people gave up eating brains for _____ Pizza" or similar, so the design(s) have to be able to accomodate that.
We need graphics for the website, and for stickers, fliers, etc.
The logo really needs to be a graphic that can translate easily into various media from the t-shirts to stickers, and fliers. The website can incorporate photos, images, whatever. It can change based on the pages and over time.
The website is template driven, layered templates, layered CSS, etc. The design of any level can override the previous design in the templates,
in the CSS, etc. So, the power and flexiblity is there (as is the need for good organizational skills).
I don't care about your credentials, resume, or education. All I care about is your ability to be creative and get the job done. I will read your profile, view your portfolio, search the forum, etc.
Because of the previous problems, compensation needs to be delayed, if you want cash. Or it can be exposure across the site network, and potential other design jobs from the clients/advertisers who need work done. Most do not have their own graphics people, and we send them to our current working list. But not both -- unless we have a really good relationship, and we decide to list you. Cash or credit. You decide.
This is a comission work, so the design(s) become our sole property. If you don't like it, don't bother applying. This is why we will read
your profile, search the forums, etc.
No, we don't expect you to work for "free", but then again, we are not going to pay you a king's ransom either. But, is there a good to great potential for future work, and significant income? Yes.
We have quite a few projects and associated websites that will need logo/design work (using the same/similar template sets and CSS).
How many is 'quit a few' ? MOre than a dozen, less than 100. Well, less than 100 at least for now. We've budgeted $300-$800 for the design work on each site, with additional money for ongoing maint. Each site is different in size/scope and need. But, these budgets are not approved until the project is ready to roll. And, the first projects need to be done, which includes the Zombie Pizza Girls.
Why don't we use our existing graphics people? Well, most of them are simply ad design/layout people, without the creative ability to
develop/design a logo, web site, and unified look. The people we had doing it, became unreliable, often after significant sums of
money changed hands. So, if you think you can do the job, and have a good idea and can help us out of this predicament, we will be ever so grateful, and fair. You might even get a bonus if the campaign kicks off with a bang.

Journal Entry Begins Below:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Over the past few weeks I've set up a number of new groups, the most recent being about watermarks, and unmarked art. I posted a previous journal about it, and got some feed back on "Why are you limiting it to photography?" So.... I created a new group (and would like to find people who might be interested in sorting through submissions).
The first group #WithoutWatermarks is for PHOTOGRAPHIC works, and artists who do not watermark or obscure their photographic work. As a photographic artist, I'm most interested and concerned with this aspect of self-censorship.
The second group
#ArtUnmarked is for all other artwork (by request) that is by non-photographic artists who do not watermark or obscure their works.
Pittsburgh Groups
I also set up a number of Pittsburgh-area groups for Photographers, Models and for Art/Nudes. Anyone can watch them, but membership is limited to Pittsburgh area models, photographers and artists.
Food Fetish
I set up a couple of food-related "fetish" groups for nudes with food, rude food, serving up the nude, and similar concepts.
Fine/True Fetish
I set up a couple of groups for fine-art fetish (without the pornish qualities) and another for "true" fetish which will stick to the definition of "Fetish" as a fixation on a traditionally NON-SEXUAL OBJECT not a body part or traditionally sexualized object.
Others
I also set up
#PortraitsOfALady for images of women that display the characteristics of a PORTRAIT and of the subject being a "lady".
The
#SnowNudes group is for a bit of cold weather fun, to group images that show off nudes in the snow in a variety of settings and situations.

I set up a new group to help get the idea of NO WATERMARKS across.
I'm getting sick of the groups where the images are coming across watermarked to the point of being blocked. I would never have watched those people, so I'm getting tired of seeing them in groups I'm a part of. Many of the groups are being hurt by it, since more and more images are watermarked, and just unviewable.
This group is for people who feel the same way!
Artists who are members are artists who DO NOT WATERMARK their images in an obtrusive way. This will require a review of your gallery upon application, and a decision will be made.
Obtrusive can be a lot of things, but basically the watermark should NOT take away from the image, it should not impinge on the image space, nor should it compete for attention with the image.
1) No DA watermarks
2) No text except along the border
3) Text should in general be along the BOTTOM of the image, horizontal, not vertical.
4) Text should be placed according to the specific image, not to some template
While this is somewhat subjective, it's fairly obvious when watermarks start to compete with the image, and if watermarks are applied by template to the same spot in each image, or whether they are adjusted to fit the specific image with the least intrusion.
Images may be rejected if the watermark/text -- even if along an edge -- touches the main subject such as cuts off a toe or finger. While this would not prevent the artist from being a member, in general, it would disqualify that specific image.
Remember, this group is for the people WATCHING so every effort will be made to give them what they are here to watch -- ART -- not watermarks.
Right now, (even though the problem is just as big, if not bigger, in other categories), the group is limited to PHOTOGRAPHIC works, but if the idea seems to catch on, we can expand it to include other categories, and get some help to manage those categories.
The group was just approved, so I need to set it up, and get some things added, but if interested, you can always watch it, and see what's up.
