Razorback Reef has moved toward an integrated website and branding over the last year and the second step in the branding of our site is to create the look of our gallery with that of our forum. The purchase of a template was first mentioned about one year ago and currently other necessities of our website have forgone any work that can be done to accomplish this goal. The purchase of this template will accomplish two things: 1) integrate the aesthetic look of our current forum template "Smooth Blue" with that of our Coppermine photo gallery 2) highlight two features of the gallery that are used by the majority of users - album creation and upload of pictures. Invision Blue (http://www.invisionblue.com) us with a bid last year and has again provided us with a bid of $350. The bid will provide the template with upfront buttons to album creation and photo upload in a Smooth Blue Coppermine template and installation on the server.
I would like to say that I think you can have it done cheaper at a freelance place. $350 seems like way too much money just to make the coppermine gallery match the SmoothBlue template. I think I'm going to make a stab at it today. Update:: It looks like th phpbb3 bridge is keeping me from entering the coppermine admin pages to investigate the exiting dozen templates. Update:: Take a look at the gallery now. I vote you pay me $100 for saving you $350.
