Hello, fellow freelancers. I have a project I've been working on for some time. However, life has thrown me some curve balls and now do not have enough time to finish it fully on my own.
I am simply looking for a decent PHP programmer with experience in writing Joomla 1.5 extensions that can help me put together a very simple auction extension for a client wanting to offer domain name auctions to his users. It will not need any fancy javascript/ajax support or advanced features that you see at sites like Ebay. Just needs to be a place where registered users can list their domains for sale, other users can bid on them and a small percentage of the final sale price be taken for the service provider.
The website is at [login to view URL]
I plan to team up on this with you, so work load should be minimal, however, somewhat time-consuming, as programming tends to be. I can buy an auction extension for about $100, but expect it would need a lot of modification. Also, there is only $200 left to be paid out on this project and would like to end up with a couple of dollars in the end.
Whoever I pick, I would like to keep in touch with you for future projects, as most of the projects I get require some amount of programming, that can take a lot of time when added on top of designing entire websites, sometimes 2 or 3 at a time. So you can consider this as a start to a longer-term working relationship.
My only 3 requirements are:
1. Need somebody that speaks fluent English...Communication will be very important if we're to do this project together, much less any more in the future.
2. Obviously need to be experienced with writing Joomla 1.5 extensions and fluent in PHP/MySQL programming.
3. Send me proof of your work (portfolio) in some form or another.
Lastly, it would be fantastic if someone out there has an extension ready to go (or close enough) that you can sell me up front, with the necessary functional changes...The quicker I get this done, the more pleasant my life becomes again :)
Thanks, and happy bidding!
