I'm looking to practise my skills, expand them and so forth. To do this, I'm offering to code people's layouts for them!
The idea is that for a small price ($50 frih), I take your current layout, keeping it's appearance the same, I change the code behind it so that
a) Is 100% XHTML (transitionsal) friendly
b) Minimise the code that is reloaded each page load
c) Use divs to replace tables as much as possible
d) Move all styling to a seperate CSS document
e) Make the stylesheet as valid as possible*
f) Change your layout to fit new needs (NO graphic work)
g) misc stuff
* Some errors may occur due to 'invalid' hacks which are used for cross-browser compatibility
Please post your site URL for me check FIRST whether I'm willing to do it or not. It is possible I either decide that your site is already well optimised or well beyond my help.

will you do codes for whole website?
Just a XHTML & CSS layout for the $50 frih. Anything else like PHP work will be more.
Tell me what you're looking for and I'll give you a quote.
you know Contact me PHP SCRIPTS ??
if you i need one 
Hey, I have a freidn who I am helping out getting a new site layout.
The layout is completely finished in Photoshop, but he needs somone to code it. Could you possibly do this in php for him?
I am of coruse willing to pay more than 50 Frih$ for this, we only need one page.
You name the price.
Give me the image and I'll see what I can do 
Ok, can you do it all from the .PSD file?
Also, how will I send you the .PSD file, can you send me your email in a PM or something?
didnt answer me so its easy to make what i want i know my last replay was little confuesing but i really need that small code
ok waiting for your replay thanks and Good luck in doing scripts & codes for guys here ^^
You haven't specified what exactly it is you want.
Script that allow guest to send me message via my website to my email
Hi

If you can help me make my page more efficient I will give you lots of Frih$
Cheers Possum..
how much do u charge to code it as xhtml strict and 100% tabless
I don't know if I can even do it. Its very fussy and some things cannot be done (for example no target attributes in <a> tags etc. If I do it, the same price unless it takes me a lot longer than transitional would take, in which case maybe an extra $50 frih or whatever you deem fair.
I made a layout for a personal video website and I need somebody to code it (I'm not enought good atm). I would like it in PHP, it's very small :
Home page : with a welcome message, editable with include
Video : The video page (or system) should be like this :
-One page with different video categorys
-When we choose a category we go to another page with a short list of the videos in this category
-When we click on a video, we go to another page to watch it
-On the watching video page, I would like a rating system (/5 stars)
Search : A simple page with a search tool to search the video present on my website.
More : Advertising/Links page
If you can do it, I would also like an account system, veeery simple, "My account" page would show your favorite videos.
I can give you a lot of Frih$, just tell me your price.

The draft is now finished. I have done everything from what you gave me.
What PHP did you actually want? I'm not going to create the whole script that is required to power the site (thats far too large) and the layout itself uses no PHP.

I need to know more about your form. What validation do you want and what fields (name,email,comment etc).
Urban
I'd be more than happy to code the layout but I don't want do get involved in the PHP. Thats quite a bit bigger than what I'm looking to get involved in. You could try bladesage, otherwise I don't know of any other $frih php freelancers (sorry again).
Oh my gosh, you have no idea how much I love you right now. But anyway, I'm probably going to make a new layout this coming week, so if I send you PSD's and a mockup, would you code it? I only need CSS and HTML that doesn't look like a monkey did it (as that's what mine usually ends up doing).
Okay, and this is more or less totally unrelated, but do you do gallery installs? If you do, please name your price.
PS- Also, since some of my layouts are kinda weirdish with lots of odd slices and rather graphics intensive, I'll pay your price for any extra work you have to put in. 
All work on the layout itself is $50 frih. No more, no less. The gallery... I'll install it for $50 (frih) (assuming it will work on your chosen host [presumably frihost]). The layout isn't for the gallery though is it? That would be tough without me knowing their templating system well. (It's possible, just time consuming)
Oh, no.
Just my coppermine isn't working anymore due to something that happened with server2. Something about imagemagick not working. So, if you can fix my coppermine, or install something like gallery2 *shrug* The layout is just for the site, when I get around to figuring out what I want on it and making all the graphics.
Hi,
I need I need a feedback/Contact form. Which you fill out your email address, name and message and it sends to my inbox.
I will PM you my email address if you know what I am talking about?
How much will this cost?
How much would it cost to code this one? http://fashioncore.info/images/newlayout.png
Ignore the blockquote box. It's a wordpress theme but I just need the layout, I'll do the php myself.
Hi how long is the waiting list to get this site created?

I obviously didn't include the google ads as I don't think its allowed on other domains etc. I wouldn't you to have your account deleted for cheating.
What I've done
Decreased the page size from 6.5kb to 3.9kb
Decreased the overall size (css and images) from 20.37kb to 13.26kb
Used text as the header instead of image (smaller and good for search engines!)
Fixed it so it shows in opera
etc...
Please check it out and let me know of any changes you need
HOBBIT
I've stated but working from that doesn't look as good. Have you got a link to the actual layout or a link to where I can get the layered images (the transparent bits at the sides and the buttons?
Relentless
That shouldn't take that long. Do you really want it done though? I would suggest asking around for someone to design a better looking, more professional looking design.
Will you code this
??

Sure thing. Looks cool 
I see you`re good at this, from no wi`m collectiong 50 frih$ for ur coding
i hope you wont raise ur price

Are You slicing too ? What if i send You .psd file ? Will You slice and code or i need to slice it for You, cuz i don`t know how to proper slice for css and xhtml
If you slicing too, how much for slicing + coding xhtml+css, i`ll script php myself 
Well done
Very happy
cheers Possum
@SoFly: I've added you to the waiting list so your guaranteed to only be charged the current price :)
@Possum: I'm glad your happy. Your site was already fairly good, so there was little improvement to be made.
@InsanePL: The more you can provide me with, the better
Any graphic manipulation/slicing etc is part of the layout coding process (IMO) so is covered by the $50 frih charge. I only charge more when javascript or PHP is involved.
One more thing, can i send you .psd now and i pay you when i get cash, i get it fast in 2-3 days:P so you`ll end coding and slicing at the same time i guess if i`m in line ?
It is, but i guess for site with tables only, you should use tables, coverting tables to divs it`s booring when there`s only tables with data.
Hello,
Could you do This for me. The details are on that page.
Incase you've already read it, The PSD File is Here
HTML and CSS please.

Draft 1. It seems a little small. I've had problems with the text as I'm sure you can see. I'm not sure if it's Gimp or just because I don't have the font, but either way it looks crap. If you send me just those bits I'll change it for you. Also unsure about fonts you want..

Hmm, it looked good at first, but when taking a closer look I saw you just used the background image to get the boxes. We could pretty much do that ourselves
We were thinking of a design which puts the boxes in with just coding, since then we could move them around and customize it as we want for the rest of the site, without having to use different background images for every part.
I was starting to think of a slightly different design that we could use instead, but since LostOverThere already posted here and you started making it... well no problem. If you can do the first design with the boxes then go along, and we'll pay you for that.

If I understand what you said, I think I've now done what you wanted. That or I didn't understand at all

Yes, that's great
Don't worry about the text and stuff, I'll fix that later.
Just finish it as much as you want and then you'll get your pay
EDIT: Weird, the boxes have got an ugly grey tone now.
EDIT2: And now they're back to normal.

Yeah, its just because the tone of the background alpha colour which changes when the background loads, right?
Also, nice job.
Here's the 'back to cheese media' text and the small cheese image:

The rest of the text will probably be changed so don't worry about that.
As i can notice, you work with gimp. Have you ever met problems with PSD files and if so, what have you done to fix this ?
I'm asking this because I worked with Gimp during my training and when my designer gave me psd layouts I sometimes had problems when reading them with gimp : layers appering although they were suposed to be desactivated, some pbms with shadow effects, ...
If I'm missing something to get this work correctly...
I recently upgraded gimp and have had no problems with the latest version. Loads beforehand though, I just had to live with them 
I'd like to request for a webdesign as well. What kind of information will you need?
I don't do design, hence why I don't offer it
(I'm not creative enough and can't use graphics programs well enough
)
Could you code me something?
(A really simple login-system)
I'm very sorry but I've just started working and I have very little free time at the moment.
