** IMPORTANT **
There are many available scripts out there so looking for a developer to use a strong baseline for coding (NOT start completely from scratch).
Qualified bidders MUST send a portfolio of created sites, with good functionality. Without live examples you will not be considered.
Project completion is 1 month. Terms of payment will be 20% before, 80% on completion.
Looking forward to your replies.
