Hey all!

I just finished building a dating website. It's a cool (different) concept, everybody I talk to loves it, and I believe it has potential.

Unfortunately, I'm a broke 23 year old, and this project is completely self-funded, so I had to do the first design myself. And it sucks. Pretty bad. I'm not a designer, I'm an engineer.

So, I'm looking for a designer to work with me on revamping the site's design. Because of my financial limitations, I'm looking for designers on the cheaper end of the spectrum--so either someone who believes in the cause and is willing to give me a reduced rate, or an entry-level (college senior or recent grad) designer is a-OK! Additionally, depending on the final cost, payment may have to happen in installments.

The scope of the work would be the design portion only--no HTML or CSSification necessary, I can handle that.

Finally, the site is talkovertea.com. You can see why it needs some design help.

I know I'm asking for a lot, and honestly if I were on your end and reading this, I'd downvote and walk away. But I'd be remiss if I didn't put all my cards on the table and go for this with my all, so please go easy on me. If you're at all interested in learning more, PM me and we can talk more about this and hopefully we can figure out a way where neither of us gets screwed. Perhaps we could barter, and I could do some software engineering for you.

Thanks in advance!
