Creating a simple WordPress template

We are a wedding and portrait photography studio based in Atlanta, GA. Currently we are in a process of revamping our website. We are looking for a web-designer/programmer who is: - currently available and is able to start immediately - experienced with creating WordPress templates from scratch We have our new website completely redesigned including styles for the blog. We need our blog to be running under WordPress using our template, styles and seemlessly blend into the rest of the new website. At this point we need just the blog under WordPress, because of time constrains, later we might consider having the whole website under WordPress. Our new blog will be very simple. The main page will contain a list with all blog post (TOC) including only a title, category, date and number of comments on each post in the main column, and categories, list of months and tag cloud in the right column ([login to view URL]). Each blog post page will contain only one column with text and photographs. There will be two kinds of texts, one general, all purpose text, and the other one for comments related to photographs ([login to view URL]). Readers will be able to add comments in a new window. The comments will not be structured. The look is very clean and simple, and all styles are already created and tested for broad compatibility including IE6+, FF2+, Opera and Chrome. Our website is hosted on 1&1, and WordPress code will be installed on the same space. We run two other WordPress blogs on two other websites hosted by 1&1 without any problems. The new web is in a "sandbox", and after all pages are working it will be moved to our main domain .com to replace existing pages. When selecting the freelancer for the assignment, we will be considering the earliest availability and previous WordPress related work. Please, real bids only.
