<![CDATA[I am in need of help with making changes to my website. The website was done in CS2 - files exported as jpgs, I think, and then uploaded to the host server. The web address is allisonaydelotte.com This is my art website. They did a beautiful job designing and getting the site started, but now they are done and I need to take things from here. It is something I am hoping to update fairly frequently, and at least have some knowledge of how to maintain. I am willing to pay someone to help me learn to do this - or, if the rate is reasonable, to do this on a regular basis for me. The design is really nice, but I need to add a category or two in the gallery, so I think that will require re-designing every other page (I'm not entirely clear on this). Please let me know your experience, and your comfort level with the existing design of my website. Serious inquiries only. thank you, Allison Aydelotte]]>

<![CDATA[Seeking an artist to help me tell a big story. Originally wrote this piece as two screenplays with a third one planned. However, as I could not cover the budget (which would be huge) of these...that will have to wait. I figured that the stories would also fit the graphic novel or comic format. It contains multiple elements of different genres (family drama, horror, sci-fi, fantasy, comedy, political thriller). The art should be, at least, somewhat realistic- even though the story isn't always. Was thinking of maybe doing a short section of it to start. Perhaps the first thirty pages online in an attempt to generate interest for the whole thing. Note: The story also contains violence and adult situations. Looking for someone who won't shy away from a variety of subject matter and is willing to depict a range from sick to sublime. Above all...vision should come before style. ]]>
