Nice to have
- This is not a nice to have, I am just using this box to reach out to you:
- Your the experts. We are suggesting colors to you below, and we've also added information on what was adapted to the current website. We are looking for your guidance,creativity, and suggestions on how this site should come to life. And though we have not committed to paying we have full intent of picking a designer. This website is new to us, and to commit to something that we have never used or heard about before is somewhat concerning. Please also understand the member will be a part of our team meaning they will get credit for their work and they can use it as a reference for future work they may be introduced to.
Should not have
- Should not rely on too many external addon/plugins. We would prefer this site to stay code based and not turn into a gui WYSIWYG site which needs plugins to stay online and purchased
