PSD to Parallax Scrolling Wordpress Theme - Creation & Installation

Company Website Project Brief

Scope of Project:
I would like you to firstly create and then install a Parallax scrolling Worpdress theme from the Psd files that I will provide. The theme / Site, will consist of 5 pages - Home, Services, Portfolio Pages 1 & 2 and a Contact page. So you will first create this Theme from the Psd files that I provide, and then install and get the Theme to function properly on my server.

The Theme / Site must contain the following:
• Parallax Scrolling
• Will also contain various scripting effects, such as AJAX loading effects and j-Query slideshows
• All Fonts must render as per the PSD design
• Responsive; Retina ready & Cross Browser compatible
• SEO friendly – I will provide all SEO content that is to be inserted
• Coded clearly so that other designers can also amend things further down the line if necessary

I will provide:
• Layered, organised and clearly labelled Psd files
• All images, text and detailed instructions of how each Page and item on each page must behave and function
• All SEO content that is to be inserted
• Links to other Sites that will help demonstrate the functionality of certain items

** PLEASE NOTE: I am also open to purchasing any Parallax scrolling Wordpress themes, that you may suggest, so long as it fits the description above and can do the above mentioned tasks.

You will then be required to:
• Take the Psd files and perform your magic on it so that it is turned into a Parallax Scrolling Wordpress theme
• Load and Install this theme onto a test server that I will provide so that we can test that the Theme / Site works and displays as per the instructions – Thus creating a fully functional Wordpress Site
• Load additional Plug – ins such as Yoast for SEO purposes
• Perform any changes to ensure the functions are performing as per the instructions
• Do a final check to ensure it is running and functioning correctly

Additional Requirements:
Where necessary you may also have to extract things that you may need from the Psd file. For example: if you require an image of a certain size, that I have not provided, you will be asked to extract this from the Psd file. This will not take you more than a few seconds, as all images are in Smart Object form, so it will be easy to save out into the correct dimensions. This will not extend the Project in terms of time or cost.

If something does not display or render well, as a result of the design I have provided, I will provide you with a new design for that particular element. For example: if the font I have chosen does not render well, you will then have to insert a new font, of which I will provide.

The above, is to ensure that you are clearly aware, that in some instances, you may be required to go outside the scope of simply coding and perform a few additional functions.

Applicant Requirements:
All applicants must have experience in:
• AJAX loading effects that are triggered by your mouse - This is a pre-requisite for the Project
• Coding J-query slideshows and High end effects in J-query
• Experience in properly rendering Fonts as per PSD design
• Know how to code modern design trends such as sticky and scrolling headers, light boxes and filter by options for Portfolio pages etc.

If you do not know how to do any of these, please do not apply.

Application Procedure:
Applicants must adhere to the following Procedure:

• Applicants must submit a URL to a Portfolio of work that they have done, as I will need to see if you have the experience to complete this Project.

• This Project will be open for Applications for 7 days, at the end of this time; I will short list candidates. They will then be sent a link to a Google Drive folder. This folder will contain Instructions, for the entire site, as well as Psd and Jpeg files, so that candidates can see the design and lay out and what exactly needs to be done.

• If you have been shortlisted and have the necessary ability, once you have gone through the Google Drive folder, then we can negotiate a time frame, depending on how busy you are and how much time the Site will take to code.

• If you have not been shortlisted, I apologise in advance, as I will not be able to get back to you, to let you know that you have been unsuccessful. So if you have not heard back from me when this Project closes, please consider your application unsuccessful, as it will be time prohibitive for me to let you know.

I thank you, in advance, for applying for this Project, and I look forward to hearing from (and hopefully) working with you.
