This should be a straightforward task for an experienced coder who could probably re-use code from previous work. We need a gallery website driven by a backend database to display and sell artists work.
The artists will, once registered, have access to an upload area where they can upload pictures of their artwork which will then be displayed on their page. Art will not be sold directly from the site but the potential buyer will be put in contact with the artist via the site, either by internal email or by mail relay.
The artist would pay a fee to display his art on the site, the fee being determined by the number of images. This could potentially be managed by Paypal
The client needs administrative control over the site.
Artwork and logos for the site have been created, as have the dummy artists pages.
## Deliverables
In the attached zip file I have attached the site structure document and also two reference sites that give an idea of the scope of the site.
The minigallery site, while closer to what the client is looking for is a good reference for the structure elements of the site, but is quite poor in design.

Dear Sir; thank you for your rapid response. Prior to choosing to a coder to work with, I need to know if this project can be commenced as soon as possible as we have a really tight deadline to work to. Are you able to begin the project within the next week? And finish it within the 12 day time period? I look forward to your reply, and would also like to let you know that because of the extremely high response at this early stage, we have enough quality coders to choose from and will probably end the listing early and make a choice within the next few days. Regards Kiedis

Gentlemen; I must apologise for the delay. I was talking to several bidders, but some have had to drop out of the bidding because of the electricity problems in Pakistan,others through family illness and yet more have been unavailable due to Diwali which is why I have had to extend the bidding deadline so often. The project is imminent (it will happen in the next three days) and will soon become live so I would appreciate it if once again you could confirm that you can build the back-end of this site in a 12 to 15 day timescale. I do not want to waste your time if you have committed to other projects. Regards Kiedis
