Hi everyone,
I'm a French student who is currently preparing my bachelor's Degree in web development, and development doesn't mean necessarily graphic, so this is my weakness, and I hope my English is not so bad.


My project

I have an internship of 18 weeks to the end of the year and the best way to find one is to have a portfolio. Being especially attracted by the javascript (and on a personal website you can't really show your PHP skills), I wanted to make an original site, and I'm pretty proud of it. As you can imagine, only the design is missing (but all is ready in CSS and JS).
I've always been fascinated by the retro-gaming (NES ans SNES particularly), few weeks ago, GMail pop out new theme, including "Hight Score", and I fell in love with it. It's why I want a similar theme, a portfolio needs to be personal, I will not probably designing it, but it have to be like me.


The work

That's the theme of GMail which I referred :



And that's how I see available on my site :


It's just to give an idea of what it could be. 4 parts (Home, CV, Portfolio and Skills) and each one are like a level of a game (here it is clouds, hills, spaceship and a city, but it's just an example).

So I'm looking for someone who can make it real, who know how to make sidescrolling graphics (especially in sidescrolling simple and beautiful, like http://www.pixelprospector.com/indev/2009/11/classicvania-harmony-of-dissonance - ClassicVania ).
I don't think that it is so difficult, as I said, I want it very simple (more detail with interested people of course).
No knowledge of HTML/CSS is required, It's my part (and most is done in javascript also).


More

My Portfolio: http://calvein.dreamhosters.com/Portfolio/ - http://calvein.dreamhosters.com/Portfolio/ (don't blame the design, it was just a test).
You can move around by clicking the link or with the arrows.

I think everything all is say, if you have any questions, I'm all ears :D


Reward ?

As I said, I'm a student, so I can't paid for this, but actually, I can help you with my own skills, HTML/CSS, PHP/MySQL and Javascript OR 30$.

In fact I was expecting you to send me some old stuff you've done.
I think you don't understand (or read) my request, and I think you don't understand what pixel art is.
Thanks for your time but I'm not really interresting in what you've done, so I gonna answer at your question :

Not at all, 20$ is less than what... 2 MacDonalds ?

Anyway, I am not mad at all, you just pop on PixelJoint and looking for jobs without posting anythings you've done before, and you dont read posts :

Your panel 1 isn't a sidescrolling one.

Do you think that what you have done is good enough to put some text in it ?


Well, thanks for trying.

EDIT : Never double (or more) posting on a forum, that's annoying.

REDIT : Ok now I can give 30$ for the one who is interest in it (it is few but I'm just a student).

I'm not asking for a mario-like but all sidecrolling games (Sonic, Contra, etc...)

If by "it's not mario looking" you mean that it's not sidescrolling-looking, well you fail the only thing I've asked.

Links are back !

The exact size is 750*450, as show in this example :



In fact, this size is for inside the bloc with the less details possible (there is text in the bloc), but the border can be as your wish and the background too.

Hey Calou!
I'm interested in helping you.
I like the fact that you know what you want, and you can give examples and stuff, and not just leave all the work to the designer to get what the client wants.
If you are still looking for someone to help you, you can check out my PJ gallery, where you'll find some of my pixelart works.
If you are interested, send me a PM.
