Custom MODx business template

Hello.

I am in need of a custom template for a small organizing business, ready for me to integrate with MODx.

I will include a top drop-down menu with rollover & maybe click effects, also a sidemenu using the appropriate MODx snippets to indicate which page.

A centered content area with shadows left and right, on a light gray background. 1 column for the index page, 2 and 3 columns for others. A header with the ability to add a glossy background image.. custom logo, and contact info.\

Navigation on the right side, with ’content boxes’ like mollio has on the left side of the 3 column layout.

Also, I would like the template to allow for some degree of user text resizing without breaking up.

I would prefer to have this done faster than I could learn more about MODx template & put the pieces together myself - so if you think you can help, or know a good source who can, feel free to let me know and clue me in on a rough cost!

Since templates are so very easy to integrate into MODx, I would also suggest posting this request on opendesigns.org. Also, if you aren’t 100% set on having a custom template, these templates are pretty close to some of your requirements:

Hi Jesse, I appreciate your reply!

I’ve seen mention of integrating existing templates into MODx, but it seems like adapting the drop down & context sensitive side menus would be more involved. Also, altering ccs styling to meet the requirements.

In any case, it seems these templates are worth a lot.. I may need to do it myself anyway.

Anything further would be great!

In case of Multiflex-3, it has already been ported to MODx. http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php?topic=10171.0 That should at least let you see how to template Wayfinder to get a dropdown to work. Also the context specific sidebar is relatively easy too. When you get to that point, if you get stuck on anything, feel free to ask.
