The idea behind the project is we want to create CD's to distribute freely among potential prospects. All of the CD's will have trial software on them for our prospect's to try for themselves. Some of the CD's will have coupon's on them for discounts off our services. What we need is a talented individual who has experience creating professional CD applications. We want a graphical CD label created, and an application created for a CD so that when a prospect inserts the cd into a working cd-rom, the application automatically loads, first a splash screen comes up with our contact info., logo, and marketing message on it. After that, a graphical menu will be brought up (with our logo on it) that lets the prospect look at the programs on the cd and download which ones they wish to use. As it goes to load the programs, another splash screen comes up with our company information on it. We want the freedom to change which programs we include on the cd. We also want the application to display whether the cd contains a coupon with a discount off of our services or not. If it does have a coupon on it, the cd must give them a way to view the coupon details. We want to be able to change what coupon's we offer in the future. The cd application must have the same professional feel our logo contains. The same color-schemes must be used as well. The CD application will be a representation of our company to new prospects, so it must be professional. We are seeking a coder with artistic talent who can create a practical application and cd label that effectively promotes our company as much as possible.
