Custom Toy Lab is in desperate need of a fix up. I want this to be more community based and so I have decided to make it a blog using the Wordpress MU software. The only problem is I have never worked with that before. I also have other commitments so I am looking for 1 or 2 people for the following roles;

1) Wordpress coder and graphic designer. Re design the site using Wordpress MU and look after it from time to time to make sure it is running smoothly. The aim is to make a cool yet easy to use site. This could be a perfect opportunity to expand your portfolio.

2) Blog master. Someone who can look after the blog on a part time basis. Make sure there are no spam posts on the site. Make sure artists are not using the site in the wrong way. Post about custom events and exhibitions. Get involved in promoting the site. Look for new artists to join the site and get involved with Custom Toy lab.

The good news is that we can now afford to pay for these services. If you are interested in the 2 opportunities above please contact me on toys [at] customtoylab [dot] com to discuss this further.
