Experienced Photoshop Wizard Desperately Needed for Website project

[XHIBIT]

Hey guys (great site by the way).
I'm in desperate need of or or even two photoshop artists so I can complete an overdue website project.
I own PSHomeSource The site is basically centered around PlayStation Home.
What my situation is, is in PlayStation there are stores where you can purchase downloadable content for your avatars.
Each store has specific menu icons as illustrated below.



I was told by managment officials of Sony Home that I couldn't use their store icons, but they loved the idea that I was planning to list all of the available store items for easier online searching on my website.

My problem is the person who was doing the new custom images for my site just upped and flaked out after doing a few over the course of a few days and it was never completed.

Now everything needs to be recaptured and started from scratch.
Here's some that he managed to do that weren't completed.



Its probably about 30 or so images total that need to be replicated and customized for my site so I can begin the task of listing every item by keyword search which is something the other related sites dont offer. I'm several months behind in this project and am desperate for help

You didn't specify if this is a free request or are you offering payment? If you are offering payment, this belongs under the Photoshop Freelance Work (Fee for Service Section)

Sorry I'm obviously new. This is a free request. With some paid work coming later in the year

Sure it will...

No problem, some one may offer to help you out.
You have a nice looking site and I noticed you have an ad there and are looking to hire a graphic designer. Why don't you just advertise here for one. If this is an emergency and you need someone talented, fast and reliable, your going to get a much better response, than asking for high caliber work for free.

Sure it will...

Yeah the graphic artist ad is for smaller intern stuff such as photoshopped cover images for articles written onsite nothing really big or time intensive.

And the menu icons (as told to me by the person who was originally doing them) isn't that big a job either thats why it isnt paid.

As far as the ..."Sure it is..." comment, I think I know full well what my intentions are for the site later this year thank you very much for your rude assumption though.

This is a Photoshop discussion forum to help people who want to learn how to use Photoshop. Somebody may decide to help you, though the person who told you it wasn't a big job has decided to stop helping you. Do you not think they have stopped because they have realised how much work goes into doing 30 icons. If you class each icon at 30 mins to get it looking good, that is 15 hours of work you are expecting for free. Why not download Gimp, and do it yourself, as it isn't a big job, We will be happy to give you advice on learning gimp which is a free program that can do a lot of what Photoshop can.

Where's the spirit of philathropy? You all gonna let that web designer who did the PSHomeSource site for free put you to shame?

Ease up on the comments, people...

XHIBIT,.... your request entails a lot of time and effort to do. And from what I read, you need it ASAP.

Employing the paid services of a designer will yield better results . Half a dozen icons may have been acceptable and someone here could have done it for you. BUT re-doing 30 + - .... FOR FREE? .... is time consuming. And as your site exists primarily to make business profit, certain expenditures from you as a businessman may be needed for the proper upkeep of a respectable site such as yours.

Although PSGurus is primarily a Photoshop discussion forum, its members can go all out in doing free work when called for but it is left at their discretion - as decided by their time or if it is worth doing. And even if you approach other bigger and well established graphic design forums, a request post such as yours would be turned down flat and deleted moments after you post it.
