Hi--we are getting ready to send out an RFP for our website redesign.

We are looking for a firm that is familiar with nonprofits/social justice, has reasonable rates, and can advise us on both design and content (including the best CMS for us).

Any leads? They can be anywhere in the US.

thanks!

We need help with Drupal. Can you put me in touch with the lady from New York who's a Drupal Developer. She did the database and technical presentations during the Feb., 2008 Seattle session. I think she presented at the Minneapolis session Oct, 2007.
Your attention to this is appreciated.

Use this online tool to easily create a favicon (favorites icon) for your site. A favicon is a small, 16x16 image that is shown inside the browser's location bar and bookmark menu when your site is called up. It is a good way to brand your site and increase it's prominence in your visitor's bookmark menu.

Which is better? I am currently using Joomla but am not happy with it. I can not get it to do what I want with our graphics and the worst part is trying to find people that are willing to take the time to help me learn to use it. The online documentation is not the best and seems to assume that I know more than I do. I have been told that Drupal is better but harder to learn.

One of our coalitions has a few problems with their website at the moment. The person who initially created the website has vanished, and the company hosting the domain will not initiate the process of trying to contact him until he doesn't reply enough times that they transfer the domain to the organization. They do not have the password to the domain control panel, so they can't set up e-mail or anything like that. Any ideas?
