Default buttons and color quote

This is a thread, I tried to add to it and got the following error

"The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 2 characters."

Not sure what that is about, but there is definitely more characters there.

I recall sending you a quote on these buttons a while back, yes. What was it on these search buttons you would like changed? A simple redesign? Please clarify.
I'm not sure what you mean by, "also need a same button set up for just under the flash on my main page." What buttons are you thinking of placing here?

(c) Under the flash are mls,buying selling listings, etc. I am thinking that if those were buttons they may be more visible to people. I have a high bounce rate and think that maybe buttons might give people another simple visual way to get what they want, they property information.
Sounds good. Changing the colour scheme in your leftnav would take 30 minutes design. Coming up with a couple colour combinations would take approximately another 30 minutes design.

Please clarify the above, and we'll be able to better supply you with a total estimate.

Thank you.

This is request for quote we are trying to refine with Moriah. It involves a few different options.

Yes, this is correct.

That makes sense. So we are duplicating the look of the "Search Bar" snippet you've created, and applying this styling onto the buttons directly underneath your Flash slideshow?This would take 1 hour design.

Please approve the necessary hours above, and we'll have billing contact you.

Thank you.

Approved, do the button design- please send ideas- maybe what has been done before for approval and wait for the color until I have the nav color in place. I am thinking a gradient color of something that meshes with the new nav color and the background which is sort of an aquamarine color, as we are a seaside community. thanks

Hi Gregg,

There may be a misunderstanding.

In regards to the buttons (nav) underneath the Flash, I quoted this as being a duplicate style of the "search-bar" snippet that you have created within your CMS. From the sounds of it it, you'd actually like us to redesign this "search-bar" snippet and duplicate that style onto the buttons (nav) underneath the slideshow? Please clarify. May need to re-quote.

Thank you.

Yes, my intent is to have duplication of design so that the snippet search bar has the same buttons and color as the ones that would reside where there is currently just text under the flash on my main page. One thing will be on the main page programming so that these buttons are on all pages, and the other is for the snippet search bar. The button design will be consistent, but there will be main page programming and design code we need to put in our snippet.

So, just to clarify - this is a redesign of the buttons underneath the slideshow as well as the search-bar snippet - using the same style?

Yes, that is what I want. I think it will give symmetry and an economy of design.I want to get the button design done, so that when we have the nave color job done, I ( we) can select a fitting color for them.

Let's see if I have this right:

1) Redesign of the buttons underneath the slideshow as well as the search-bar snippet - using the same style. I mis-quoted this above. Since we'll be redesigning these links into custom buttons, it would take atleast 2 hours design.

2) Clarification needed - From my understanding, you are requesting to have the search-bar snippet added immediately below the search buttons consistently on every page? Do you want the ability to add remove this snippet from certain pages, or have it globally within all pages of the template, and only editable through the snippet? Either way, this would probably take 30 minutes programming/design.

Please approve the above 2.5 hours design, and we'll have billing contact you.

Thank you.
