Find a Coder?

[KT Walrus]

I'd like to find someone good to code some custom mods for me. I don't really know where to start this search. Maybe PM some coders that have done good mods to see if they are available for custom mods.

So, I think it would be a good idea to have a "Looking to hire?" forum or a section in the new Customer Resources section that allows coders and buyers to post "work wanted ads".

If there is already such a section or a website where IPB coders all hang out and I can post such a request, please post a link here.

It's not the most frequented, but that's probably the closest you'll find outside of finding and asking individual modders. You're free to request modifications there, as well as offer a cash reward if you feel so inclined.

I posted this as more of a suggestion than anything else.

I don't want my mods to be publicly available in any way, thus I'm looking to pay someone to code them for me.

I just thought this would be an area that IPS would want to encourage as helping 3rd party coders make a living at modding IPS products can only help IPS success in the long term. I would request a quote from IPS if I thought I could get their main developers to code for me at a reasonable rate, but I'm sure it is more valuable to have their experienced coders work on code that helps more than one person and their personal board.

I decided to risk posting my request to the Modification Requests forum here. If this was inappropriate for that forum, an IPS moderator should delete this post.

I would still like to see advertisements by individual coders looking for work rather than posting to a forum in hopes that the best coders see it.
