    I'm looking to have my existing theme (built on old Thesis 1.8.x framework) to be re-coded into Genesis framework. Would definitely prefer someone really experienced rather than a newbie. It's a popular site with nearly 500k hits/month.

    Main purposes of the re-build:
    - mobile-friendly
    - use different body font
    - cleaner code and future-proof (for faster pageloads and minimized conflicts with WP updates)
    - clean up minor tiny design elements

    So I want the SAME EXISTING DESIGN (no design work required from you) but mobile-friendly and cleaner-coded (if that's even possible). My existing site is already pretty good as it is so I'm scared of anybody coding it less efficiently.

    Later down the line (don't worry if you can't handle these:
    - I will want the theme adjusted to be WPML-compatible.
    - Adjustments for mobile-redesign.
    - Fix my coding for Facebook opengraph protocols

    I won't put my URL here but if you give me a way to contact you, I can send you the details.
    *** To moderators...I'm really sorry if this isn't the place to post, I didn't see anywhere else that I could. ***

    Hi,
    I'd be happy to discuss this with you. I'm extremely experienced with building custom themes with Genesis, and also have worked with Thesis 1.8.

    Cheers,
    Dave
