Do your have a specific site or sites you think we should look at as examples of what you have in mind for this project?:
(List site URLs. If more than one, list one per line.)

Do you believe it's okay to use proprietary html or technology on web pages, or should everything be cross-platform accessible and web standards compliant?:

It's okay to use proprietary technology.

Web pages should be cross-platform and web standards compliant.

I have no opinion on this.

I have no clue on this.

If an issue arose during the design or development of a web site project where you found yourself in disagreement with the designer/developer, how would you expect that to be resolved? For example, if you wanted graphic, multi-media, navigational devices, links, banners, scripting, or proprietary technology built into the site that the designer/developer thought would be ill-advised, would you insist?

If an issue arose where I found myself in disagreement, I would state my case, but defer to the judgement of the designer/developer.

If an issue arose where I found myself in disagreement, I would expect the designer/developer to comply with my wishes.

Feel free to clarify or elaborate on the above:

With small companies, this next section may not be that relevant and can just be skipped (go straight to "submit" at this point). If the kinds of systems in place need to be considered in the context of a proposed project, please describe. briefly, a little about your existing computing/IT environment. Since web design/development projects can involve file sharing, email exchanges, and other processes, in some cases this can be helpful for us to know.
