Paid Drupal services

Hello Drupallers!

I'm looking for Drupal developer (individual or organization) that have experience in developing social network site.

I already have the web design, layouts and graphics. Project duration is 2 months.

Many people know us as vhost (see this Drupal node). We provide Drupal hosting and are currently looking to outsource administration of some of our servers to a Drupal expert.

The servers are running Ubuntu (http://www.ubuntu.com) and the required person will need to be able to administer and "tweak / configure" the OS to ensure that it is capable of running Drupal sites and support as many of the contributed modules as possible.

My wife is a director at a non-profit organization that helps animals. They are implementing Drupal for their volunteer Web site. They have a simple home-grown application that they currently use to store information about animals. Volunteers enter the cat's or dog's (or rabbit's -- seriously) name, room number, kennel location, color, sex, ID#, behavior notes (in a text box), etc. They can also search previously entered information, see it displayed in a simple, sortable and editable list format.

Hi

We're using a Drupal 5x system with one of our portals, unfortunately there's no module that I can find which will lock a user's account after 3 failed login attempts. If anyone is familiar or aware of the Drupal system or how it is coded we'd be definitely interested to take this project further and possibly look into payment for your work for developing such a module for our system. We're based in Sydney, Australia.

Here are my contact details;

I am attempting to update my web site to 5.1 from 4.7.3. I've got the database ported well, and the theme that I like mostly functional, but I would like to pay (via PayPal) a Drupal guru to help me finish the upgrade and tweak the theme so it works properly in IE (arrggh).
