362820 CSS and/or WordPress MU Wizard

First, this may be broken into two or three smaller projects, but ideally I'd like one person. This also may become more of a longer-term collaboration. I would like the winning collaborator to be a good designer, with good ideas and artistic sensibility. I am a designer, but for these inquiries, I would like to say less "do it like this" and more "what can we do here that is cool?" I hope this makes some sense. Now: The site for all of this basically functions in two parts - a community part, powered by WordPressMU, and a photo sharing part, powered by [login to view URL]'s Photostore. 1) CSS wizardry: I need a css menu designed to replace the header of the existing Photostore header. The current Photostore nav is static, but the community site has a CSS dropdown menu. I need them to match. So, basically a header with a sweet CSS menu and snazzy dropdowns. The options will probably need to change depending on whether the visitor is logged in. 2) WordPress MU template. I need a WP template - actually an adaptation or tweak of an existing template or template framework would be fine. I'm open to suggestions. This will need to feature AdSense ads, and perhaps integrate content from a category of another blog in the site. This will be the default template for all the bloggers on the site. I'm not totally sure what the options are for best operation. Clean, crisp, clever and simple. There will need to be spam protections. 3) CSS Wizardry (2): The Photostore from Ktools can use some cleaning up, but it largely a table-driven site. I'd like some analysis and suggestions about how to make it look like a more modern (Web 2.0-y or whatever). Again, open to suggestions. I realize that this isn't the easiest, most succinct description on which to bid. Use the PMB and I'll give you any more info I can. Thanks for looking. Please reference specifics of the project in your reply so I can sift out legitimate bids.
