Graphic Artist with Automation Skills for web store Product Images

We are looking for a graphic artist familiar with scripting tools such as Fireworks or Photoshop; with project management skills to organize and format exceptional quality thumbnails and full representations of products for our web store. This successful candidate will need to take a list of specific products and: - Locate the best image possible of the product on our vendors or manufacturers site. (All images must come from our vendor and manufacturer's sites, and not from any other online store.) - Combine and export thumbnails of consistent size and presentation so as to make them stand apart from the routine product images on most web sites. - Combine and export a large and detailed image the same as above. - Frame, present and watermark all images. The initial contract will be for 40 product images at $40 (USD) for copmleted aquisition and export of the final thumbnail, large and detailed pictures for each. It is expected that after the basic process for creating these images is finalized the work should procede very quickly on new images. The successful completion of this project; and creation of product representations consistently above the norm will lead to further freelance work being awarded. For the indefinite future we will continue to award a very successful graphic artist $1(USD) for each 3-way exported product shot accomplished. This should result in a increasing return in money for time invested, as the work becomes more automated, and the remaining focus is simply to create relavent product 'canvases' on which to export the thubnails for use on our site. Please see the images below for examples of the direction in which we would like an artist to take these. Creativity is a plus and we welcome the seccessful artists best imagination on how to impressively portray individual products on the web.
