Firstly, let me say that this is an awesome concept you guys are figuring out!
My name is Supreet and I work at Microsoft and work with designers and design

Well hi!
We are a group of 3 students, based in Ahmedabad, netting 28 crores
a year.
Now that I have your attention fully, we are a group of mechanical
engineers working on an internet portal for children,
www.dadihood.com.
We have just passed out of college and think this is the ideal time
to fulfill our dreams, hence putting our offer letters in the extra-
logical bin, have decided to move ahead with dadihood.com. Not much
is common between a mechanical engineering degree and dadihood.com,
but dreams are not meant to be steps of contraption.
BRIEF OVERVIEW: Dadihood is a unique live video and audio
storytelling internet portal for Indian children in the age group of
3-9 years. With stories from across the world and a tinge of
Indianism, we plan to tell stories in an unprecedented manner. The
site will host recorded video and audio stories. There will also be
live storytelling sessions conducted by our storytellers through
multi party video conferencing. We are going to spread stories as a
medium of entertainment and learning in a much more exciting way.
Digital story telling in its raw form is still unexplored in India.
There are many sites for Indian children, but most of them are text
based static sites and hence have failed to become popular with
children. Adding a modern flavor to the age old text based stories
from the Jataka tales, Aesop's fables, folk tales and mythology,
dadihood wants to create a world for children where they can let
loose their imagination.
We are looking for a designer who can help develop our User
Interface. As we are a children's, we are looking for somebody who
can develop a very storng visual identity, a brand image that will
help us in future to expand various fields.
We need somebody who has a good exposure on Internet technologies
(HTML, CSS, etc.)
Must be very conversant with design tools such as Adobe PhotoShop,
CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe ImageReady, Macromedia, Flash,
Macromedia DreamWeaver
We can't offer you much in terms of monetary remuneration at this
juncture, but can certainly promise you full creative freedom and of
course a stake in the future of dadihood.com.
Hope to hear soon from you.
Regards
Anubhuti
