Heya, im gonna start some websites with games on, and im looking for someone who can make me some games, either in flash or this other stuff on this site wich im not really sure what actually is :)
simple explained. first off im looking to have a online poker game made, where one plays agains 9 other computers in a tournament, where the goal is to be number 1. the game should look something like this: http://www.holdempoker.com/partners/5790/images/img_holdem_screen_big.jpg since ill be promoting that site, only with other avatars.

Just advice man, if you want to be taken seriously, use spell check. If your contracting for something to be done. Know what your talking about.

The best advice i'd give you, is to try and learn to make the games yourself. If you picked up TGB (found here on Garage Games) you can be building prototypes within DAYS. With some readin and posting on the forums I believe a complete novice could create a basic poker game "first playable" within a month.
Everyone who can make games is most likely making the games THEY want to create, that is the general spirit of indie community, and if they made the entire poker game themselves with art, code sounds and everything for you, why wouldn't they just sell it themselves and cut you out of the chain? Im not trying to sound harsh, just realistic.
Seriously, download the free trial of TGB, work through the basic tutorials (you'll need to do the checkers ones for the networking), post on the forums and learn. I was in much the same position as you last year and ive had a whale of a time, and am coming close to completing my first game.
At the end of the day, its free, what have you got to lose? And once you've learnt you can create any 2d game you want!!
Good luck and add me to MSN if you ever need any help!
