Help with completing a website

We tried building our site: [login to view URL] ourselves, and thus far came to the point which you can see. We now need the following: 1) Make it such that people will have to sign up first before asking questions? 2) Their IP addreesses should be captured when signing up. 3) People should be able to subscribe to get an email when anything new is posted. 4) A person who asks a question should be able to see the progress of his response. This means that when a person asks a question, he currently gets an email acknowledging that we received his query. In this email we desire that he gets a link which he can click onto, and he will see exactly how far we are on his response (researching the answer, writing it, getting it approved by other scholars etc). If you login on the following link: [login to view URL] and click on 'Ticket Statuses', you will see that I already included the statuses. However, we now just need that to be included in the automated mail, together with a link. In short, it should be shown online. I will login and write how far we are with the response, and the questioner will login and be able to see how far we are. 5) We should have a slot for an announcement. 6) Click on the following link: [login to view URL] a) Just like how they have the ‘Featured’ with pictures, we want our featured verdicts without pictures and only the texts, or with every text having the logo. b) I like the Widget on the side for twitter, facebook and search. c) Can you also add a slot death announcements, marriage announcements etc, like how they have on that same site? 7) Make the ‘Ask a Question/Request Fatwā’ stand out more 8) Likewise, we want the buttons on the Side Menu to be more beautiful. 9) Lastly, any other ideas which you have to enhance the site? Lastly, no matter what you do, the following should be kept in mind: All the above are not 100% confirmed. PLEASE FIRST CREATE A PILOT SITE FOR US TO REVIEW, COMMENT & CHANGE! Site will HAVE to work on Internet Explorer, FireFox, Mozilla, IPads and other mobile devices without any problems!!! If FLASH is being used, please ensure that it is really FAST!! Please do not use flash. Everything you desire to do in flash could be done with CSS3 and, if necessary, AJAX and HTML5. Css3/HTML5 will be the best. Also note that we have already purchased the RS Joomla tckets. I dont exactly have an idea about how much the above should cost, but I assume it will be in the range of $200-$300? Please feel free to contact me.
