## Deliverables

I wish to have a small desktop software developped. This product is to to build some toolbars for IE and Firefox. The same toolbars offered by Google, Yahoo and a few other companies. The interface of the software should be easy to use, so any non techie could use it and build his own toolbars. You can have a look on [url removed, login to view] for example to have an idea of what I'm looking for and some of the features I wish to have. The software will be a "desktop" software, so each user will have to install it on his computer and will not create the toolbar online unlike [url removed, login to view] for the example I gave above. I imagine that the software would just be a simple interface where the user will only have to tick the option boxes he wants for his toolbar, upload his logo, photos etc. and then the toolbar will be created for him as an exe file. Thus, he will be able to send it to his customers or just upload it on his site, whatever he wants. The features that I want to have available for the creators (customers) are: - a ticker, so the owner could send some news about his latest product to all the persons that have dowloaded his toolbar, - a radio player. The final user will be able to add the stations he likes, - a weather forecast (I need to find a site that will offer me this as a free service, except if you already know some), - a spellchecker. For this one, I think the best would be to use one of the sites that offer this service rather than building an embeded spellchecker, - a search engine. The final user would have the possibility to add the search engine(s) of his choice, - an e-mail notifier. Different features I'd like to offer: - possibility to put an image as the background - possibility to change the background color, text color - add a logo onto the bar, of course It must be an easy task for the users to change the news they will send to the ticker on the toolbars. Of course, no programming knowledge needed by them. I don't know if you already built that kind of tools in the past, but I made a quick search on Google with the words "toolbar source" and it is possible to easily find some free sources to start the project, if needed. Please, give me a second quote for an added feature. It would be the possibility for the user of the "toolbar builder" or the end users to add his own buttons to add his specific applications or services. I'm sure it is an easy but fun project for you as a professional, and won't require a lot of time to deliver a full and complete product. Please, let me know where I can see your portfolio. Thanks in advance, and good luck.

## Platform
