In observance of the United States Labor Day holiday the Rent A Coder office will be closed on Monday, September 6th. However, we will be approving projects and making payment verifications two time during the day; once early-morning and once in the early evening. We will resume our normal business hours on Tuesday, September 7th and wish everyone who celebrates it a happy Labor Day.

A big thank you to all site users for helping us win the 2010 Inc 5000 award for fastest growing private company, for the fourth year in a row!

Brief Summary:
  • vWorker.com reminder: You MAY NOT post the final solution for this (and any) project before your bid is accepted and funds are fully escrowed. Anyone who does may have their account permanently suspended. However, you CAN post:
    • On programming projects: A prototype or functional demo...as long as source code is not provided.
    • On graphics projects: A watermarked and low-resolution version of the work.
Need someone to proofread 2 300 words.
The proofreader has to be an expert in English language and has some knowledge in software.
If the text contains some phrases or sentences which sound unusual to English ears the coder must rewrite them.
Platform - Word.

Also, I need a person to proofread program interface 9 screens (English). The program is simple and associated with the text for proofread. The correction of the interface must look like - 1) Incorrect text - Correct text.
Platform – Word or any graphics editor.

Requirements Interview Answers:
To help you bid more accurately, the employer was interviewed about the requirements for this project. Below are their answers. Untitled Page
Project Type: What kind of work do you need done?
Writing (Includes website content writing, proposals and technical writing.)
Legal: Deliverables: 1) Quality of writing: All English writing-related deliverables MUST be of grammatical, structural and logical quality commensurate with written English in a professional journal (unless otherwise stated by the Buyer). If you are a non-native English speaker you are HIGHLY CAUTIONED AGAINST bidding, unless you are 100% certain that you can provide this level of writing. 2) Word document with revised text (you must correct grammar and style mistakes in the original text). 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement).
Other Requirements:
  • All deliverables must be uploaded to vWorker.com before the deadline(s) for this project...with no exceptions. If this contract makes it impossible for a competent person to do this, then do not start this project...but instead alert vWorker.com of an un-arbitratable, illegal project.
  • Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the employer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the employer and worker agreements. vWorker.com monitors all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressors on the spot, so we thank you in advance for your cooperation. If you notice a violation please help out the site and report it. Thanks for your help.

All monetary amounts on the site are in United States dollars.
vWorker.com is a closed auction, so workers can only see their own bids and comments. Employers can view every posting made on their projects.

14 bids have been posted. Why can't I view bids from other workers who are bidding against me?
Bidding/comment cannot be viewed until you are logged in.
