Need Help Customizing existing WP theme

I have mandated a firm from India to do integrate new design elements to an existing premium WP theme (Alyeska: Alyeska Premium WordPress Theme Preview - ThemeForest) as the foundation.

They are late on their delivery, really don't seem too experienced or knowledgeable, and my client is waiting for the site to be delivered to him... I am squeezed, as I don't have the knowledge to do this myself.

Basically, it seems that the provider is trying to reinvent the wheel by having sliced and integrated everything on the new designs, while I only needed the header and footer changed for the overall theme. I also needed page templates to be created with widgetized areas to integrate 3 inner page layouts.

I also need to integrate S2member and Event Manager plugins to feed the widgetized areas in the templates, using shortcodes produced by the plugins.

Unfortunately I already paid 60% to the indian firm, but it seems they are nowhere near to deliver on the requirements.

I need somebody experienced with integrating PSD to WP and customizing css, page templates and plugins (I guess thatmeans a knowledge of php).

I would appreciate if somebody could look into this and make me offer to get this sorted out.

I will provide more details and links through PM.

many thanks in advance!

    There is a firm that I would recommend without hesitation, as they have proven to me their capabilities for several years - and what you describe doesn't sound like a very large problem at all. Check out htmlburger.com. Good luck!

    If you are still looking for a designer, I could get you in touch with an awesome company on Elance. Small customizations are probably less than $50 and they deliver on time.
