Description:

Please go the following website http://www.homeportfolio.com/catalog/Listing.jhtml?searchText=illuminating+experience&index=1&itemsPerPage=439 and for each sku, extract the data from the “See Larger Image” link (for the example sku, the page is here: http://www.homeportfolio.com/BrochureExpress/Manufacturers/illum/brochure04/signature.html) and put into the following format so that we can use this data for our needs. (see attached excel file for format) In the options field, options which are more than one word need to be enclosed in quotes (e.g. White is white but dark purple is “dark purple”) The format is to be used on our yahoo store. There is some documentation located here about the format: http://store.yahoo.com/upload.html.

Also download the images into a separate folder with each image name referenced in the spreadsheet. Zip the folder containing all 439 images. For the example file, the photo was downloaded here: http://www.homeportfolio.com/BBI/beta20/brochures/illum/brochure04/400x400.sigb.jpg

There are some skus that do not have the second page of data. For these skus, please collect the pertinent data from the first page.


Deliverables:
1) excel file with data downloaded for 439 skus. 100% accurate with the source data.

2) ziped folder containing jpgs of skus

3) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased.



Platform:
doesn't matter since we only want the output.

Must be 100% finished and received by buyer on:
Oct 15, 2002 EDT
Deadline legal notes: All times are expressed in the time zone of the site EDT (UT - 5). If the buyer omitted a time, then the deadline is 11:59:59 PM EDT on the indicated date.

Additional Files:
This bid request includes IMPORTANT additional attached files. Please download and read fully before bidding.



Remember that contacting the other party outside of the site (by email, phone, etc.) on all business projects < $500 (before the buyer's money is escrowed) is a violation of both the software buyer and seller agreements. We monitor all site activity for such violations and can instantly expel transgressers 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.
