General Description
-------------------------

A simple yet elegant WordPress theme design is required.
Chosen provider must have some design skills, as well as coding skills.

The theme will have two main tabs, spread over the entire screen (no borders, sidebars, etc.).
First tab will show the user two boxes (large buttons), for different options. Each option would lead to a different page:
both pages will show the user a text box and will allow him to send a message. This text box may need to be overlayed on an image I'll provide. It needs to have two buttons - "send" and "clear" (for clearing the text).

THIS IS the tricky part: these text boxes need to be, in fact, WordPress COMMENT input fields. One page will be entitled "private" and the other "public". When comments sent on the "public" page are approved in the admin control panel (and only for those), they will be displayed in a slideshow on the second tab of the theme! We'll need to find a cool plugin / script for that slideshow.

on one of bottom corners there will be a help/info button, which will pop up a help screen.

The second tab (the slideshow tab) is the default tab. It is the tab displayed when the website comes up.
If a user started writing a message, but there was no activity for 60 seconds, a pop up message would come up, asking him if he plans to continue writing his message. This pop up needs to cover and 'hide' the text input field. The user can then choose "continue writing", "clear message", or do nothing. If no activity is registered for another 15 seconds, then the website turns to the slideshow tab.

Cool Ajax / jQuery effects are highly desired.

Must be optimized for a 1920px * 1200px display.
