Several of us are in a position to help. Please say a
few more words of description so we can judge what to
propose to you. It's possible that your needs can be
met with a (free!) explanation or two through the
mailing list, OR you might want to engage one of us on
a long-term consulting agreement, OR there is a whole
range of possibilities between.

This looks suspiciously like you are asking us to do your homework. Is that
what you are doing?

I think even if you've never coded a GUI before in your life, you could do
the calculator in a single day by following some examples on the net. A
competent Tkinter programmer would probably need only a half hour or so to
implement it, so it's hardly worth paying someone to do it. Even if you did
pay someone for the other tasks, spending the day learning Tkinter
fundamentals would put you in a better position to evaluate the code
someone else provides to you.

It appears the tone of the discussion is deteriorating rapidly here.

fresher, the purpose of this mailing list is to provide discussion and
assistance in solving problems related to the Tkinter GUI toolkit and
the Python programming language. List members are willing to provide
advice and guidance to inexperienced developers, at no cost. The goal is
to help inexperienced developers improve and thus further the
development of applications in Python and Tkinter.

Offering to hire someone to do your work for you short-circuits that
learning process on your end, and (as you've indicated) will likely
provide inadequate compensation to the person you're trying to hire.
This list really isn't the place to contract for that kind of project.

If you're absolutely stuck on where to start on your first project, try
Googling for "tkinter calculator." This turned up several hits for me.
Finding some basic open-source code to look at will put you several
steps ahead of starting from scratch, and you may learn something in the
process. As for the second project you are offering, it is impossible to
tell from the screenshot you posted exactly what is involved.

If you are dead-set on hiring someone to do your work for you, then you
may have more luck at one of the freelance coding sites (Guru,
rent-a-coder, etc.).

Well-written, Kevin; thank you.

I have a few personal observations:
1. Commercial language--a solicitation for paid work,
for instance--*is* welcome on this Tkinter mailing
list. I say so, and I'm moderator of the list.

I can think of no examples where such a solicita-
tion has led directly to a paid engagement.
Generally the helpful people here "give it away"
and supply the heart of a solution for free. It's
certainly possible to imagine a different outcome
in the future, though.

I'm even more certain that commercial discussions
have invariably led to learning, generally on the
part of several of us. Learning about Tkinter and
what impacts it is right in the center of the
mailing list's charter.
2. Is there someone who can help me better understand
"... the freelance coding sites (Guru, rent-a-coder,
etc.)"? Kevin's advice is appropriate, of course;
but how can those places possibly have "happy
endings"? In the case at hand, I *know* that this
mailing list has participants who are more courteous,
knowledgeable, business-like, and honorable than the
rent-a-coders (etc.) appear to be. Is there some
sort of transactional-intermediation magic going on
that results in success for rent-a-coder?
