Hi Eric, welcome to the forums!
Does the IPB web site include a paid work area? It might be an idea to post on there too. Either way: good luck in your search, more details might be a good idea too. What's the subject of the site, what are the requirements?

If you can't find anyone, or worried about getting ripped off (there are too many crooks out there), try Rent-a-Coder. Putting a request in is free, and the designers there who have been vetted are legit (went through a heck of a lot steps to get verified, for example).
Simple designs can be had quite easily (even simplier to buy a $25 ready-made template and just replace the images). The XHTML/CSS framework is really all a admin really needs. That'll save you money for what's important -- branding (logos) and accents (page elements and other eye candy) that are truly original. No need to really reinvent the wheel.
