Hi Samer, I'm fine implementing the design, and we can do it together that sounds great. But I don't think it's a good idea to start with a web design without knowing the logo. The logo is the strongest visual element in the whole branding and i think the website (and in fact the entire brand design) should be tailored to the appearance of it. My proposal is obviously tailored to my own logo design, but if we decide to use a different logo then i would like to optimise the design for it.
One thing you don't want is to implement a design and then change things. The most efficient way of doing this is making a mockup, optimising it and then implementing it 1:1 in html/css. I'm afraid I'm not up to date with the current status and have no idea if any proposals have been chosen/dismissed yet. So yes I'm fine helping out but wouldn't want to do this before a decision has been made.
