Ask HN: Best place to hire Web Contractors?

[jdavid]

At work, we are looking for a few contractors to help get a few things done with the site. They have just been sitting on the shelf too long.

Where is the best place to find web contractors?

Right now we are looking for a PHPBB3 theme expert.

Here's a HN topic about contractors: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1262467 and the list: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AlD_6iEb8Ed9dGs3clV...

what does elance have that you want that craigslist doesn't? This is relevant to my interests, as I'm kinda sortof toying with the idea of setting up a job board myself.

* craigslist

* referrals aka friends-of-friends
