Does anyone have any recommendations for local Drupal consultants? My new Drupal 7 site is running sporadically (sometimes it doesn't load, sometimes it is agonizingly slow, and sometimes it works just fine).
I am looking for someone who can trouble shoot our set up and come up with a list of things we can do to fix our specific problems (there are lots of sites with general suggestions, but they aren't working).
I looked around the site for a list of local consultants willing to do small jobs and was surprised not to see anything (I could have just been looking in the wrong spot).

Drupal 8 has been on the horizon for over a year now. It is currently in alpha and will hopefully be going into beta releases soon. For this meeting we're going to try to build something simple in Drupal 8 just to get a taste of what is coming down the road. There will be bugs. We don't know much about D8 yet, so this might end up being a collaborative demo and learning experience for all.

Hey all!
I'm finally making a some headway with a more complex D7 site. I am using Omega, and have created a sub-theme. That went pretty smooth. I just have some formatting/alignment questions.
1) Main Menu. I am using Superfish so we can have cool drop downs columns. I have that working well, but I would like to have it centered in the menu region. Screen shot attached. I tried just making the region smaller and centering it more, but then it gets weird on smaller screens before it converts to the mobile friendly version. Is this done with CSS or am I missing something else?
