Considering how customizable osCommerce is when it comes to themeing, you can really make it look any way you want it to, while keeping the functionality of the core. I have several websites that I have done that look nothing even close to the pre-installed theme. If you are not proficient at installing a theme yourself, there are many freelancers or people out there who are and will be happy to install your theme to osC without compromising the store itself. Best of luck!
If you are looking for someone to actually build you a site from scratch, I have used several excellent freelancer sites out there with great success in the past, before i started building my own. If you need a hand or some ideas, by all means send me a PM, I'll be happy to send you some tips and getting started info. Best of luck!
Thanks RS that gave me a start. I did get a resolve however! Burt sent me this bit of code that did just the fix I needed. Its posted below for anyone else who may be interested.
