Cilla, please keep in mind that a) these are website DESIGN critiques and not critiques of the content, and b) we are trying to select a broad array of organizations and websites to critique.

Well! If you want a reality critique I think this site is way too loud and where is the content? I find nothing interesting to look at or read. In fact what I did find to read troubled me deeply.

HHM said “2. I DON’T BELIEVE I NEED CHURCH, IT’S FULL OF TOO MANY HYPOCRITES.
Hypocrites are lost! If you let them keep you from church, you are no better than they are and you will spend eternity with them (Matt.23:27-33).”

I know there are hypocrites in church but if they are Christians then despite their faults they are still going to heaven. Are you really saying here that if a person is a hypocrite s/he is bound for hell regardless of his/her love for Jesus?

Come on OCC. Can’t you find any better sites than this? There must be plenty of church websites out there worthy of your critiques.

Ok, I enjoy the website critiques as it helps me take another look at my own websites. I enjoyed the last critique and while it was a lot more professional looking the critique was actually brutually honest. This month’s seems less honest and a whole lot less brutual, but a serious website needs a serious critique. This website is not just unappealing because of they have different font size or colors…how about the fact that it is gaudy and juvenile?! The site looks like it was put together by a bunch of 9th graders in an “Intro to Websites” class. There is more to a website than font size and colors. The graphics of the heart with the bread of “I AM” in it is cheap and cheesy. The background is annoying. Please critique in a way that is helpful, because if I was the webmaster of this site I would just adjust my font size and make one (or three) uniform color(s) of my text adn felt that you liked everything else. I would wager (a Heavenly bet!) that there is a lot more to this site that needs professional help than just the font and colors. I understand that you don’t want to insult your hosted customers and may be you sent a private message outlining a more realistic critique but please critique all selected websites professionally and honestly.

God bless all you 9th grader webmasters, you have to start somewhere please start with your colors and fonts..then quickly move on to your graphics and backgrounds, etc.

I’ve enjoyed reading the critiques…this is my first time dealing with a web site and I’m not sure I know what I’m doing most of the time. I’ve been learning through trial and error. I agree the bigger the font the harder it is to read. I have the most problems with images.

I would love to see some graphics about Black History Month which of course is this month. I would like to incorporate that theme into the website for my church.

I enjoy these critiques as it helps me to perhaps go back and look at my website and make adjustments accordingly.
I certainly agreed with your critique on this webiste (Hungry Heart). I usually go and look at them myself and to me it was all too over-powering. I believe it could be much improved if they follow your suggestions. I really didn’t feel I wanted to go beyond the first page.

I really enjoy the web design critiques because it has the potential to help everybody. I always go to see the site itself to see if I agree with the suggestions. In this case I certainly do. The website is passionate, sincere and absolutely interesting in what it is saying, but the hearts and the fonts are too distracting. Nonetheless, I read most of the website and really enjoyed the Q&A page, this was probably my favorite. Keep up the good work, Hungry Heart Ministries…and kudos to OurChurch for this informative way to teach all of us how to have better websites!
