I look at it every day and it disgusts me. I am a web designer/developer and the elder of the church made the website and won't let me even try to help with making it work properly at least. Right now it is just a white page with blue links and some photos along with some other pages, but before that it had yellow links on a white back ground. And before that it had a background image that was HUGE and tiled very badly. I have offered my help. I have went as far as making a wordpress theme in case it is pushed onto me and I would install wordpress. I have to agree, it is a eyesore and it eats at my soul everyday. My church website sucks!

I always hear so much about this topic, and it always comes back to "well, our web site sucks but our whole church is missionaries, so it would take a volunteer to run this." How generous is the web design community in this arena? Do any of you guys know someone who would be willing to donate their time and/or talents to a missionary church on a college campus?

Bad web design hurts my eyes too! Maybe it's because I got lasik surgery in 2006 or maybe it's for the reasons you're talking about. I'm excited to report that my church has taken the first BIG step into getting a Cloversite! We had a 2 hour brainstorming meeting the other day and our communications team is currently drafting copy for the new site. We're completely throwing out our old site and we'll be moving over to Clover in the spring. This means our email will get to move to Google Apps too, which I'm totally stoked for! So yeah... just needed to tell someone that would care! :D Hey man. Bad web design hurts my eyes too!

I've seen too many church websites that have so much flash and fancy graphics that it drives you insane trying to find what you're looking for, The bit that frustrates me the most is bad church website design that has obviously had a lot of time and money spent on it.
