Was shared with me earlier last night and wanted to see what other people’s thoughts were on the Greater Things Pastors’ Conference website. I think it would be neat, on a sidenote, to start a new series of our community reviewing other websites’ designs, etc.
Perhaps this is the first one…!
What are your thoughts? It’s an “open thread” below, so you can be as honest as you want.
Check out their favicon, which I think is pretty neat.
Go for it.
Live streaming is provided by 316 Networks, a robust online video streaming provider.

Thumbs Up:
Love the logo
Overall design is clean and easy to navigate
Code is also fairly clean
The Site Credits page encourages people to upgrade from IE6, which is just awesome.
Thumbs Down:
Video automatically started playing on pageload
Lower third div seems more piecemeal than the rest of the site (no texture, SBC logo looks like clipart, alignment of the three elements in it is not balanced)
Contact page is just a form. I’d probably want to see a phone number and address on there as well
Speakers page inconsistently links to twitter page or bios of the person. I think putting some time into creating a page with a short blurb about each speaker and links to Twitter and further bio info would be more helpful.
Some color contrast issues on a few headings (most notable on the “About” and “Schedule” page)
Marcus Williamson says
After thinking through it more and more I am starting to like the logo more. At first I didn’t like it. I’m not a huge fan of using crosses in logos. With that said I am not opposed at all of the use. Obviously. It’s the Cross.
Alright moving along…
I agree with Tim on the thumbs down section. Especially the speaker page; http://www.echoconference.com/speakers/
Other than that things are clean and I’m a clean guy. Thanks for the post and hope to see more of these.

I like its simplicity & functionality. It’s not busy & I can find things. It is conservative in its design but elegant & fitting for the community. It would be great to have a link to the backstage videos for the speakers (unless I missed it).
John Finkelde says
Looks like a fairly conservative design for me – nothing really sparks my interest here
One thing In did notice was a serious lack of female speakers!!
Pastor M.paul says
Dear Beloved kevin
Greetings in the name of our lord, Almighty. I am glad to share with you my testimony in brief. I was form in a Christian family in a remote place (Narasayapalem, Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh) to a poor farmer by God’s grace I studied up to +2 God called me to his service in 1994 and I started working amidst Idol worshippers in another hamlet. (Balusulapalem, Calligrapher (Mad), Guntur District, pin522309, AP) To satisfy their idols they used to cut their bodies with sharp knifes, thinking that it is a way pleasing their idols.Please pray for me. In 2003 I started a govt. Organization “OPEN THE DOOR MINISTRY RURAL DEVELOPMENT SOCIETY” Regd no: 240/2003 the following are what we are accomplishing three our Ministry.
1) Revival & Healing meetings
2) Cottage prayer meetings
3) Street Evangelism
4) Tracks distribution
5) Door to door evangelism
6) Pastors Conference
7) Orphanage home http://www.orphanage.org/asia/india/odoh/
Dear Brothers/sisters in Christ,
I am sorry to say this, that is at first I started orphan home with 35 children. But our vision is to reach more
orphans. But now we are running orphan home with 10 children only due to our financial crisis. It is very sad to say this thing. That is why please keep in your most valuable prayers about sweet little orphan kids. If u are inspired by the Holy Ghost please support as much as you can by any means like their cloths, feeding, school fees, and essential commodities …etc.
That will be great blessing to you and your family.
8) Bibles distribution
