CWC Website Design

Cornerstone is looking to refresh our website design with an updated current look. We would prefer to keep the site as a fixed width site with a maximum width of 960px wide. Would like to incorporate some elements of flash. We need your help designing a layout that will have a logical, intuitive structure and visually appealing with easy navigation in mind.

We are a progressive, multi-cultural, contemporary church looking for a knock-your-socks-off site design. We would like an easy to navigate design that needs to be visually appealing. We would like the overall look to flow with our current CWC logo and Mission logo, click here to see.

The Site will need the following Pages:
1. About Us- Welcome Letter/Service Times/Directions/Our Pastors/Our Story/Purpose/Staff
2. How to get Involved-

3. News- Calendar/Events/Video Annoucements
4. Ministries- Nursery/Preschool/Noah's Place/Kidz On the Rock/Full Force Youth/Outreach/Music
5.Members- Online Giving/Business Directory/Share Your Testimony/Prayer Requests/Pastor's Blog
6.Media-Online Store/
The site will require a separate section design for the Youth page, Children's page, music page, and Cornerstone Christian Academy page. These pages will need to have the following:
1.Music- About Us/ Resources/Pics/
2.Full Force Youth- Home/About Us/Contact/Events/Pictures
3.Children's Page- Imagination Station/Events/Music Corner/Food 4 Your Soul
4.Cornerstone Christian Academy- PreSchool/Elementary/High School/Application

We would like the site to be composed of these 5 distinct sections. Identified and accessible thru navigation tabs. They would lead to - Home, Youth, Children, Worship and Academy. We need a separate section design for the Youth page, Children's page, music page, and Cornerstone Christian Academy page. Each of the 5 main sections needs to uniquely reflect the focus of its Ministry, yet maintain some essential characteristics of the overall look and feel of the Church web site. We are looking for unique banners for each of the 5 main sections. All pages need content areas that can be maintained by us (we will insert and change pictures and text in the content areas).

The following websites are some that we like and would like to use elements from:
http://www.churchofthehighlands.com
http://www.waio.org
http://www.edyoung.com
http://www.whc.rodparsley.com (Navigation bar)

- Navigation bar
- Visually appealing
- Easy and intuitive to navigate
- Links to our on-line store and shopping cart
- Some flash
- An overall look that will flow with our current CWC logo and our Mission logo, click here to see.

- Heavy flash
- Needs to be able to have content updated but nothing that will require extensive graphics.
