Design Introduction
Hello everyone,
My name is Danae Chudy and I am the web designer at Diocesan that will be working with you on your new web project. I am reaching out to let you know that we are nearly ready to begin the design process.
Over the next week or so, I will begin designing a homepage wireframe based on the notes from our initial meeting. Once I have completed this wireframe, I will reach out to you to schedule a meeting time for us to look over the design together.
I am looking forward to working with you on the project and am excited to be moving forward.
Have a great day and I will talk to you soon!

My schedule is very flexible next week. I can make most days work.
How about Monday around 1:00 PM? But my week is also very open.

Could we bump this meeting back to 2:00 p.m.?
Yes, for sure. Lets count on 2:00 Monday. I will send you a Zoom invite later today.

Here is the copy of the school logo.
Hi everyone,
Thank you for meeting with me and thank you Donna for the logo! I have added it to the website proof. https://xd.adobe.com/view/7fb222f0-01cc-44a1-bd18-45fd8bec63be-2ae1/
I will get started on the other website pages and let me know if you have any questions in the meantime!
Thank you and God bless,

Good Morning All,
After the meeting Donna and I pulled up the sight that we really liked and was discussed in out initial meeting - https://www.chadwickschool.org/
The template we looked at is missing some of the background images and pictures that we had seen in the Chadwick website. Will we be able to add some of the background images behind the statistics and some of the graphics like on the Chadwick site?
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Domenic J. Franconi

Hi Domenic,
I will add some images to the homepage and see what you all think. Thank you for letting me know!

Hi everyone,
Here is a sample of what the homepage might look like with added images. In my opinion, it makes everything a bit busy. But let me know your thoughts! https://xd.adobe.com/view/b229520c-ac72-46ad-93ba-d90ad195b465-e77a/?fullscreen

I see what you mean with it being 3 colors deep. What if the 2nd layer was closer to the back color and not stark white?
Hi Donna,
Do you want the background to be a color?

I think I just figured out what is tripping me up with this prototype site. The site is crisp and modern which is good since we want it to last for years to come. Using a new platform is great so we don't look like everyone else out there. All positives. Just not what I expected. After looking at all of the sites presented to us back in September, the Chadwick site was chosen because of how much life and color it had. I know our pictures and logo will make it look more like "us", but how do we bring life and color into this design?
Here are some pictures that depict what I mean by more life. They all have the white background, but there are color splotches throughout.

Hi Donna,
I looked at your examples and here is what I came up with: https://xd.adobe.com/view/b229520c-ac72-46ad-93ba-d90ad195b465-e77a/?fullscreen
Please let me know if that is what you are thinking!

Spot on. That is what I was thinking. I'm okay with the picture/color boxes not filling the whole page if you think that's best, but I do like the added splotches of color.
Thank you!
Thank you!
This looks great! The only thing that I noticed is that the white: about us, academics, admissions... get lost when scrolling down over the white background. Is there any way to fix that?
Yes, if you click inside the menu bar area you will see the “sticky” menu. (:
Hi everyone,
Good news! The website proof is almost ready for the final review. Are you all available Thursday or Friday afternoon this week?
Let me know what works best for you!

I am off Thursdays and will be watching my toddler grandson. I will do my best to engage with mute and no camera. :)
Hi everyone,
Thank you for meeting with me today. Here is the link to the website design: https://xd.adobe.com/view/47cb4acc-cae5-4e9a-95a2-bf336dd4efe8-1298/?fullscreen
I will be adding that joint logo to the landing page where it shows church & school options by the end of the day. If you would like to view how it looks before officially approving, please hit refresh on your screen. The arrow keys will allow you to page through the different web design pages.
Jackie, let me know what Father thinks and if you are ready for the design approval. I'd be happy to send the design approval email your way!
God bless,
Danae Chudy

Hi Danae,
I'm here with Fr. and am having difficulties accessing the parish side. Can you give me some direction, please?

Of course! The only difference is the homepages right now. Use the arrow keys on your keyboard to scroll through the pages. https://xd.adobe.com/view/47cb4acc-cae5-4e9a-95a2-bf336dd4efe8-1298/screen/58930c3b-d6cd-4a66-bd89-b8be35ffefeb?fullscreen
The interior pages will look like the school's... but with church content of course.

Hi everyone,
If you could view the landing page and tell me which logo you prefer:
https://xd.adobe.com/view/47cb4acc-cae5-4e9a-95a2-bf336dd4efe8-1298/screen/01e9d88b-7d20-4fa7-b63d-e4b3eff8b38e/
Click on the logo to see the other option. And if you want to go back to the first option... click it again (:
Let me know if you want it stacked or on a single line.
Thanks,
Danae Chudy

Hi everyone,
I'm just checking in to see what you thought of the landing page and logo? Please let me know!
Next week, I'll be in on Monday and Tuesday but then I'll be off until January 10. My coworkers will be checking in on my emails if you have any questions.
Merry Christmas!

Hi there,
Can you make it with just the round logo to see what that looks like? The box with the names below just looks off to me. And since the church and school names are below, I think it's not too necessary to be repeated at the top.
Thank you so much for all your hard work! It's looking amazing and we can't wait to get in there! :)
Merry Christmas!
Jackie

Good morning!
Christmas was wonderful, thank you for asking. I hope yours was, too!
I really like how that looks without the wording underneath. I just had Fr. Tony look at it and he said he likes the new one, too. He made the executive decision on behalf of the school as well and said to send it to the development queue!
Thank you!

Hi everyone,
I hope you all are doing well!
I am currently helping with content migration and I found the blog on your church website. Are you planning on keeping that for the new website?
If so, we might have to talk about adding pagination. Your current website has pagination. See below:
This will add a little more time to the development process but we are currently under the quoted amount of hours. Let me know if you'd like to proceed!
