New Website Proofs St. Mary's - Oskaloosa, IA

Hi Everyone,

My name is Blake Stapleton, and I am the designer who has been working on creating some proofs for your new church website. 

I had a great conversation with Suzy this afternoon and showed her some of the mock ups. I was thrilled to hear that she likes the way the design is going and am excited to continue. 

The design is not completely finished yet so I am still working on it currently. But here is a link so you all can preview where the design is at: http://prevue.link/yYxm

These are the mock ups included: 
  • Homepage mock up
  • a mock up of what the sub menu items would look like on the navigation on the homepage / contact us email button
  • an Interior page mock up
  • Styles Page.
*Keep in mind these are a not live sites. They are static images, and the content (pictures, text, etc.) are all subject to change and once built will be responsive.

I hope you all like the way the design is going. If you have questions, please don't hesitate to ask me, I will be happy to explain more for you. I will continue working on completing the design, and please call or email with any changes you would like to see moving forward. I am looking forward to speaking with you and moving forward with the project. Have a great day and I will talk to you soon.

Best,

Blake Stapleton

Blake,

Thank you for this update contact as to St Mary, Oskaloosa's proposed website. What I believe is important for us as staff is to be able to easily add, delete, and correct information on our site. This I believe has been lacking. The back ground pictire of the interior of the church is dated and does not reflect the present look of the church interior.

I have Cc. Suzy Lopez our Office Administator and Samantha Ridder our Dir. Of Faith Formation and Youth Ministry on this reply as these are the other two in addition to myself (pastor) who are on our parish staff team.

TO THE CLIENT Blake Stapleton, Web Designer  at Diocesan
Hi Fr. John, 

You are very welcome. I will continue to work hard to design something you all love.

The ability to easily add, delete, and correct information on our new site are features you will absolutely have. After we have design approval and the developers have built you a live site we do a training for whoever is going to be the admins. of the site on how to use, edit, and maintain it. 

The interior shot I used for the main picture was an image we had on file we've used for the bulletin. That image can be changed for sure, its just to give a sense of what that main header area can look like. If you guys have any high resolution images of the interior or other photos please feel free to send those on to me. 

Let me know if you have any questions and I will be happy to help. I will continue working on the design and send the proof out to you very soon. Have a great day, and I will talk to you soon.

Best,

Blake Stapleton
