Thanks for the email and all the ideas. My day was unusually stacked with meetings so I didn’t get to view this until this evening. I am sorry for the delay and that will not be the norm.
I viewed this alone and with two other people. I love all of your ideas. Deciding was difficult. But in the end it was unanimous that we go with Pawel’s first creation of the front page (rgw-frontpage.jpg). The only change would be the depth that he put on the logo as that appeared on the 2.jpg. It took me all day Friday to begin to accept the what Pawel had created from what you gave him. But I sought an open mind and to trust that God is using you to do what He has wants. Same with my wife. Now we truly feel it is spot on. I have shown that first page to six people. The only reaction I have received is: “Wow!”
“Wow!” is good. So let’s go with that. I don’t think it is too light. Add the depth/shadow to the logo/name as in 2.jpg and it is there.
I still want to work in the LOGO of the Ichthus created by Canonball worked in somehow. I think that is a special work that Jonathon Simpson and his guys came up with. I think it is RGW. I am anxious to see what Pawel can do with it.
As for all the awesome pictures you sent, the dude reading his Bible in concept_1.jpg and the young folks holding up their Bibles in concept_2.jpg, I love those pictures. I also love all of the other pictures that you were going to use for the montage. Could we use those on the page where we have the picture of the cross in the blue background. Could those change as the pages flow through the site?
We are excited watching this come together. I love your insight and your passion. I wish I could tell Pawel how he made me feel with what he has created. It’s been a long year waiting to see all this. So many people have been praying for so long. Now that it is finally happening before our eyes it is a bit emotional for us. I wish you could see my wife and 20-yr-old son as they look at your work.
Keep it coming.
