St. John's Ev. Lutheran needed a website that could host information for both their church and school. Using iMinistries' Ministry Feature, they were able to create ministries for their church and display their school's classrooms. The result is two sites in one.
They chose the Simple skin for a clean, classic look and added a customized image on their front page to make it pop.
The “buzz” is starting… the “word” about the site and the 3/31/10 launch date continues to spread… many people are getting VERY excited about the website coming to fruition!...
Thanks...for helping Gary, Millie, and I build a strong, solid foundation for this website and making it become a reality.

St. John's Ev. Lutheran Church and School  ColouriseThis skin is one of my favorites right now. I found it on http://www.styleshout.com/ and added it to our free skins this week. You can see it running in our system by going to http://demo2.iministries.org. With the black background and the reversed type face, well...I really think that it pops. Allow us to provide you with a great website system with a great look today! If you like this design, it is called Colourise. You simply have to select it from your Site Preferences.

 OutdoorWe found this design on http://www.styleshout.com/ and decided to add it to our growing directory of free skins. It's name is Outdoor and in my opinion it feels very clean. If kind of feels like summer actually. To see it in action, check out this website which is using it - http://demo1.iministries.org.
So what are you waiting for? We know that you mildly interested or you wouldn't even be on our website checking us out. At this very second, our system is waiting for you. Sign up today for your free 15 day trial!
 AnchoredBeing spatially aware is important. Just like a cluttered house can make you feel nervous on the inside, a cluttered website does the exact same thing. Cramming your website with as much content as possible isn't the best thing in the world. It leaves your users frustrated. You might "appear" bigger, but if no one wants to use your website, who really cares?
This skin is simple. We created it so that you don't ever have to load a header if you don't want to, or if you don't have someone on your team that can help in this area. Don't worry though, if you do...this is still a great skin to use!
This skin also has a wider viewport (the area were all of the text and images sit) which allows you to have more content on the screen before having to scroll down the page. Another benefit to having a wider skin is that it allows you to have one or two more top level menu items. People don't like digging for stuff, so the more that you can put your big ticket items in your menu, the better.
Another nice point about this skin is that it uses our new Quick Menu feature that we developed for Harvest Bible Chapel Oakville's skin. While their Quick Menu is interactive (a button that is in the upper right hand corner of their screen pulls down their Quick Menu), this one stays statically positioned in the footer
 Harvest Bible Chapel - Milwaukee SouthI was working with Jen Hawkins of Harvest Bible Fellowship yesterday, and we were looking at some of our existing customers websites together. We came across Harvest Bible Chapel Milwaukee, and I must admit that when I saw it, I felt a little bit of pride.
Harvest Milwaukee has been with us for two years, and they recently decided to put some extra effort into their website. They selected one of our free skins and had their worship pastor create a header for them. They also have spent a significant amount of time filling in the gaps by using highlights on various pages as well as trying to add as many thumbnails to their articles that they have posted. Their site has been transformed in a great way.
I wrote their Senior Pastor to encourage him in what I saw, and he had this to say:
"I love your product and would recommend it to anyone. It is disappointing to see some using the product, but not to its fullest potential. We still have a long way to go with blogging and groups...but we're getting there."

I can not stress to you enough how simple our system is to use, you just have to spend a little, and I stress "little," time learning how the pieces work. We have a video tutorials available like this one on how to use our blog feature and many written help files which give you step-by-step instructions.
Like anything, you get out what you put in. I am very excited for Harvest Milwaukee and for their efforts.
 Deer Creek Christian Church
Deer Creek Christian Church has been
one of our customers since iMinistries began! Recently, the bug hit them to freshen up their website, so they decided to use one of our free skins. Jacki Rutledge, wife of youth pastor Josh Rutledge and budding web designer, decided to tackle the project herself by modifying their home page. By doing so, she was able to save Deer Creek a lot of money, all while creating the look that her church wanted.
"iMinistries provided amazing support throughout the redesign of our site. Through the online tutorials and efficient help ticket system, we were able to accomplish a polished professional look. iMinistires strives to provide user-friendly tools that have enabled us to improve and maintain our site with ease. Their services have been invaluable to us in making our website relevant."

 Formal Splotch This skin gives you the ability to make the homepage as different as you like, because of its wide-open, "blank canvas" feel. It is shown here with news items on the homepage, but the options for customization are vast. Instead of news, you could place graphics in any way that you feel would make the most impact. You could post informative articles including directions to your church, a direct link to your podcast, how to get involved in a specific ministry or ministries, and more.
 GrungeThis skin is one of our more popular skins and comes in two different colors. Grunge Blue (shown below) was created in November of 2008 because of the popularity of the original, Grunge Brown.
 CoffeeIf you don't have anyone in your church that has a design eye or is able to create custom banners or ads for you, this skin might be for you. It was created with the intent of not ever needing a banner. The design features at the top serve as your banner.
 Sky This skin comes in a few different colors and was one of the more popular skins chosen in 2007. There are free Flash banners that you can plug into the website, an example of which can be seen below. The banners for this skin, and a few others, can be found on our support website.

This skin is also available in a few different colors. Free Flash banners are available on this website and easily plug in to your website.
