This Ain’t No Clover Site

Posted by John Saddington on Aug 15, 2009

Perhaps one of the most retro Church flash sites I’ve seen in a long, long time.

We’ve come  along way baby. I think Clover Sites should offer one of these “looks” in their collection!

I’m not hating, I’m appreciating! Evangel Cathedral, you guys are awesome!

    That is amazing! It's not just retro flash from an amateur. It's clearly high end retro flash. Their landing page, with the guitar riff… that's amazing stuff right there. I wonder if anyone from the church thinks it may be time for an update?

    The intro reminded me of many movies I have seen on Mystery Science Theater.

    Hahaha Ive been loving that site for about 4 months now, ever since someone else on staff pointed it out to me. The guitar riff is EPIC and the different tunes that play when you click on the links in the site are ridiculous…haha…

      Epic is the word! If the point of the website is to get me in their building, it's working. Next time I am in Maryland I am there! In the mean time I will visit the site daily for daily manna.

      I totally picture Jesus Himself shredding that riff every time I hear it.

    Just because you can. doesn't mean you should.

    I guess it is good technical animation though..

    I think their website is more about them rather then Jesus.

    *Maxwell Smart voice* They missed it by, that, much.

    I did a site similar to that for a company my first year in college. I regret spending the time it took, and that was when in your face animation was cool.

    You might want to put a warning up for epileptics telling them not to watch the video.

    I wonder if they're seeing a spike in traffic since you posted it. Holy Cow that is crazy.

    My eyes are bleeding.

    I'm sure Activision are all over that guitar riff for Guitar Hero 6.

    Feels like I just got punched in the face by The Don (Mears) himself. At least I'll remember the experience long after I leave the site…
