The new East. Armenian Diocese website, just peachy

I consider myself a somewhat sane and tasteful person. I am not proclaiming that I am better than anyone, in anything. That said the new website of the Eastern Armenian Diocese of America produces such disgust and biter taste in my mouth, that I could not hold back. Hence I contacted the two parties responsible for this schijten.

The website in question is armenianchurch-ed.net and below is what I wrote to them.

Hello,
i don’t even know if this contact works, since the subject selection does not a indicate a subject.

I am contacting you in regards to the website that the diocese has managed to make.
I know that the diocese is not the one who made the website, nevertheless the blame is shared equally between the maker (bluefountainmedia.com) and the client.

I do not know what had pushed the diocese to change the old website nor do I know what/who had persuaded to use bluefountainmedia.com’s services.
Nevertheless as a user and a member of the Eastern Diocese I would like to share my opinion.

In websites user opinion is more important than the client’s or maker’s. Because ultimately it is the user who uses the website. not the maker. Unfortunately the new website design, color layout typography information architecture, is not just unwelcoming, its tasteless, disgusting, sickening and totally unspiritual.

I am not suggesting that I know what it should be, i do not have this right. However I am confident is my taste and there is nothing tasteful in this website.

Cheers

I am just sharing my opinion as a user and as a servent of the Armenian Easters Diocese.
Firstly I am not a genius designer nor a virtuoso programmer. That said, a blind men is lucky, because he would not have to see such a disgusting website. Its just unpleasant, for one it does not feel spiritual, nor does it feel welcoming. It produces a feeling of sickness and tastelessness. The word tasteless defines this website.

I would just like to congratulate you on a job well done, you guys are A ok in my book of idiotic designers and second rate programmers.

Cheers Vache.

PS maybe you should have looked at the western diocese site first

Please tell me I am wrong, tell me that this website is beautiful and that I am crazy.

    Dear Vache, I did not look the web site you are refering to intentionally. The attitude and position you are taking is not proper for meaningful discussion, especially with colleague.
    Don’t you want to make the web site better? Then you consider them professionals and should approach on that level. If you don’t look for any improvement, then why spend your time? If you make point as an user only, then just say I don’t like it, why you need to get into details and explanations? Best regards, pnduk
