Entertainment???

Are you concerned with the trend that is becoming evident in too many churches where once they get a data projector messages become less edifying and more distracting and entertaining?

So are we, and so one important goal we had when designing ShowNak is that it would be very easy to use as a tool for edifying without distraction.

To do this we have taken a stand and ...

	not included animation as this is a severely overused and abused feature that is great for entertaining and but often distracts from the message.
	excluded text superimposed on images.
	limited the number on text colors that can by displayed at once.
	made including bible text in messages very easy.

If it is a major concern to you we have one more suggestion and recommend that the computer used to drive the data projector not have any other presentation software on it so that it is not a temptation - unfortunately we have seen that animation and color appeals to the eye and distracts from message. This is only our recommendation though and the final decision is not ours to make. If you want a method to assist in having this standard and keeping it please email us at shownak@nakware.com to discuss an option that may be appropriate for you.

Alternatively PowerPoint can export PowerPoint presentations to a series of slides that ShowNak can display, removing animation and allowing quick displaying of Bible passages referred to then you can go back to the current slide with one button.

So if this is a concern and you already have a data projector or are looking at getting one we urge you to download and try ShowNak out for yourself - it is a free trial and it is the only way to see how much thought was put into the design of ShowNak to make it the most suitable church display tool available.
