Terms and Conditions

How does the Membership work?

We provide two options for purchasing our projects. One is A La Carte: pay as you go. The other is our Membership Plans. The first plan is Yearly Unlimited. $299/yr. You have access to our entire library with no limit and no contract. Second, is our Monthly Limited. $29/mo. with no contract. You receive 10 download credits. (each cart item equals 1 download) Credits rollover. Cancel anytime. Each membership has access to our entire library, but Monthly has a credit limit. Anything on the site is free except for our Retitle Service, but you can receive 50% off. “But you said unlimited?” Yes, but this an additional cost is to cover the contract labor for editing the files on our end. Learn more about the Retitle option below. Our goal for the Membership is to bring an affordable and predictable option to as many churches as possible.

When I Download A Series, What’s Included?

Each series includes the following graphics(1920×1080 300 DPI) in JPEG and PNG formats: Sermon series graphic, blank fullscreen and lower third graphics for teaching media, names, etc. as well as social media graphics(sizes vary).

Videos are included in MP4 format. 1920 x 1080. At least one bumper and one countdown is included. Music and sound effects are also embedded.

Photoshop Files and After Effects files are included. Adobe CC 2012 or later required.

A PDF with links to the fonts used. All fonts are free to download, but please adhere to each font’s usage agreement. This can typically be found on the font’s webpage

A detailed video tutorial walking you through each step of the editing process.

What is the Retitle Service?

If you find a series you like, but lack the resources, programs, or expertise to make edits to the series title and video text, we can help. The first step would be to email us and let us know you’re looking for a custom series retitle. You will receive a custom invoice based on these prices. For non-members, the Retitle Service cost is $349/series. For Members, $175/series. Once the payment is received, we will send you a form where you can submit the changes you need. Any text you see in the graphics and video can be customized. Once we receive your completed form, allow 3-5 days for us to complete the retitle. You will receive a download link to the customized graphics, videos, and project files. The Retitle Service only includes updating the text layers. It does not include changing colors, timing, or any other additional edits. We also include 1 full screen name slide and 1 lower third name slate. Additional customized files would be additional costs. Send us an email at info@pixelpreacher.net to get started!

What are the software requirements for these packages?

In order to open the project files and make edits, you will need Adobe Photoshop CC 2012 or above. If you don’t have those, contact us and let’s see if we can help.

What is a Lower Third?

This is an image that is used on the lower third of the screen. Hence the name. Do you project a camera feed of your pastor onto a screen? Do you show his name or teaching slides? If you have the right equipment, you can overlay a Lower Third onto the image to display teaching notes or name slates. There are blank Lower Thirds for you to import into Photoshop or other design programs and add your information. See this video on our tutorials page for more information.

How do I search for a video?

Searching is easy. We suggest you search by topic. So if your church is doing a marriage series, you may want to use words like: “Love, Marriage, Relationships, Husband, Wife”. While all of our projects have lots of tags, keep it simple and we are sure you will find what you are looking for. You can also click on our topics located at the bottom of each page.

Downloads

When will I receive my purchased package?

Upon purchase, you will receive an email within minutes that will contain a download link. Click that and the the download will begin automatically. You can also find a link under your account. The package will be contained in a ZIP file. Double-click that file to open and you’re all set! Maybe one day we can deliver it via drone…wouldn’t that be cool.

Can I distribute my purchased package to other churches?

Nope. If you know of another church that is in need of similar series packages, then please send them to our site. The Customer Agreement lays out all of the nitty gritty details associated with your purchase. Please follow them.

Can I share the files within our Church?

Yes! If you download a series package for your main services, but the High School ministry wants to do the series at the same time, then you can all share the same package.

Can we broadcast on television using your work?

Yes and No. The music that is included with each series is not licensed for broadcast television. So using our packages with the included music is strictly prohibited. However, if you change all audio associated with the project to a track that you have the proper broadcast license for, then you are welcome to broadcast using our work, but accept full responsibility for any licensing issue you may encounter.

There was a problem with my download, what do I do?

Uh oh. That’s not good. Throw your computer in the trash, maybe? No worries, contact us right away and we will help you get it sorted out. Please allow 6-10 hours for a response. We might be sleeping.

Packages

Where do I download fonts?

A Help File PDF will be included with the project. Open that PDF and there will be buttons that will direct you to where you can download the needed fonts. You will see 6 buttons, but not all of those will be active. Most projects will only need 2-4 fonts. If the project contains more than 6 fonts, there will be a separate PDF with more links. Contact us right away if you still seem to be missing a font.

How do I install font?

We have a video tutorial explaining this. Check it out here.

I need help with my purchased package, who do I talk to about this?

Contact us right away, we will do our best to answer your question. If it’s a question only the designer can answer, we will put you in direct contact with the them so you can resolve it together and cut out the middle man. You can also chat with us on our Chat Feature located in the bottom right of this screen. We are available most business hours EST.

Will the watermark go away on purchased videos?

Click your heels 3 times and spin around and they magically go away. Yes. All of your purchased files won’t contain any watermarks.

Do you offer a tutorial on how to edit the packages?

All projects contain a custom step-by-step video tutorial. This will be indicated on the product page.

Can I post my purchased package on our website?

Sorry, no. The Customer Agreement does not allow redistribution of our series packages.

Can I use your projects for commercial projects?

Sorry, no. The Customer Agreement does not allow our projects to be used for commercial needs. Our templates are here to serve churches.

Can we use these files as promotion material?

Yes! You are welcome to post the flattened files on social media or create any print media such as mailers, invites, and billboards. Any form of television or radio Broadcast is not allowed.

But I need another file format, what do I do?

Contact us and let us know what you need, we will do our best to help you, although we can’t guarantee we can meet your needs, but we will give it our best shot.

How often do you post new content?

Our goal is to release a new series every month! We want to make sure that we provide the best sermon graphics for the church. As you can imagine, these take quite a bit of time to create. 😀

We are a nimble team, but we’re constantly looking for other great designers to help contribute. If you’re interested, head over to our contact page and drop us a note!

My project contains “Pre-Rendered” files. What does that mean?

Some projects may have been created with different programs such as Cinema 4D, etc. Certain elements may have been exported from those programs and imported into After Effects. Why? Because there are certain programs that can create stunning looks that After Effects isn’t capable of. Another reason would be that a third-party plugin such as Trapcode Particular was used to create a certain effect. We don’t expect you to have these plugins so we render out the effect so that it will play even if you don’t have the plugin. Editing capabilities will be limited with these files.

It says I am missing a plugin, what does that mean?

If the product page indicated that third-party plugins were required, you will need them. However, the majority of our projects do not require plugins. If you bought a project that doesn’t require plugins but are still getting an error, just ignore it, the plugin is still active in case it’s needed by those who own that plugin, but the the pre-rendered file is included as well. So just hit ok and continue. Still have an issue, contact us and let us know.

Payment

What types of payments do you accept?

Currently, we are accepting payments through Stripe. Through Stripe you can use any type of credit card or bank account. You may also send us gift baskets.

I’m not happy with my purchase, can I request a refund?

We doubt you will be, but we want to be sure you are completely happy. Before you request a refund, lets see if we can solve the problem first. Refunds will not be given based on aesthetics. The look, length, style, etc. is clearly portrayed on the product page.

How do I apply a Promo Code?

You can apply a promo code once you view your cart and begin processing your purchase.
