Thread: Logo Design Tips

The importance of a professional logo design

Your logo is one of the first things your visitors will see when they visit your website, so an attractive logo design is essential for presenting the image of a professional site.

If your visitors arrive and see a poorly designed logo on your site, they'll form a less than professional image of your organization. This will cost you business.

You have three basic options for your logo design projects:

• Use a free online logo design application. There are several websites that have logo design software available online for your free use. The downside to these free services is typically the logo will be "branded" with a "Created By" credit on the logo itself. Needless to say, these logos do not give your site a very professional image.

• Purchase a professional quality logo design software package. These are software applications that run on your PC and allow you to design and create stunning, professional quality logos. But expect to pay a premium for the better logo design software packages and experience a moderate learning curve. It will also help if you have at least some artistic talent.

• The logo design option that most people use is simply contracting out their logo design business to a graphic artist who specializes in logos and web graphics. While this is the most expensive option for getting a logo for your site, it also allows you to get the highest quality, most professional logo.

For those of you out there that do design your own logos, what program(s) do you use?

I really enjoy using fireworks. specially in logo.vector image.

Of course, there's always drawing your own, scanning it in, and touching it up with Photoshop -- but that does indeed require some design skills.

Adobe ( the best solution any resl estate design services). I use that.

Use Photoshop! Photoshop 7.0 is enough for me, Find a great font! Use some nice free brushes for your purpose and change the blending options to get nice shadow effects!

Now you got a great easy logo!
