Hello all,

Just came across this site and boy am I glad I did. I've been trying to find help in designing logos and titles for my web sites. I don't have the sites running yet, I'm still working on the sites but I would like to be able to design something interesting as opposed to just typing out boring letters. I have adobe photoshop and flash. Are there any programs I should be looking for or any how to books? The adobe photoshop book doesn't give any tips on this subject. Your help is much appreciated

if you've decided to start making logos you'll want to start in a vector-based program - i.e. Adobe Illustrator. Text looks cleaner, even if you import it to photoshop. My advice for illlustrator (being an instructor and freelance designer) is to practice as much as you can with the Bezier Pen Tool. This will become your best friend if you can master it. Next step, using the options of Pathfinder, your 2nd best friend. The reason you'll want to make a logo in Illustrator is for versatility - say you make the client a logo for a business card, and a month later they need it 3 feet wide for a sign - how will the resolution translate? if it's in a vector based program, it's infinte. if it's bitmap, like photoshop, you're going to get jaggies (pixelization) - big time. If you'd like to know more - e-mail me - kerri@kgilpin.com
