For The Logo and Graphics Challenged- Logo Series


I am good at a lot of things- i am even GREAT at a handful of stuff ( I kick ass in Rock Band!) and have several niche blogs where I have successfully branded myself as an expert in some obscure and not-so obscure fields. One thing I would never have the cajones to do it to pass myself off as any kind of expert in graphics or logo design.

I am for ANYTHING that will take mystery and pain out of designing a business logo or graphic. I just wrote a post about an image editor Picnik that really is designed for people like me.
I will often see post in blog about designing you own logo and been a bit hopeful.. only to read it and then feel a cloud enter my brain when they start to use terms like “layers” and “gradient tools”.. and I go back to my logo free life. So I was dubious when I stopped by and checked out Anita Campbell’s posts on Small Business Trends starting with Help, My Logo is So 1999!

The article series wasn’t what I thought- it is not another DIY logo tutorial . Anita describes the process she goes through in creating a new logo using the HP service Logoworks who claim to design a high quality design starting at 99.00. A great price and an option worth giving serious consideration. ( Note- yes I KNOW I am logo free- it has been in the works for months now and been a difficult process - read my brother-in-law the graphics designer is now doing it…..)

Anita takes some of the mystery out of creating a business logo and her logo series is a must read if you are considering getting a professionally designed logo for your site or blog. There article is well written and has unusualy good insight into the process. The post comments also contain good info so take a peek.

            1. Thanks, Lisa, for pointing this out.

              Getting a logo design can be a painful process. I know people who start and never finish because it is so difficult. Heck, I did that once. I just didn’t know what to do and it was easier to do nothing. :)

              What are your other blogs? Would love to see them — maybe I’ve been on them and didn’t make the connection back to you here.

            2. Oh- In have started out MANY times and dropped it.. every year I vow to take a course in PhotoShop. I have been “meaning” to learn it since 1998 .

              I could tell you what my other blogs are- but I would have to kill you :-)
              I will tell you off site sometime- not that exciting honest! - I just keep seperate for privacy reasons. Well meaning SEO friends have linked other blogs with my name in the past and caused me a lot of headaches. I am stunned at the personal info people give out over Internet. I have had one real life stalker that was terrifying and an Internet stalker that was also pretty hairy.
