pretty shítty thing to say to a kid aidan. Everybody was making site with black backgrounds and comic sans when starting off in the late ninties, it's incredibly hypocritical of you to be slating someone.

Here, here. How about some encouragement and help Aidan?

Nev, you're young and so have plenty of time to develop skills and artistic ability. This is one of your first attempts, of course there's plenty of scope for improvement. Stick with it!

Frankly, it doesn't matter. IMO you seem to lack a sense of design, and artistic ability. He could well have used a crayon and gotten the same results. You, however, are highly unlikely to no matter what you use.

I totally agree...I'm not artistic...

The fact that he is 14 doesn't take anything away from the arrogance of your post Aidan. Keep up the good work Walsh.

I think that's enough flaming,eh?

Nevf: (I didn't see this answered)
You're better off using a vector format than bitmap as it resizes considerably better. What you make is pretty much what you get a very small size and a very large size.
Read: http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/aboutgraphics/a/bitmapvector.htm & google.


Make a copy of your works so far (Bitmaps) and manipulate them in photoshop - change size, change to black and white, etc. See how they fare? The logo should be usable and consistent across more than one medium. You can of course use a bitmap-based image, it's just that vector scales so much better. Colour can be an issue across both formats: this is just something you'll have to learn from practice and experimentation (Again, keep in mind that the logo may often be printed in black and white/greyscale and that many people are colour-blind , so dependancy on colour should be avoided, or lessened where possible).

I agree, it just gives me more time to learn...
