Good logo designing software?



Yeah, I know this, but that doesn't stop many people from doing so (just look at some of the "portfolios" here).

Course omission of such fact when mentioning may imply to people who read you mentioning istock photo that they could use those for logos. (course its their responsibility to read the license agreement on the other hand).

A website/lander logo is a far cry from a company trademark as well.

A website logo can have just as much impact if it's an online business. Could equally be as bad if a designer provided said logo to a company as part of an identity creation package, and they end up making business cards and letterheads with it, even though its strictly an online venture. And Getty smacks down very hard on even "simply website" companies.
 
ok..i got another question.. is a simple logo more appealing or a header for a page.
for instance lets say we are using some dietician website... should one use just a logo with a white bg., or a entire header to cover the whole horizontal breadth of the pg.

which is more appealing to a viewer?

Depends on the overall design, as either results could royally suck, or they could be a hit. (and some logos just simply don't go well on plain white depending on how they were designed).
 
i was thinking of using illustrator. would the pics created be better than PS? as in would it be a hit

Wouldn't be any "better or worse" than photoshop. They're two tools that concentrate on particular aspects. Photoshop has some vector capabilities but Illustrator is the primary tool of the suite for vector designs, where as Photoshop is far more apt for raster work.

So if you plan on doing a lot of design that needs to be scalable, then Illustrator would be the better route as its far more appropriate for vector work. But if you're doing primarily webdesign or photo retouching and so forth, photoshop may be more suitable (between the two).
 
I spent good amount of time on AAA Logo Maker and that was years back. I am sure no one mentioned it, now I get it done in PhotoShop.
 
Illustrator, by far. If you're serious about it at least.

I make all my designs on Illustrator. I use Photoshop to dress it up after wards.

ok. i got a question. i had seen a picture of a ball that has a shadow below it and inside that shadow another smaller, darker one and inside that 2nd shadow, a third smaller one. basically the 3 shadows make it look like the ball is in a bouncing motion(when the ball is closest to the ground the shadow is darkest whereas when it moves up, the shadow fades. i tried google but couldnt find any tutorials for it. ill try to search for the picture...maybe you guys will get a better idea of what im talking abt.)
Basically this is what i am trying to design. Any ideas how to go abt it?
