Logos

This art was made for online and print use with large versions for a vehicle. It was tricky because the client wanted to use his own image - the saw - that was small and low resolution and had to be converted to clean lines for large sizes. Thank you Adobe Illustrator

This logo was not difficult to do.  The client was very clear about what he wanted even down to the fonts he wanted to use. He wanted it for email, and all digital use, t-shirts, business card and at some stage - vehicle.

COSTS:

COSTS for logo design reflect the amount of time spent coming up with a good idea and creating it using computer technnology.

The ideal client is one who has a good idea what they want so that the work can be done faster.

A common problem is that a client wants to use something they have found on the internet. That's OK for digital use - eg email or Facebook, but NOT OK for stationery, business cards, t-shirts, and vehicles. Pixel- based Internet images may look great on your screen but have to be digitally converted to scalable lines (vector) in a drawing program if they are to be printed or used at large sizes.
