anyone good at making logo's?

[G G]

I have started a little side business repairing computers. I have a friend who has a screen printing business and she is willing to make me some t-shirts in trade for some work I did for her. I need a logo in .gif or .eps format, and don't know jack about making logos. I have looked on the internet at the free creators and they all suck. Not asking for something outrageous and willing to send some cigars if you like. let me know and we can work something out.

Meant to also add that the size should be big enough or either high res enough that it doesn't have to be stretched too much to make a logo on a t-shirt. Actually the logo will go on the left chest so it doesn't have to humongous, but once again I am challenged in this area, so what do I know.

I might be able to help but I am no expert by any means. I don't know how professional it would be. I have some friends who are graphic design majors but they would more than likely charge you a fee rather than doing it for cigars.

Any ideas of what you would like to see Greg? Company name? Photo of a computer? etc,etc...

If I had my Graphic Design program on my computer I would deffinately help ya out. But, hurricane Katrina took those from me and dont have the money to buy them back.
But if you need a graphic designer's opinion, advice, etc... I'll be glad to help out.

I got a degree in graphic design, its almost sad I don't use it much.

Greg, what do you invision it looking like, what kind of aspects to it, colors, etc. I'll try to throw something together when I have time. Also the name might help

Well I know I am picky and that prolly aint gonna get me far when I am begging. I would like some kinda pic of a puter in there, or if not then something techy looking that would transfer on a shirt well. The name is; GG's Computers and the catch phrase is: If I don't fix it, you don't pay

Prolly go broke trying to hold up my end of that bargain but what the heck huh?

[kelmac07]

Sounds like an idea for a contest.

[G G]

Shoulda made this a contest.

[G G]

I was kinda scared that if I made it a contest someone would think I was a schmuck.

[G G]

And the shirt will probably be grey.

[G G]

And oh yeah, I suck. I spent two hours on google images and couldn't even find an image that I liked. Well actually that's not true, they were just in jpg and that won't work.

nobody around here would think that greg. u should know that.

[G G]

Well then maybe I will make it into a contest then.

[G G]

If no one posts that I am a schmuck for doing it by tomorrow then I will make it a contest and the winner gets a ten pack from my humi. That sound OK?

Plus the next time I get stuck at a job, I am calling Shilala for tech support.

And that's only cause I have worn out my freebies with Dunng.

Greg, what would help DRAMATICALLY is if you'd just do a hand sketch of something you can see in your mind's eye.
Once someone sees that, they can throw some ideas out.
Realize it takes a lot of time to make logos, beggars can't be choosers, and simple is always best.

I know it bro, hence the schmuck comment. Simple is the way I imagined it. I'll try to post something similar and see if that helps.

Throw a couple big G's together and rock on. Like one G hanging on the other.
