Artist's Comments

Simple tutorial, I made it for [link] ~ my first submitted tutorial.

OMITTED STEP: TO FIX THE LOW QUALITY RESULT
As for some of the issues brought up: I realize the distortion results in a low quality logotype, I did not include the final step because of size constraints...but to fix it is simple: work at a much larger scale, when you finish up simply scale it down and it will get rid of the jaggies and make everything sharp again.

edit:

Wow I woke up this morning with my inbox filled, I clicked the piece and realized it got DD'ed - my very first ever!!!

Also, I made this for some friends @ silkroadforums.com, I didn't realize it would get so much attention, and i'm sorry for the jokes near the end.

=bluem00n thinks that Logotype - SRForums by ~Dom- is "a very clean, simple, and helpful even for those who know nothing of logo types. It's very coherent and places everything chronologically and even highlights the important parts for you! To me, this is really the ultimate tutorial, something that teaches you something you didn't know before. It does the job wonderfully." (Suggested by `bluem00n and Featured by `bleedsopretty)

very nice, the only thing wrong with distorting the text to do a perspective look like that, is the text becoming slightly pixilated before it's been rasterized (if that's what you're using at the time) at the part of the text that is supposed to look closer to you (in this image, the S, R and part of the F). Other than that, it's an awesome tutorial. just a suggestion, but try to work with shape layers as much as possible, to lessen the chances of getting pixels and gaining the freedom to scale the image

Very nice, ... what program did you use to make this typograhic work?
Mabe it would have been better if you made it with vectors ... 'cause you lost quite a bit of quality when distorting your logo.

hm... Well, I consider that kind of work as web logo work. It is, right?

Anyway, I agree, vectors would have worked better but the bottom line is that you have come up with a nice methodology to build a logo and you shared it coherently and in a nice fresh way. :)

Congrats on the DD.
