HOW TO* make great looking logos (short tutorial)

[jondoe123]

here is a little trick i thought i would share. no huge secret, but makes life A LOT easier when trying to make complicated logos. *HEADACHE* anyways...

1. find a photo editor (photoshop, or a free one online... even paint will
work)
2. find the logo you want to make, download it to your pc.
3. on your pc using an editor, erase everything but the bottom most
layer(s) reducing the logo to simple shapes (this makes is super easy to
see the basic shapes). SEE FIG. 1
4. make it in the game ^
5. erase all the little insignificant shapes, leaving only larger shapes which
help you keep proportions. SEE FIG. 2
6. make it in the game ^
7. add in all the little shapes, and any necessary stroke (or outline).
*keep in mind: think about your stroke (outline) ahead of time. many times you can save a lot of time using it to cheat a bit.
