Hi Stemians!
I have been noticing that there are so many awesome people here who has been creating their awesome logos / footer for a richer content environment (besides posting their awesome photos).
Today I would like to create my own "Support my Project" logo; my first milestone to achieve by the end of the year for my parents.
If you want to know part of it, please feel free to read one of my earliest posts:
ps: ever since I discovered the < center > tag, I have been really excited to align my images!
Ahem. So I have started my own journey looking for something free to work on so that I can actually be able to give everyone here some idea how to do so.
Before I continue, I would like to let you know besides an online free program, I actually used 2 free applications as well. Will share with you soon!
So through googl-ing I managed to find this really awesome site that relatively gives you free vectors to work on. You can even make your text in a circle form with ease!
Here is where I found it.
click on the image to go to the site
they have all these support languages so you do not have to worry
There you can actually pick a lot of things and it is relatively simple if you are used to a basic image editor
You really do not need to worry much as you can just pick a category by the side and search for anything that says "free logo"
Since started the pig thing at #steemgigs, I might as well pick one instead
You can even pick your own desired available fonts to make your logo a different feel!
 like a perfectionist like me, then you can screen capture it and remove the grid lines through print screen
The laptop I am currently working on, does not have Photoshop Elements, so I used available installed free programs like GIMP
These steps requires a lot of patience to do so.
Because I wanted my image to be transparent I have decided to make the lines and the white spot disappear.
ps: I am using an older GIMP version
After opening the file, I have decided to change the layers so that it is white background.
Tip: You can use the Zoom tool (press Z or the magnifying glass) to zoom in your image for a better view, as I did
Press OK when you are done.
Next, you will need to make a transparent background so that it will look nice in any other HTML backgrounds you want to use later. Otherwise you can skip this step if you want to have white background.
Now to save your work out.
I relatively prefers PNG files as it is less pixelated than a JPG file, and transparent files will need to use PNG. You can use GIF too but that is better for animation.
In GIMP, you actually cannot just save a file like that, you will have to EXPORT your completed image pick PNG or JPG (solid background) format.
Select your type
Name your file
Choose Export
You can leave the default settings as it is.
Voila!
Here it is! Your very own logo made!
