  • Lee Munroe Reply

    Incredible list! Thanks for sharing, am looking forward to my next logo design now :)

  • Luke Field Reply

    Thank you SO much for this article Jacob! I went through a 1.5yr college design course and I’ve learnt more from your website in a month about logo creation than what I have in class! And I’m telling you now; that course I did wasn’t cheap!

    Anyway. Out of curiosity: if you were to design a logo and it was to be an illustration of a real life object, would you first try to draw the object and then convert that to the logo or would you trace an image of the object in Illustrator? I’m doing a similar project and I’m concerned that I could be infringing a copy-righted image. I can do thumbnails, but I’m not artist!

  • Jacob Cass Reply

    Thank you all, glad to be of service, I’ve always wanted a page like this rather than having to scavenge around in my bookmarks.

    Marc,
    I will add Core Identity, thank you.

    Luke,
    Most probably sketch first unless you are certain that the object is what is best for the project, but usually this is not the case.

  • Per Reply

  • nadia Reply

    Hi,
    Thank you for this share, I like it, and I agree about logo sites they are expanding so much, the problem is as a designer, I can’t find a free logo eps and ai format, I wonder how is possible you did not list the biggest database of logo in the web http://www.logopub.com and there you can get the EPS or AI format + the snapshot.
    Hope you can add it to the list to help the maximum possible of designers.
    Best regards
    Nadia
