Need logo help

I need to design a logo for my site and i am a newbie in photoshop. If anyone knows some cool stuff that can help me please tell me. My name will be 2dd technology and I have no ideas.

what kind of site will it be?

my company site. We create little gadgets that masure temperature and stuff.

do you have url presently? If so post it.

no, it will be 2ddtech.com

this will be the company logo

if you can post a image of what you work with this might help.

  • a idea could be to focus on the 2dd which could make for a good symbol , where you could have tech.com incoporated into it.

Well you start with an idea, then you think how to realize it. :slight_smile:
Logos are usualy made in vector graphic (like freehand, AI, Core Draw) so you can use them on printed materials also. If you are planning only to use your logo on web you can make it in photoshop.
I suggest you to check some of these sites, they are rather simple but could help you at the beginning:

Don’t make your logo in Photoshop. Make your logo in Illustrator (or Freehand) and just place it in photoshop when needed. A photoshop logo will also need to be redone for business cards and such, and you’ll be sad about it. Especially when you do tons of effects that you can’t copy in a vector program. So, vector it - cause it’s a logo :smiley:

But, like Martina said, start with a concept - or at least a company name. Figure out what you want to do with that logo and move forward. I’ve written an article on the subject, you can find it at:

There’s also some images of a few of the logos I’ve done.
