A logo must be describable<br/> 2. A logo must be memorable<br/> 3. A logo must be effective without color<br/> 4. A logo must be scalable i.e. effective when just an inch in size<br/><br/><a href="http://www.davidairey.com/10-steps-to-great-logo-designs/">Doodle, Draw, and Sketch! </a><br/> Logos are created by first sketching out ideas on paper. You will have many versions, and you will probably change your logo a lot from the first to last sketch!<br/><img src="http://www.davidairey.com/images/paper/pencil.jpg" width='100"'/></p>http://gra-fix.karenlemmer.com/post/52359957http://gra-fix.karenlemmer.com/post/52359957Mon, 29 Sep 2008 21:00:00 -0400<iframe width="400" height="300" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/nfnJPo-dPP4?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Logos are most effective when combining a memorable graphic with text (usually the company name).
