No, I will not make your ugly logo bigger.

It’s your friendly, neighborhood, tiny logo loving designer here.

This may be hard for some clients to accept, but, most designers (you hired us for a reason) are experts at what they do. We all approach design with our own unique brand of fervor, but for the most part, those of us who are experienced professionals know what we are doing.

That being said, due to the recent barrage of work I have been enduring recently, (not complaining) I felt it was time to repost a video that epitomizes almost all of my more difficult clients. Please watch this video, you might recognize some of these folks in the mirror.

Get your free Logo Design Love chapter

Posted by David Airey at 5:07 am

yay!

I showed you my book’s table of contents, and asked what chapter you wanted for free. Many of you said, “All of them,” but alas, I doubt my publisher would approve, so you’ll have to settle for the most popular chapter vote—seven: From pencil to PDF.

From pencil to PDF: sub-headings

Mind-mapping
The fundamental necessity of the sketchpad
The Tenth Commandment
Pinning the map
Internationally recognized
No set time
Dress for success
Black and white before color
Where Photoshop comes into play
The pen is mightier than the mouse

All you need to do is click on the link or the image below to get the chapter. No strings. The PDF download is 1MB in size.

Logo Design Love chapter seven: From pencil to PDF

If you like what you see, and if Twitter’s your thing, you can help me out with a quick tweet:

(The bit.ly link directs back here.)

Or earn mad props from your designer peers by sending them the PDF (or a link to this page).

And of course, please tell me what you think of the content. I may write another book one day—your constructive feedback helps immensely.

As a Christmas gift, I’m giving away 5 free copies of the book to fans of the Logo Design Love Facebook page. One winner will be drawn each day next week, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Saturday or Sunday, depending on how much I’ve eaten for Christmas dinner.
