Gimp Tutorial

[dmbrown81]

Can someone post some instructions or link me to where I can create my logos using Gimp? 90% of the logos I make turn out with white specs all around them and it looks tacky? I usually use the fuzzy select tool and delete the white background but even then it still looks bootleg.

Thanks

Logo's should be vector, so Inkscape. GIMP is for photo editing and manipulation. Do not use GIMP to design logos.

I'm a pretty new graphic designer too, and started out using GIMP, and my ability to create about doubles once I switched to Inkscape primarily.

GIMP is very powerful and does a ton of other stuff in addition to drawing (photo editing, basic animation, etc) .

I use a XP-Pen Star G640 Graphic Tablet with it , It's a great tablet. For slider adjustments, spot, brush edits it's pretty good.

Yeah, you need to save it with transparency (.png). Photoshop and Paintshop are great. A free online software to use is photopea
