erad: is this vector or bitmap

lol, I dnt study graphics in school, so ϊƒ Ɣøµ ask me "ɪ̣̝̇§ this vector or bitmap?", I'll be lyk "dude speak english", lol,, anyway sha, I designed it ωϊ† coreldraw frm D̶̲̥̅̊ scratch, I created evrytin Ɣøµ see thre, afta ª♏ done, I then export it in jpeg bitmap, so Ɣøµ tell me ϊƒ its vector or bitmap,, actually D̶̲̥̅̊ word ª♏ not familiar ωϊ† ɪ̣̝̇§ "vector"

Unlike JPEGs, GIFs, and BMP images, vector graphics are not made up of a grid of pixels. Instead, vector graphics are comprised of paths, which are defined by a start and end point, along with other points, curves, and angles along the way. A path can be a line, a square, a triangle, or a curvy shape. These paths can be used to create simple drawings or complex diagrams. Paths are even used to define the characters of specific typefaces.

Because vector-based images are not made up of a specific number of dots, they can be scaled to a larger size and not lose any image quality. If you blow up a raster graphic, it will look blocky, or "pixelated." When you blow up a vector graphic, the edges of each object within the graphic stay smooth and clean. This makes vector graphics ideal for logos, which can be small enough to appear on a business card, but can also be scaled to fill a billboard. Common types of vector graphics include Adobe Illustrator, Macromedia Freehand, and EPS files. Many Flash animations also use vector graphics, since they scale better and typically take up less space than bitmap images.

File extensions: .AI, .EPS, .SVG, .DRW

And he cannot design his own logo. He's busy? Pls try to learn and grab ai.

try again. the logos no try

flagship: try again. the logos no try

ok

Guy, dont mind flag, they'r gud and i prefer d 1st one. Neat and simple, also contains all ur frnd asked 4. Thumbs up

Logos should not contain gradients, especially unnecessary ones like those above.

that red stuff in the loop of your P disturbs the eye,as it has no patent meaning.

The logos actually look like web icons. I wudnt take any of those from you *shrug*


also, we don't know what the wing stuff cud possibly mean in a design company. In fact, this is just like a doodle,not an actual planned design.

hint : before u design stuff, go online and see what obtains. Google is your friend.

@spywareczar, You must be out of your mind, you like criticizing other peoples' work but you couldn't stand to be criticized Any professional graphics designer (apparently which you aren't) would agree that a logo shouldn't contain too many gradients, and like someone correctly pointed out, you should do your research well before embarking on any design, you can't call yourself a professional graphics designer when you don't even know what a vector graphic is. This is plain mediocrity!

. Ɣøµ all haters can keep hatin, nobody ɪ̣̝̇§ payin me on nairaland, ª♏ here designin & catchin my bucks & you re thre definin vector,, worthless beings, all you do ɪ̣̝̇§ go about the internet & stealin peoples work, upload your designs let's see,

sorry for criticizing your stuff o. Also very sorry for you if you think everybody here must come online and worship your less than mediocre design.

Truth is, you aren't much of a graphic designer, at least not yet. no amount of insult will make me change ya mind.

its okay sha. the type of people I work with won't take the sort of thing you design. My fellow respected designers wudnt even deign to believe that the stuff above is a logo.

carry on. we all have different levels of professionalism. enjoy yourself on the lower rungs.

@spywareczar: i'm really disappointed at your level of unprofessionalism. Not all designers are logo experts, i was a good designer long before i knew what a good logo was all about... like they said, a good logo designer shouldn't be ignorant of what a vector is in the first place. Flagship might not upload his works here which isn't an encouraging thing but he sure knows what he is talking about and i think a few of his works that i've seen speaks for him. A good designer never resort to foul languages all because he's being criticized, fact remains criticism is what greases our wheels. When you know they are right, works towards improving... when you know they are wrong, ignore. Simple.

Just so you know... you have seen my logos and you know they are not mediocre. I did reasonable research via google before creating each and every of my logos, so google is always a good friend of professionals who know what they are doing. Thank you

@Spywareczar, and u said ur friend is a graphics desiger? That tells me the kind of graphics designer u ar urself. He's a graphics designer but cannot design his own logo. What do u people mean when u usually say one is a graphics designer? Someone that puts images and texts together? Someone that doesnt know the difference between vector and raster? Someone that just designs some stuff for some northern based illiterate businessmen that usually like shouting colors and call color riot a creative design?

Like erad said, logo design is more than knowing how to design posters and handbills. Logo design is one way of knowing a professional graphics designer. Do u know that these big companies u hear about paid thousands of Dollar to design their logos? Some paid about 500,000 USD to design a logo? Do u know how much Olympic logo designer was paid? That tells u that a logo is not a joke.

@Erad & graphicsplus you both sound matured & I respect that, I didn't join nairaland coz am the best, I joined nairaland coz I want to learn & improve in ωª† I do & am sure learnin & improvin tanx to sum of your constructive criticism,, but in a situation whreby som1 decide to ridicule you coz of your work instead of consrtuctive criticism, how wil you react??

After I began teaching myself to design on Jan 1, 2008 . I never put my stuff online cos I was ashamed. I simply gave the impression that I was a genius designer when I suddenly started posting (only my closest friends saw my work while I laboured day and night on the Internet, going thru literally thousands of tutorials in those early days). The world has moved fast o. Up your game before you expect us to praise you.

Learn some more. When u come up here, learn to be criticised. I may speak harshly, but the pipu who know me know that's my style.

Also, I am sorry for you, touting big bucks over knowledge. Have you not heard that knowledge is power? U think big bucks is my problem? Set a standard of awesomeness, and all other things shall be added unto you. Companies will crawl.at your feet.

U think Google is for those who don't know anything? How conceited. Tell me the truth, if not for the internet,computer village and crackz, would you have ever been able to afford an original photoshop/CorelDraw software package? Don't be silly. The lesser grow by leaning on and learning from the greater.


*sigh. I talk too damn much. My weakness.

Due to @erad's subtle coercion, here is a sample of my logo stuff. I am not the best logo designer, I admit, and I have zero drawing skills, but I dare say (with courage borne of three years experience, grace and very hard learning) that I design class.
May the grace of Yahweh be with you.

Regards.
