For myself actually. To make a long story short, is photoshop what I should use to create it? I'd like it to be scalable, vector I believe it's called, but wouldn't Illustrator be a better choice for this? The logo will probably be some fancy text, with a bit of a effect, and a very simple identification mark.
Nothing out of the ordinary or breathtaking, just something simple and to the point.
Something similiar to these: http://www.logodesignworks.com/consulting-logos.htm

Yes. Illustrator or some other vector drawing program would be best, I think. |

Well I have Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator.
InDesign and Illustrator seem to be very similiar. I like the laters easier interface though, not to mention you can do effects reminiscent of Photoshop. _________________ // Best Regards - T.W.L. |

InDesign is a desktop publishing program, whereas Illustrator is a vector creating program.
Two different things.
Illustrator is the program to create your logos with.
InDesign to create your booklets with _________________ WHAT WOULD VAN GOUGH HAVE DONE WITH PHOTOSHOP |

Yeah, I suppose you COULD use Illustrator to do both, but that's not what it's supposed to do. Oh well, vectors here I come! _________________ // Best Regards - T.W.L. |
