GIMP Tutorial: Design a Logo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- How to create a simple logo using GIMP. I normally don't recommend using raster applications to create logos (vectors are ideal) but if you just need something simple for limited use it should be alright as long as you create it at a very large size.

This tutorial is for GIMP version 2.8 and is intended to teach beginners how to use the software. Inkscape is a great free alternative to Adobe Photoshop.

How come I don’t have as many tools as you
Thank you so much for making this tutorial. I have just started out with digital media and up until now I've just been practising my artistic style but today my brother approached me and asked me to design a logo for him for his new business! My first commission! So naturally I headed straight to UA-cam to get some pointers and this video is everything I needed! So again, thank you!
Lergle Create i hope your brothers business is going well
Hey man I hope you know how much you still help people. I just used your tutorial for making a face into a galaxy and did so with a picture of my father who has long ago passed away. It meant the world to me to be able to do so. So thank you for taking the time.
Glad I could help! Thanks for sharing.
Also this Friday I shall be purchasing your course. I have more I want to learn and do so again thank you.

Hey nick, Can you show how you do your logo? It's so cool and I want to know how to make it like that
Looking to start learning how to use this. Mainly to do custom backdrops to photos. Is that possible with this?
Thanks for another quality Gimp the tutorial. I'm curios, why can't you just use Delete on a Mac. I looked it up and they do have a delete key like a standard keyboard. Did the Gimp developers disable it for Mac for some reason?
Thank you for this tutorial :)
AMAZING
Hey Nick. I'm learning a lot. Thank you. However, I'm facing 1 issue.
I have the 2.10.20 version of gimp installed and the autocrop to layer tool seems to be missing in the layer menu.
Could you please guide me on the same?

How do you make sure that your text is aligned. It won’t let me center my text unless I just eyeball it with the move tool
Thanks mate

Good video, I want to download this video, thanks !
I don't know what's wrong, I followed your guide but when I made the square on the 1/4 corner then fill with FG, the whole logo is filled with FG and not the one I only selected. Why? lol
Hello there..Nick. Question: Couldn't I make a logo in gimp then put it in inkscape to make it a clear usable vector?
Hey what’s the name of the recommended logo making applications you spoke about at the beginning of this video?
Inkscape
