Logos are a great way to help potential customers tell a reputable well-established company from one run part-time in someone’s basement. Business people know this, and that’s why good designers get paid good money for their design skills, while bad ones languish on pirated copies of Photoshop.
But if you manage to sell someone on your design capabilities, there’s still a chance you could gain notoriety, even if your design skills are absent. Your logo might end up on Yourlogomakesmebarf.com, a website dedicated to showcasing the most awesomely bad logos ever created to represent real, live companies. All the greatest amateur mistakes are here: MS Paint logos, illegible type, retina-burning color choices, logos that could not possibly hope to be reproduced in real world applications, etc.
Also check out their Instant Oval Logo Maker, a surefire way to make a great logo that will be forgotten the instant it’s out of sight.
Thanks, Chris!
