It’s great to see the thought process behind some of these designs. That seems to be as valuable as learning how to manipulate images in Illustrator. I’m always trying to tweak my logo design process and I’ll be interested to go through these. Thanks for the roundup!

Nice list of logos. There’s a couple that really stand out to me, while a few seem kind of amateurish. Vivid Ways and myNiteLife are my two favorite. Always have been killer logos in my eyes.

I love to see other designers’ process on logos, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a large roundup for logo walkthroughs. I’ve already read a couple, but I can’t wait to read through the rest! Thanks!

Thanks for posting the tutorials. Really liked them! Especially the Vividways one. I got my designer from LogoDesignStation to design a logo for me based on a few of the tutorials that inspired me. It looks great and was affordable too. Thanks again for posting the tutorial links…
