I hear you, man - but after 4 years of design school and another 3 years in the industry, I can honestly say you're only half right. As much as any designer worth his pixels hates to admit it, a big portion of our job really is "making things look pretty" - or to put it more professionally, to "elicit an emotional response". You're thinking with your male brain too much... High-brow "symbolic meanings" might make for compelling project rationales and case studies... but IRL, those things are only fascinating to other designers, especially when it's about their own work.
The general public (for whom the design is almost always for) really doesn't register these things at that level. If it don't look cool, they don't care. But that said, "cool" is as much an emotional science as "symbolic" is an intellectual one.
Conclusion: It takes both to design a great logo. - Nargath, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Dammit, I read that as saying LEGO Design Tutorials. Now I'm disappointed :(
- resplence, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12Logo tutorials - this is awesome. I didn't know there were step-by-step instructions to achieve creative insight, branding conceptualization and abstraction.
Somewhere along the road design got confused with its tools. This is exactly the reason web 2.0 logos suck. Designing a logo is not only about creating something good-looking, or being clever with letters, shapes and colors. Good logos have a symbolic meaning that goes beyond aesthetics. That said, the only REAL and valuable article on that list about logo creation is http://www.ideasonideas.com/2007/01/small_companies/
Oddly enough, it doesn't have any pictures. - whereswayne, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9should read "the ONLY 50 logo design tutorials"
- Asvetic, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8I enjoy a good tutorial now and then, it's a shame this list didn't have any.
- Charlotte_Web, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4So many logos are over-designed. People think that they have to make it really exquisite to stand out, when the reality is that the more complex it is, the more difficult it is to remember.
Have you ever noticed that the largest companies often have the simplest logo designs? - praisethelard, on 06/06/2008, -2/+6I hope one of those tutorials covers how to hide a penis in the logo.
- digg-dugg, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5A lot of these aren't logos, they're icons. A professional logo should always be able to be reproduced in monotone or black and white.
- alanic, on 10/11/2007, -0/+450? Now I'll have to skip sleep again.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Anyone else read it as Lego designs?
- blueeyedmonster, on 10/11/2007, -1/+450? 10 would have been plenty considering the first 3 I clicked on said nearly the exact same thing.
More != better. - Discobiscuits, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3No idea how my ***** glossy arrow icon got on that top 50, that guy must of put those tutorials together straight from his ass -_-
The best tutorial on that page has to be http://www.ndesign-studio.com/resources/tutorials/illustrator-cs2-splash/ ... ndesign has my favorite illustrator tutorials. - DietMountainDew, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5Sorry for abuse, a better mirror:
http://www.elogodesign.com.nyud.net:8080/logo-design-tutorials/ - Aaryn015, on 12/24/2008, -0/+2Goes to a corporate designer homepage. Must have been removed and rediverted, but that may have been the plan all along.
Buried as spam. - LowROI, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Good set of professional logo tuts.
- Volatile36, on 01/06/2009, -0/+2Now spam.
- smhill, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Save some time, just go to : http://www.illustrationclass.com
11 of them (mostly the good ones) are straight from Vonster's site. - newl, on 10/11/2007, -2/+4And the best tutorial of all would be:

LEFT 90 - poolmanjim, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1The designs posted up were okay but very few of them inspired me much. Yes, they could help generate ideas but isn't creating a logo somewhat about creativity?
I'm certain there are going to be several websites pop up with VERY similar logos to those because creativity seems to be rather difficult to locate from time to time.
Overall, the logos were okay, they could use some work though. It would have been better to have something like a "Photoshop/Illustrator Tutorial: Commonly Used Logo Techniques." - atomicshed, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1i've just had a 20 year flash back!
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Well, hold on now. Before we cast off this idea in bitter mockery, let us ask ourselves - do the girls come with?
- pveltrent, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1some of those are cool, but what the hell is that "tribal art" crap towards the bottom. Great, now we can design logos, and resell them as slutty lower back tattoos! We are all going to be rich!
- jonashwing, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1EXACTLY.
Exhaustive would have been a better description - slapthemonkey, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Thanks for the tutorial. Good help.
- starsonstars333, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1not a bad site..very informative.
- rajakontes, on 07/27/2009, -0/+1just make simple logo. logo not important but content
- Optimaximal, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Is it a pen, or a turtle?
- Discobiscuits, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Indeed, but you know, people have to start somewhere. This is still a decent compilation for someone just beginning with this. They can get techniques down and extend them into better vector logos (or at least a select few will.)
- alecpriester, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Ha, "Logos for the Design Challenged by Gary Priester"
no relation, but not a very common last name. - kaph, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2@chemam (#6802732)
Maybe you should start reading better tutorials. - firewalker06, on 11/21/2007, -0/+0I don't think the top 50 is really the best one.
- chemam, on 10/11/2007, -3/+3i don't think any tutorial will actually teach you how to design a logo, it might teach you the tools but not the design principles.
- conceptmedia, on 01/30/2008, -0/+0Awesome Tutorial!
- companylogos, on 07/06/2009, -0/+0Use these websites to increase your skill in logo designing
http://www.logotutorials.com/

- pcmagweb, on 08/08/2008, -1/+0Didn't see any tutorials... looks like the page is gone now.
I've personally had better success with weblogomaker.com vs. trying to learn all these tutorials.
http://www.weblogomaker.com - rasterbator, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1Thanks for pushing the design and printing industry back another year.
"I can do one of those logos. I saws it on the internets."
If you have no experience or education in design or printing, please leave this up to a professional who knows how to create a logo that will produce well in most situations. DO not let this empowere you! I am talking to you, CEO of that startup that just got funding... - agate, on 10/11/2007, -2/+0a really good web!!!
- TWill, on 10/11/2007, -5/+2I though it said "Top 50 LEGO Design Tutorials"...I was looking forward to see some cool Lego creations... :-)
