Hi all! I know some people have said the template link is wrong or missing. It has always still worked on my end but I updated it just to make sure. You should see the sample logo files, a CS6 version of the template and an .ait version which should be the right one for the majority of you!

I've been a professional designer for nearly 20 years, but I'm also autistic. I'm constantly looking for the "right" way to do something because that's how my brain works. If it's not right, don't bother, right? But over time I've learned that what's "right" for someone else isn't right for me or even my clients. What you've done here is provide guidelines for designers to learn a great method that can easily be adapted for any situation. Following. You're a great tutorialist.

First time mom of a now 1 year old. I finished my last semester of Graphic Design school in May of '22 and I had her in January. My husband travels for work and is gone 2-3 weeks at a time. I am just now feeling confident in myself to begin creating/doing what I love, while also being a mother. Your intro just confirmed for me everything I needed to hear. Thank you so much.

What I always say to myself when my brain is comparing me to someone else is that, what my brain is doing its grapling onto a very little piece of the life of the other person and puts that little piece in contrast with all the roles of my life, so even if someone is going through a rough time in other aspects of their life my brain can't process that because it doesn't know, just wanted to share this thought, great video

One thing that I realized is that this is CYMK format... Wouldn't you use an RGB Format for social media and web based platforms?

@addisongabe 2 жыл бұрын

Good catch! It honestly should be set to RBG. Personally, I don't stress too hard on CMYK / RGB unless there are lots of blues in the logo because that is the main color that does not translate very well to CMYK. Most of my clients lean far more digital than print so really the template should be RBG. I'll update it! Thanks!
