Do you own a business, blog, YouTube channel, or some other type of personal brand? If so, you know how important branding is. Your logo is a key part of your brand. It is a visual way that the public identifies you. When they see your logo, as well as the rest of your branding, you want to put your best foot forward. You know what they say about making a good first impression.
What do you do if you aren’t a graphic designer or a Photoshop wizard? The good news is that graphic design has come a long way. These days you don’t have to be a graphic designer to create the images that you need. If you need a quality logo, DesignEvo may be your solution. They claim to be easy to use, feature packed, and to provide a quality logo creation. Let’s take a closer look and see if DesignEvo would be right for you.
What is DesignEvo Logo Maker?
DesignEvo is a web based logo creation tool. It is set up to be so easy to use that you can just pick a template, apply your edits, and download your new logo. It is freemium in that you can design and download your logo for free with limited features.
DesignEvo system requirements:
- Windows, Linux, or Mac
- Modern web browser
- Internet connection
That’s it. If you have a computer, modern web browser, and an internet connection you can use DesignEvo.
When it comes to pricing you have the options of using it for free and two paid plans to choose from. All prices that I am posting here are current as of the time of this writing.
Free:
- Download the logo that you create for free as a low resolution image
- Maximum resolution of 300 x 300 px
- To download and use your logo they want you to share DesignEvo on social media
- They want you to paste a code on your website giving DesignEvo credit for your logo
Basic plan:
- One time price of $24.99
- High resolution files up to 5000 px
- Transparent PNG
- Edit and re-download
- Lifetime support
- Print ready
Plus plan:
- One time price of $49.99
- High resolution files up to 5000 px
- Transparent PNG
- Edit and re-download
- Lifetime support
- Print ready
- Vector files
- Download font files
- Copyright ownership
Which plan to choose? You can create and download your logo entirely for free. On the other hand, I would personally opt for a paid plan for the higher resolution logo and copyright ownership. Both paid plans give you an attractive and quality logo. They make creating a logo extremely easy. If you would like to receive the vector files, fonts, and want to own the copyright of your logo (If it was me I would) then pay the $49.99 for a Plus account.
How to Make a Logo with DesignEvo Logo Maker
Go to the DesignEvo website.
Click “Make a Free Logo”.
Choose the template that you want to use. There are thousands to choose from.
Here is the one that I selected:
Point at the template and click “Customize”.
You will have a screen that looks something like this:
Click and enter the name and slogan. You can either enter the name and slogan in the “Add Logo Name” and “Add Slogan fields or directly on the image itself. I found it easier to do it directly on the image. To do so just click on “COMPANY NAME” and enter the name that you want. Do the same for your slogan where is says “SLOGAN HERE”.
Now it’s time to edit the template. You can edit the icon, text, shape, and background.
In the “ICON” tab you can change the icon of the logo.
You can also change the color of, flip, change the opacity of, layer, duplicate, delete, change the resolution of, and change the layout of the icon. Just click on the icon and make your edits.
In the “TEXT” tab you can edit your logo’s text. You can change font, font size, and the color of the font. You can also apply bold, apply italics,add effects to your font, format your text, and change font case.
In the “SHAPE” tab you can edit the shape of your logo.
In the “BACKGROUND” tab you can edit the logo background.
Here is what I ended up with. Keep in mind that I am not a graphics designer.
From here you can preview, save, and download your new logo.
