Admittedly I have zero artistic ability and even less artistic vision, so pretty much everything I do art related/logo related is copying some other idea. Anyways, I've put a ton of time into Adobe Illustrator and I understand the basics of how to make a logo that at least resembles that of those in this thread - though obviously with zero actual vision of my own. This is my first attempt at a logo. It feels like it's missing something (maybe some more gray somewhere else on the logo?) but for my first logo I'll run with it. Maybe if I keep trying to learn stuff I'll actually learn how to do something on my own...
