Logo or header is the first thing that people see when they come to your blog. So, it’s very important to make it beautiful, outstanding and correctly represent you and your blog.
Great first impression will make visitor remember your blog as being unique. And, combine that uniqueness with great content will make your blog stand-out among the crowd.
There are many ways to create a logo for your blog. You can either create it on your own or simply pay someone to do it for you.
The logo for MomBloggersPlanet.com for example, was created by myself when it first went online. I just took a photo and use Microsoft Word to come out with a simple logo.
Then, I come across a website own by a Malay mom who happens to be gifted in water color drawing. Her works are beautiful and artistic. I like her work so much that I decided to buy a customised logo from her. It’s not cheap but I love it so much!
One of the simplest way of making a blog logo/header is by using your collection of photos. I’m sure you have hundreds (or even thousands) of that, right?
All you need is a Photo Editing tool such as PhotoShop, GIMP or simply Picasa.
The photo below is the original before any editing done.
Here is some samples of the photo edited using Picasa (free download).
And, here some more samples edited using Photoshop. It’s amazing what a Photo Editing tool can do for you!
