The name of the company should be one of the lines in the fingerprint?

But they sure want to be able to read their name when the logo is on a business card, right?

So maybe they want to rethink the idea.

To learn how to use Illustrator to draw your designs, just go to the Help section of the menu and read your way through the documentation. Or search for good training in your area if you want to get there quicker.

Literally running a website of services (homeservicesnearme) in Austin but am unable to design the best logo that attracts the customer as well as other communities. Let me know how can i use Adobe, is there any recommended tutorial on this?

As I'm tight on the budget so I can't hire anyone who can design. I want to design by myself by learning from any platform. If there are some videos for creating stunning videos, let me know plz.

You can just go to the main menu, way to the right there is the Help section. This leads you to tutorials.

You have to learn the boring basics, before you can continue to the stunning things.

Then also you might want to learn the basics of design and video and so on. But probably you just want to pay someone for it, because learning to do it yourself will cost you so much more.

rivka,

You may start with something like this,

https://duckduckgo.com/?q=fingerprint+pattern+vector&t=h_&ia=web

and then use the live Type as a Clipping Mask (or outline and turn into a single compound path), then Object>Expand (Appearance) a copy when you are there.

For readability, it is crucial that that (the gap width in the) fingerprint pattern is small enough as compared to the letters, the shorter the text the easier.

hi rivka

sorry I'm a little tired and not exactly sure what you mean -the words imprinted in the fingerprint?

Anyway i think you would be best working in Illustrator rather than photoshop to make any logo

Here`s a sticky post from another forum nicely explaining why and a few other logo design tips to bear in mind

Get some ink, make a finger print with your finger, scan or the a photo, live trace it with adobe illustrator, and pick from there on your design

If live trace does not work, get the pen tool and roll up the sleeves and trace it.
