Does anyone know a really good graphic designer?? I'm currently re-designing the HQ network, for many reasons, and I really would like to get a professional logo done, unlike our existing one which i did myself.
If you know of a great or excellent graphic/logo designer, who will be able to work with us here on 360-HQ please leave a link or whatever information you have.
It will still take a fair few months before most of you will see the new look, but I'm hoping it will improve the community. ETA: December 2012 _________________________________________________________ HQ Network:

I'm pretty much just good at editing up already made photos. I completely suck at making a totally new picture from scratch.
Other then Photoshop CS5, that's about all I can think of but you gotta know your shit to mess with that. So many damn features in that program it's all to over whelming.
hey hobbs sorry i vanished last night we had some issues and didn't get a chance to get back on. anyhow Bethany is good with that sort of thing i can ask if she wouldn't mind helping out if you want ? _________________________________________________________

what does the logo need to be, do you need it like a banner format, or no set shape like some kind of logo with transparency, I have a new logo making program but have never used it, if you could put up some examples of the style or type of logos you think are cool from other companies/products to give me an Idea, I would like to play around for fun at least.
also, what kind of shape/area do we have to play with, size etc. I looked at that sample 1 page, were you looking for something to replace the white text you have at top left or something to be on whole top, just up an right corner? Im just clueless on this stuff, but show me what you like and what area I have to work with and I can go from there.
