Create Word Art Logos with GIMP

Sdílet

  • In this tutorial I’ll be demonstrating how to create simple word art-style logos using a piece of free design software known as GIMP. For this example we’ll be creating a silhouette tracing of a buffalo with the letters of the word “buffalo” making up the silhouette.
    Normally I don’t use GIMP for logo design because logos are better suited for the vector format, but for this sort of design I find it’s easier to use GIMP because we’ll be utilizing a lot of manual brush strokes. So my approach here is to create the structure of the logo in GIMP, then import it into Inkscape to create a true vector tracing that would be appropriate for use as a logo.

    Hey Nick! Thanks for the good Gimp tutorials! I was wondering if you could make a video about making these logos into a png format, and remove the background. I really want to create some nice overlays and logos for my twitch streams. I made some logos using your tutorials, but i can't seem to figure out how to make it into a png picture. When i try removing the background it just creates a white image when i try to export it.
