When a product mysteriously has 6 reviews all from April 5 and 6, all written in the same style, with the same exclamation points everywhere, the usual marketing superlatives like "fantastic", "amazing", etc., the entire rating system becomes corrupted for legitimate users and legitimate reviews. Marketing people will need to learn to let actual USERS review products.

The images (templates) in this program are terrible. Some don't render correctly when I open them. Some are only partially there.
The program overall, however, has potential. Not a bad interface, (but on my 800x600 monitor settings, I can't get it to work properly). - but an interface does not make a product. They claim 200 templates, but I can get these kind of "templates" from any clip art library.

A bit disapointed with this product.

One of the absolute worst software graphic packages I have ever used. Glaring typos on the interfaces, buggy, screen freezes, cannot make gifs, when you close then open a project your graphics show up mis-aligned, it double-saves (i.e. one copy and then a sub folder with another copy??). If you are trying to use transparent backgrounds you are in for more surprises... For instance, the transparency background will appear white after closing and opening and you will have to start again.

Cut and paste does not work, updates do practically nothing, etc. etc. etc. I would love to sell this back to the company and also charge them for all my wasted time. Go to GIMP or find some other product. Knowing what I know now after using it I would NEVER have bought Logo Design Studio. Totally lousy product.

Okay, i didn't want to buy a logo software, since I already had Paint Shop Pro 8.0 and my plain but-trusty Microsoft Paint Program, which I use for all graphics needs. So I decided to put my own art skills and creativity to the test using graphics programs to create my logo, instead hiring somebody to do it for me (spending a ton of money and I might even like it as much as if i do it myself!).

I was able to put together a few logo ideas with those graphic programs of mine, but it TOOK SO LONG, it WAS NOT POLISHED AND CLEAN, I WISH THERE WERE LOGO-LIKE TEMPLATES. I bought a few cheaper logo softwares (under $50 range), and this software was the best out of all of them.

I would not call this a 99 cent type of logo software. There's far worse than this. The good points about this one compared to other crappier software IMO:
- Sharp looking templates
- Templates offer a wide variety of colors
- Templates do not look cheap and drawn out, or way too flashy

Mind you, I was going for a "large corporation look", rather than a cheap, low-budget, internet start-up look. So this program really had the style to accomplish this objective of mine.
(The other software had a lot of flashy templates, where you could create logos for perhaps a bar or nightclub down the street, not for a professional company that would to be respected by serious clients.)

As far as a software to help me brainstorm ideas, and easily put together and test out a wide range of colors and shapes, that come out looking clean, sharp, and refined...the software really eased my ability to do so. The other graphics programs (however good for pictures and drawings and other applications), were not designed specifically or making logos... thus they took a lot longer and ended up being less clean and polished than what this logo software could produce in a lot less time.

I'm glad I shelled out the $30 i did to help me develop my very own logo with my own mind and bare hands. If you care about your company, but still are on a budget, and want something that will pop out prospective logos easily (and let you tweak all your ideas easily) this would be worth the $30.

I admit I am a newbie at graphics programs, but I have not been able to do even basic text editing with this one.
I have been struggling for weeks just to get some decent-looking text onto the canvas. The controls are mystifying, the "manual" is a thin little brochure and the online support has still not responded to me after 10 days and 2 e-mails. I really wasted my money and will have to find a new program now.

Will Amazon allow an accurate, negative report of a product which has been bought by a bona-fide consumer? Let's see shall we.
This piece of software is terrible. It is painfully slow (even on a Mac 2 x 2.5 ghz dual intel with 3.5 gig of RAM) - it has amateurish preset graphics, the library of images is tiny, it is difficult to preview effects, drawing is massively limited, and it has NO UNDO FEATURE. This means that if you make a mistake, and accidentally delete a design or part of a design that you may have spent hours on, there is no way of getting it back. If it does have a (well-hidden) undo feature either on the Mac or PC, then please let me know.
I might upgrade my rating to two stars.

I have this company's Logo Design Studio 3.0 and have found it to be completely useless, even for the simple job i purchased it for. I have spent frustrating hours with a confusing interface creating a simple logo, saved it, and returned to find the logo completely corrupted and unsalvageable. Even if you try to use their preloaded logos, the same thing happens. I have tried this on 3 different PCs with both Vista and XP OS and have gotten the same results. I have tossed this garbage in the trash and am now in search of a reputable software company who makes a simple and workable logo program.

I admit that I'm a rookie at this, but stay far away from this product. It's 375mb of junk.
No-refunds. No Support, No contact number... check their website.

What an absolute waste of time. Totally lacking in user friendly tools. Class A crap. I paid for it. At least if i"d bought the disk, it might have been useful as a christmas tree decoration.

Too bad this is such rubbish.
I have purchased a few of these logo making tools.

This one is not the one I am going to keep.
