Help Request- Conforming A Logo To A Circle's Edge Without Distortion

Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Darko, I'm from small country in Europe Montenegro. I have a passion for sports, mobile phone's and graphic design. I'm 21 years old and I'm studying telecommunications.

This year I'm planning to open my own gym for material arts (ju jitsu, judo, bjj, sambo, grappling, Judo and karate). I have black belt in judo and I'm grappling and sambo instructor.

I'm here because I want to design professional logo for my gym, something to be proud on and it represents me and my personality. I'm very bad at drawing, but I've found some designs from which I want to take some stuff. (Create it myself no direct copying).
I have general idea how I wish my logo to look like. As for now I'm not decided for the name, but that doesn't really play huge role yet.
I know I want my logo to be in circular form like this ones:









So I need some pointers how to make a circle like that. I think it looks very neat with border around it, what do you guys think?

As far as the inside of the circle go I'm thinking of leaving it blank for a logo on witch I'm not decided yet all I know is that I want to have that belt included



Preferred all black with withe letters in Japanese name of the gym on it.. That belt will be in the bottom of the circle and it will be kinda sticking out.. Something like that but a little lover:



Or something similar to that:



As far as font goes I'm pretty much undecided, I like fonts from all of the circle logos, if someone knows the names of the fonts I will be very grateful, if someone has some suggestions for the font I'm totally open to it also.

I want to learn how to do wrestling and judo and bjj mat, so maybe I can make that in logo also







Then there is secondary thing, logo for myself for T-shirt for business cards to represent myself to sponsors and for my personal team, my fans and supporters.. I'm thinking of the same circular logo as those for my club and I really want to include geek glasses like this ones:



And a beard as I have a beard and glasses..



I fund that one on the forum, I have similar beard

The font choice is still the same as for the gym logo..

That's all I have in my head for now.
I want to say I'm not requesting anyone to make something instead of me, because I want to say that I've made my logo myself and be proud on it for the years to come. Neither I have enough money to pay for your brilliant skills.
And I'm no pro in Photoshop I have it for about 5 years and everything I know I've learned myself I'm not a total noob, but comparing to you guys I'm pretty much exactly that. I know it will be hard but with help from you guys i think me/ with you guys can do it ! I will be really happy for any and all the help I can get!

Thank you very much guys.

Hello,
I am not sure if this is even a necessary worry of mine nut I will pitch it out anyway. I will be printing the attached file on the back of a white t-shirt and I wondered if there was any technique that could be used to reduce the harshness or abruptness of the image that may be seen when the image is printed onto the white shirt. The color at the edges of the image is very light / almost white so fortunetly in most areas of the print you may not be able to clearly see the edge. if I am not making any sense I guess what I am trying to say is I would like for it to seem like the image fades away at the edges slighhtly rather than seeing a clear edge of the picture. I could imagine using some kind of edge eraser tool with a spotty brush or partial opacity but not really sure the best way to try and achieve it. The picture unfortunetly has texy of my url running very close to the edges so I would like to be careful that we don't fade any text away. Just wondered I would see if there was a quick and easy way to do it. Ideas are welcome. If you do any work please post back your .psd file and a brief description (if it's not too complex) of how you did what you did.
Thanks,
Joe

I have no experience what so ever with Photoshop etc, and I wanted to make a logo for our Instagram profile. I tried a few times but some horrible things came out. Hence I started looking on google and found this forum. I would really appreciate it if someone could help me out.
I need a logo of the Galatasaray (soccer/football club) logo and the Dutch national flag mixed in a way. This is for a Dutch Galatasaray fan account.

Note that the Instagram profile picture is round.

Hello,
l would really appreciate some help since I am coming to a deadline for printing some material. My problem seems to me like it should be quite eas, I have come close to a sufficient solution on my own but still not quite good enough resolution to print 24"x18" signs. In any case my issue is that I have an old design file of mine for a 5"x3" sticker with a logo on it as seen. When I try to enlarge it to the 24"x18" size the edges are way too pixelated. I have tried different selection techniques as well as refining the edges but no luck to make a high res version as yet. It's a rather simple shape and frankly I don't even care if it is redrawn to match at high res. In any case here is a copy of the logo in its native size on a 24x18 photoshop canvas. There is an image and an attachment Photoshop file, I would greatly appreciate it if someone can download the photoshop file and repost it with their efforts.
Thanks,
Dino

Hey Gurus

I pop in a few times to learn new Photoshop tricks or to get a little help.

I'm a bit far away from my home computer at the moment so I guess I need help, at the moment. xD Hopefully, it won't take much of your time.



The sticker on first car, the one that says "OneWeekDrivingCourse.co.uk" and the logo along with it. I need them to be on the second car on the same area. (Note: The sticker that says 'quicksilver" and the indicator light don't need to be included.)

Hope it's not too much of a tedious task. :c

Please and (hopefully) thank you!

Hello!

I am trying to reshape a round image, with a very distinct texture and edge quality, into various different shapes. Most shapes will just have a small section knocked out of the circle (like turning an O into a C), but I want to maintain the edge quality and interior texture. I've played around with a few things but can't figure out the best way to accomplish this. Any ideas? What would you guys do?

Here is an image of a coffee stain to use as an example.



I'd like to turn it into a rounded "C" shape, like this:


Thanks so much for your help!

Does anyone have a tutorial on how to properly layer an image for the best effect.

For example, I have my guy he



I'd like to put our logo literally behind him to take the place of the door and imagery in the background of his picture. Here is the logo:

I know I could do a combiation of the magic tool/cut tool and erasing to get the background imagery out the way but is there a shorter/better way to get the logo behind just his face,neck and shoulders???

Any help would be appreciated guys.

Thanks a bunch!!

Can you point me to a tutorial on distorting text in PS CC 2014?

I've been asked, by a friend, to do a postcard like project that uses photos
behind text as done in the image attached of a billboard here in town. The
word is "FAIR", not "Orlando" as in the sign.

I know how to create the open text letters and all the other steps of this
type of project, but I don't know how to distort the text letters similar to
what is done here.

I've played around with putting each letter on a layer and trying to
distort them, but haven't had much luck in getting what I want.

Not asking for it to be done. Teach me how or point me to a tutorial,
please.

Hi all

I understand my thread title may not make much sense but i will describe what i want and then go into detail below

1. The background image i want is for a blog, it needs to be a mixture of these colours http://i2.aroq.com/1/aldi-lidl.jpg whatever is easiest for you to do is fine with me but the nearer it is to all those colours the better

2. I want a rectangular logo for the header of blog, could someone please create a logo with the name LIDALD and for the LID part of name try to make it similar to the text of the LIDL logo and for the ALD part of the name try to make it similar to the text of ALDI however if you are unable to achieve this i will appreciate the best you can do even if it just something basic i will like it

The blog is http://lidald.blogspot.co.uk and is a blog i am starting to specialise in reviews for grocery products they sell, it is not a blog i will be making any profit from, it is going to be a hobby where i will post random product reviews in my spare time which i have plenty of

I will appreciate anything you can make for me, and i hope everything i have requested is within the rules

Thank you

Any questions please ask

I think I came to the right place

So, I have this picture




This picture...Contains many gems. As you can see, behind the cross text of Rihanna and Kanye, there are words showing from the piece of paper behind it. A lot of letters are legible, but the full word is hard to make out. I noticed that when I tilt my screen though, it sort of becomes easier to read, however I still can't make out the words.

This can be key to unlocking a lot of information for Rihanna and Kanye fans, such as myself. If one of you are able to manipulate the picture to make the words behind the paper legible, I'm sure news outlets around the world will pick it up, and will credit this site.

So, if you guys are truly photoshop guru's, you should be able to do something. Prove yourselves..
