Well, perhaps we should keep the conversation going here so that it stays on the 'recent posts' list! :)
How did you create the logo- CAD program or Illistrator, or pen/ink/paint?

Good idea! ;P
I drew it out and painted it with acyrlic paints, then touched it up with Photoshop using my drawing tablet. :)

It looks very professional! (Unlike my spelling in my last post, that was either a typo or I didn't have my glasses on! :lol:)
Did you make it at school or was it a project you did at home? *Simsample hopes people are seeing this and voting*

Done and done. I voted for it! At first, I thought it was one that had already been selected, and I was getting ready to congradulate you! Good thing I read the post. Good luck and keep us posted!
(I have a soft spot in my heart for anything Irish - over 50% of my maternal family tree is from the Emerald Isle!)

I made out sketches and plans in my Art class, and I drew out and painted the design at home. :)
*Guysim crosses fingers*
@MSD Thank you so much! :D
@Kierne Thank you, and yay, more Irish people! :lol:
