hye,,
i want to start learning logo designing in my vacation ,,if any one here can help me ..and tell me which software i should use for this purpose????????

The software depends on your budget. The most effective logos are those that are plain so you could get away with a cheap title. People with say Photoshop is a must - it's expensive but very versatile.

A tablet is a good idea - that way you can draw your designs first and then tweak them on the pc

Personally I use Paintshop Pro but heres a very versatile free program to get started with.

RahmanImager is an advanced full featured digital Image processing and Manipulation platform with support for layers, vast arrays of filters, Special Effects, Artistic Colorizing, Tools, optimizers etc. It is one of the best alternative to expensive and complex image editors like Adobe Photoshop, Corel etc. Frequently used features and tools that are found in these high end systems are implemented in RahmanImager with less ambiguity. With arrays of Filters, Effects and Artistic Colorizing options, Images can be refined to give a more holistic ingredients. You can adjust size, canvas, rotate, flip, crop, resample, anti-alias, morphing, transparency etc and it also supports multiple Image Documents. If you are familiar with Adobe Photoshop, then you are already familiar with RahmanImager. RahmanImager supports full layer capability with optional transparency and various text effects. Move each layer anywhere, edit and customize each layer independently. Win98/Me/NT/2k/XP. 5,7!
