With respect, all you really done was show us how to download and install a font then use it in Photoshop. Since there was no real designing here you missed out a cool step that makes the process easier: on dafont.com you can change the text of the font list so you can type in your DJ name here and get a real feel of how your DJ name looks in that font before you even download it, saving lots of time.

there is alot more then just picking a font for a logo… actually all the logos i have created i designed my own fonts from scratch,

Hey!

Your tut isn’t a bad idea, especially for those who don’t know how to make a simple logo.
Nevertheless a logo is something unique, you can’t just use a font like this!

i don’t think a logo is absolutely necessary for a artist, if you really need one ask a designer to make your logo!

However great initiative man!

I focused on creating a cool icon first (as seen in my avatar pic)… text is next. Problem is, my lettering style tends to be wild-style graffiti, which is a bit hard to read for branding. I’m just not as happy with logos that don’t have a lot of things goin’ on. heh

I’m a HUGE graf fan - but it very rarely works in logos.

Even REALLY GOOD handstyle doesn’t look great as a logo.

There are tons of text/font tutorials out there - start with a typeface that you like, and work it up into a font.

Quick/dirty example: http://www.tutorialwiz.com/blingbling/

A REALLY easy technique, is to convert the text to paths, and then join letters up by disconnecting, moving, and re-connecting (and closing the path) nodes…

yeah–as someone who’s done graphic design professionally for 15 years… a might insulting. but some folks, I’m sure, benefited greatly from that equivalent of pushing the design ‘sync’ button. shoulda used ‘Papyrus’ font, brah!
