Reflection of the Logo: Photoshop skills

While working on my final logo I utilized a much more simple method than I should have done and that has resulted in a complete yet unsatisfactory logo. We are advised to use Photoshop yet I thought it would be interesting to combine both Microsoft Word and Paint to complete the task. I had realized that there were a lot less options to manipulate the text and the design. Therefore I have decided to focus more on Photoshop in Lynda.com.
