  once i come in here and start chatting, i become addicted and can't get off.

  the problem is that all your artistry means bunk when it comes to the computer programs out there

  Ah yes, but that is why I'm here to ask about the recommended programs.

  When is it time to tell your adult children get the Blank out?

  to me there is a definite difference in my generation and the one coming after me, when i graduated you basically had three choices.

  military, college or a fulltime job which meant more than 40 and you were expected to grow up, today kids are seen as postponing this for years, it reminds me of the proverbs 29:21 kjv says .

  21 he that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.. when is it time to push the little birds from the nest and tell them to flap real hard?.

  Wow, I'm sorry about your kid!

  I was a BARELY 18 year old chick when I took off from my over-controlling parents' house. They would have loved to keep me living there until I died of old age, but I couldn't stand their rules anymore. So, I graduated trade school at 17 (teacher didn't know I was underage. Took the entire course, and then he's like, "you're only 17?" I'm in trouble, don't tell anyone and hold off on the final exam until you turn 18), turned 18, found an apartment, and fled. The class I took wasn't for a job that I liked, in particular. It was a job I knew I could do with the pay I knew would take care of me, and I even had extra to save. This was methodically planned out when I was 15, and I carried it out to a T, while counting down the days until I'd turn 18.

  The best thing they ever did for me was purchased my car in cash for me. I've never paid one car note in my life, because Hondas are cheap and last forever.

  The other thing they did was imposed lots of petty rules and never allowed me privacy.

  Could you tamper with his private life until he hates you? That would be a great way to make him want to leave. You see how I planned out my entire escape route by age 15? If you torture him, he will start planning ways to get the hell out!

  Go through his room. Confiscate his porn and CDs. Take pictures/posters/ANYTHING you can find. Say it is demonic and throw it all away. If his comforter is blue, toss it and say that the color blue is demonized. If his bedsheets are grey, confiscate those and say that the color grey is demonized. Anything you can find that will nip at his patience, call it demonic and throw it away. He will leave on his own!

  EDITED: He won't ever return if you do it this way. He will have nightmares for years to come!

  Thanks for the links! I was checking out that first one earlier when I was browsing google for ideas. I was told that when you use a program, you come across lots of glitches, making it worthless. Is this true? With all the designers out there, throwing their web ads at you to buy their design, you'd think you could find what they were using to make them! Again, maybe that's the whole point, lol.

  So you are recommending Corel?

  It is actually going to be a very simple design. It just needs to be clean, and preferrably print-ready.

  Well, I know you didn't mean any offense by it. But believe it or not, I am a very artistic person and I would do a hell of a good job designing it. In fact, I have had a designer give me a few examples of their work and I was not impressed at all.

  I'm not looking for someone to design it. I just need advice on how to get my ideas onto a computer. I have faith in myself, and nothing creative that I do ever sucks. I rock.

  Yeah cool, you see? That's what I'm talking about! I want it to be my own. In fact, I did do a few prototypes on paper. I just can't materialize them onto a computer screen. I really need them to be of high quality too, because it says so much about a business.

  Good luck with the tat!

  So, that's a compliment... for y'all, not for me.

  About my question: I am in need of some advice from you graphics-savvy ones here. I am in need of a business logo, and I have heard mixed feelings from people about buying a program and designing one myself. I already know what I want it to look like, but to get it from my mind and onto a computer screen is quite tricky. Any advice? I have the option of paying someone else to do it and not getting me what I want, or to make it myself.

  I also plan to design my own website in the future, if that helps with the decision at all.

  Let me know your thoughts :)
