Well we had to get a clipart image from a word document, and then make it better on fireworks. That includes shading, glow, changing colour, text (company name), background etc.

Make one on photoshop, save it as .png, send it to your school computer and tell her you did it on fireworks.

Tell me what the logo is for and I'll make you one to use...lol..(if it has to be a specific clip-art image).

Your teacher doesn't sound as if she should be teaching IT AT ALL.

I dont see how they will know if you used Fireworks or not once its printed on paper though. We are encouraged to go away from the booklet and use our own tools.

Maybe save it on a USB stick or something, and say you ''did it at home.'', if the computers have something wrong with the software and she sees the ''LOL YOU CAN'T SAVE THAT LOL'' pop-up, then she won't go ballistic.

Help! :)

Well, she's a crap teacher then - if I put the word 'ICT' on a word document, printed it and handed it in on time, I'd get an A*...

If it's coursework and there's a final deadline, there's no way around it - unless your teacher asks the necessary people for more time.

Export the file to my pictures instead of saving it. That's what we're told to do.

Make it at home and then take it in on a flashdrive... is what i did as I refused to use Fireworks :)

On my ICT Course, the school have imposed a rule that your not allowed to work off-site. USBs are disabled as it is anyway so it's rather difficult. Upload to Google docs and print off at home (You can't download anything at school). It's all MS Office and SERIF (eww)

Out of interest, are you doing the course were you have to design a logo for a fictional company, and then design a letterhead, business document, invoice etc? We're doing that atm and it sucks :P

I designed my logo on Paint lol.

OCR Nationals I think you are referring to Jordy.
