Got A Problem

[T-Craq]

I'm working on a logo and the colors are blue and black, but since my bg is black too I have to outline it (pref. with white color) but if I add stroke it fucks it all up because the shape seems too "edgy" or "round", what can I do? would it make any sense to do the logo in illustrator? or is the resolution of 72dpi too low? the last resort would probably be to draw the outlines myself, huh?

help me...

Here's what I'm talking about:

Try selecting the shape ( ctrl + T ) expanding the selection by two pixels, filling the selection on a layer below the shape layer with the color you want for the outline.

or

I say use a combonation of both inner glow and inner stroke with the circle things. Making the border a bigger pixel will help too. Making your logo 300 dpi is a must and you should use it on all your print work or logo designes.

^exactly, don't send your images to print when theyre made at like a 72dpi lol. An outer glow would add a soft touch to it. Good idea.

^^well, to be honest that logo is no big deal, but I just need one for the website, will come up with something better later the way

^exactly, don't send your images to print when theyre made at like a 72dpi lol.

I know that but right now I need the logo for my website and I won't be doing the website on 72dpi

I think I found a solution, I'll post it in a few mins...
