CNET Editors' review
This program's title speaks volumes about its purpose: The Logo Creator includes many templates for developing logos or modifying existing ones. However, the tool's time-consuming download and complicated functionality are hard to slog through.First, the big 34MB installation takes a while to load, since it includes an enormous amount of PNG and JPEG files. Then you have to set aside more time to actually launch the program. In our tests, we managed to do that only after one hour of desperate attempts. However, designing logo has been made easier thanks to the "element setter".
Fortunately, your troubles won't all be for naught--the highly varied and customizable features can help you build a unique logo. Then, you can save the log as a template for re-use. However, the program is still too simple for professional logo makers, not to mention entirely too frustrating for those who wish to generate a logo quickly and easily.

"NO customer support/BBB Notified"
Version: The Logo Creator 5.0
Pros
When it worked - it worked rather well.
Cons
Has not been updated to work with Lion (OSX). The author keeps posting on his web site that a newer version is coming out. It's been a year since the Developer's copy of Lion has been out and nothing has been released. Post and private emails to him go unreeled, or just not read at all.
A few complaint by a few of us have been filed with the BBB offices and we are demanding a full refund.
