Create a Vector Logo
Step 1: Create a new image
Create a new image. In the menu click File > New (Ctrl+N). The image size is 1024 x 768 pixels.
Step 2: Create a layer to draw a background
Create a background layer. You don't need to create a background layer, you can also use a white background instead. In the menu click Tools > Background. In the Preview Window customize your background and click OK. Press Ctrl+A to select the entire canvas. Press the right mouse button and click 'Apply as new Vector Layer'. Now you have created your first layer.
Step 3: Create a second layer
Create a second layer. In this example we create three beziers and a black circle to draw the Playboy logo. In the menu click Tools > Bezier. In the Main Window add points to the bezier (use the Insert key) and customize the lines and bezier curves. Choose a solid black color to draw the logo outline. Use the Color and Texture Tool to create a solid white background. In the Preview Window of the Color and Texture Tool set the Forecolor to white. Press OK. In the Properties Panel set the line width to 10 pixels. Press the right mouse button and click 'Apply as new Vector Layer'. Now you have created your second layer.
Step 4: Complete the logo outline
Create two more layers. They are similar to the previous layer and part of the logo outline.
Step 5: Create the eye
Create a solid black eye. In the menu click Tools > Shape. In the Preview Window choose a black circle and click OK. Move the selection to the right position. Press the right mouse button and click 'Apply as new Vector Layer'.
Step 6: Save your image
Save your image in Pop Art Studio (.pas) file format. If you choose to save the image in a different file format you will flatten the image and lose all the layer information.
