Another BASICALLY BRIGHT IDEA!
Never underestimate the power of what a BasicTemplates "Logo Template" can do for you! Our logo templates are designed at 300 dpi for print quality on small print jobs such as letterhead, business cards, invitations, and envelopes. However, did you know they are functional for other purposes too?

Here's a few ideas that might help spark your creative right-brain:

• web page logos: resize our logos and reduce their resolution for web page compatibility
• web page accents: some of our logos can be resized small enough to product a page accent
• splash page images: use them for your website's splash page entry page
• watermarks: reduce their size and transparency for your website's watermark
• revisions: rearrange, add, or delete the layers to change the logo into a new logo
• combine: combine layers from logo to logo to create a new logo

GREAT NEWS! We now have 50 Logo Templates with MANY MORE on the way!

BASICALLY BRIGHT IDEAS!
Need ideas on how to creatively use our growing collection of 10,550 3-D Gel Web Elements, Shapes and coordinating backgrounds? Okay ... here are just a few of potentially *millions* of possibilities (all using the graphics software program of your choice):

1. Use them straight from the PSD file for your website's design elements.
2. Use one color gel button as a standard button and another color as it's rollover.
3. Combine several elements from different PSDs to create a new element, ie. resize a gel shape and add it to a gel button as an accent, overlay a gel button onto a decorative ornamental shape for a filligree effect.
4. Combine several elements with complimentary colors to create a new web design.
5. Swap-out the graphics in Templates #861 thru 865 to create a different color scheme for your own needs.
6. Overlay a semi-transparent image (or photo) from your own collection onto the gel elements.
7. Rotate the elements to create a different orientation.
8. Mirror the elements to change the light source and bevel effect.
9. Add a drop shadow to create a deeper 3-D effect.
10. Use the 3-D shapes as a web logo or an accent to your existing logo.
11. Use the decorative ornamental shapes to create tiled backgrounds.
12. 3-D shapes can be used as web page accents.
