• Google: free logo maker generator
  Heaps of sites offering free logo generation - find the one you like - some allow more manipulation of colours and fonts than others. Generally pay if you want to use the logo ($20-$60). Price often comes down if you leave the logo sitting in the finished box or leave having finished a logo - take a screen dump before you attempt this though - I got one for $5.
