This tutorial will teach you how to make the google logo. The final result is shown below.
1. Create a new document; 300px x 120px.
2. Use the Horizontal Type Tool and type Google onto your document. This tutorial uses the font catull, but if you dont have it on your computer, you can use Times New Roman which also works fine, and looks very similar.
3. Now we need to add colours to Google. Highlight each letter, and change its colour as stated below.
