Hi,
The mentioned pencil logo has a white background, which may go well with same white background. But,
- how to change such unwanted spaces to transparent?
- what is the best format for sharing a logo file, which needs to be reused elsewhere in same way or for further editing) ?

However as already mentioned it is always best to start off with a transparent background when creating logos (in vector).

Courses Plus Student 12,531 PointsThanks jag. I was looking on to the logo from video, which has white background. As you told, we can start off with a transparent bg.
