Photoshop CC seems good

Gimp Definitely, Buying photoshop just to create a logo is kindof stupid.

 

You can pay professionals who'll make better ones with your intructions and inspirations. Just make sure they're really professionals and using Illustrator instead of photoshop.

I have gimp but I don't know how to utilise it, any tutorials? And with CC I don't have much spare cash.

I learned Gimp by using it a lot, not by any tutorials so not sure what to recommend.

How much of a beginner are you? Maybe I can give some tips.
