Thanks Faroo6.
I had got as far as creating a new layer and then using the selection tool and shift key to create a perfect circle. But I had a hard time getting the color I wanted to fill in the circle - it just came out black, regardless of my fiddling with the palette on the upper right side of the program screen (with the 3 sliders).

I'm beginning to appreciate though, that to create the ring, it will be composed of two complete circles with the smaller one placed on a new layer on top of the larger circle - and I bet that the smaller circle will be colored white to give the ring the 'hollow' or 'see through' effect.

I'm also assuming that I can use the default image size and then when I'm done, resize the completed logo to 150x150 px.
But what size should the larger circle be? - and the smaller circle for that matter?

Too bad these logos can't be made in AutoCAD. I've been using that program almost everyday for 15 years!
