Lots of discussion about poor experience with logo design. Fiverr has a lot of other services and I agree that it can be difficult to separate out the wheat from the chaff. As an anecdotal example of a positive experience though, I used Fiverr a few months ago to hire various musicians singing Happy Birthday in a video as a birthday present for my wife. Was the quality a bit amateurish? Sure. Did my wife care? No. Quite the opposite, she loved it.

I think if people expect to get professional quality work from Fiverr, overall they'll be disappointed. However, for fun, personal projects, where production value is not prized, it's fantastic and I think this niche is where they can start to grow.

A bit offtopic: Great idea :) . It's really hard to find customized birthday presents (it was actually a startup idea that was floating around at several startup meetings I attended).
