It depends on what you want to do. Trickboards (the kind most people think about when they hear the word skateboard) is for tricks. Longboards are for cruising around and getting to places. And there are many inbetween. As for brands, some are better for different things, but there is no clear "best" brand.

most of the time there is no design on the bottom of a skimboard
the best skateboard supplier is a tight race between on deck and west49
Ripstick is the best.
CCS is the very best site for making your own skateboard.
If one wants original artwork for the board, any good local artist should be able to do the job. For actual board design a skateboard designer such as Original Skateboards can be contacted to design and manufacturer an original skateboard.

I like going to my local zumiez store and getting a premium package for my skateboard which includes bearings, trucks, wheels, griptape, and of course a nice board.
well there isn't a best skateboard but if you are talking about rareness i would go for plan b or tony hawk ones
There is no best skateboarding company.
Trust me.. There really isn't too much of which skateboard brand is the best. One person might tell you that an "element" skateboard is the best there is.. And later, another person would tell you that its the worst D: If your going to get your first skateboard, look for the one that you think has the best graphics. Later on, you'll figure out which brand feels the best under your feet!
