 |
|
Hello,
I need to create a bitmap logo for website and this is the only source I have to work with:
Since I have close to zero experience with vector graphics, I obviously cannot redraw it with Illustrator or any similar software. I've already tried with some simplified software specialized for vectors graphics and converters, but without any decent luck.
Could you give me any suggestions or ideas on how to proceed?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Well my first question would be is it a bitmap or a vector you need to create. As those are totally different.(link)
Can't really retrace the letters from what I see at the moment as it's either too pixelated or too distorted from the perspective.
On the archs there's a simple method to recreate them (not going into the rectangle as that should be too hard  )
Draw an ellipse of any size using the ellipse tool (shape tool). When done, don't do anything else before you hit Ctrl+Alt+T or Cmd+Opt+T on a Mac. Now make it a bit smaller (hold Shift+Alt when resizing to make the rotating easier) and rotate in such a way till the small path just touches or overlaps the original ellipse by a tiny bit. Now take the Path selection tool and click the smaller ellipse. At the top of your screen set combine shapes to substract front shape. Click with the Patch Selection tool anywhere on the screen but the shapes to deselect them. Now hit Ctrl+T and transform till your final liking.
The NC initials, it's rather difficult to exactly recreate them from what you have right there, no way to trace that properly and the form is not any that's easy to freeball with the pentool. Most easy way is to take a similar font, type NC, convert to shape and start editing from there.
Or did I get you wrong and did you want us to do it for you?

I've just received new photo with much better quality:
I will try to make a bitmap version of logo in Photoshop (and hopefully get a decent result), but it would be really nice to have vectorized version as well. If I'm not asking too much, could someone do that for me? "NAKUPOVALNI CENTER" text is not needed, you may ignore it.
Thanks again for help. |

Do you need the NC part as well?
