Anyone interested in converting this rough logo into a vector art illustration thingy, wish I could be more specific but I just want it so that I can recreate it at any resolution very crisp and clean.

maybe even have a few version of it with those snazzy shinny effects applied to it.

I can send you the font used here.



I cant pay much but if you are interested let me know
thanks


Edit: I guess convert is the wrong term, recreate would be more accurate.

Just a mockup you can keep for free.

I don't know which format you can process so try these two:

Wow, thank you lo-tekk !

can you recommend an easy to use illustrator for things like this ?

Inkscape is pretty good, and free:

I am using Xara Xtreme http://www.xara.com/ but Inkscape is free, so you can try first.

I'd definitely recommend trying a free one first -- vector graphics are a very different animal from bitmap graphics, and it takes a pretty different skillset to create good-looking vector images. :-?

InkScape gets my vote too, it's the only real vector drawing program I've found, plus it's open source and free. It can also save/print as PostScript with vectors, which printers print correctly. All other programs which use vectors, like PowerPoint, don't create vector PostScript, but replace it with huge bitmaps, so I get a 20GB file when printing to a 2 meter paper, instead of a 20KB file with vector PS from InkScape.
