Can someone replicate this on a larger scale? I dont have any decent GFX pish installed on this laptop just now :/
Even an idea of that font would be a start.
Needing it for some stickers for the cars, but the orig sample is too small to use/scale up

Looks like the bmp has been traced essentially creating a vector which is then upscaled
If the settings were changed, the trace would keep far more detail.

AK, are you looking to have the stickers printed or are you going to get decals cut by a sign writer? If it's the latter and you can wait a couple of days then I'll be able to sort something out for you...

cheers but the detail in the circle is a bit I know the orig is pish/small.
I'll have a go at knocking something up.
The stickers would pref be cut vinyl, about 400mm x 200mm of there abouts (x6)

it could have easily been enlarged just by blowing the original image up then tracing around it (either using Fireworks auto trace + tweaking, or doing it by hand). Then save it as a vector so you can do what you want with it afterwards. Only problem with tracing is that it takes fecking forever, especially if you do it by hand

Looks like he did it using the default Live Trace settings on Illustrator.
