Can you do this in xara xtreme, rather than illustrator because I find illustrator quite difficult to understand. (the pen tool???? live trace?? etc
Regards,jinz
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Jinz,
The immediate options as I see them are:
Hand trace it with the shape editor tool.
Trace it with the Bitmap trace tool.
Pay for Vectormagic to give you a vector trace.
Personally I would go with the hand trace method - I think it gives better results. If you know what the fonts are you can just recreate them or you can hand trace the letters.
Since you want this done in Xara, why did you post it in the Illustrator forum?????
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Thanks but, how do you do all of this in illustrator then, could you please show me a few screenshots?
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Don't know ...... I'm a poor boy ...... Can't afford to buy Illustrator.
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Did this with the Shape Editor Tool and an Arial font, done fairly quickly & crudely but could be improved upon by spending more time on it.

Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Womag, does this answer jinzs question or does it show that you were able to do what jinz would like to do?
How about some step by step guides on how you achieved your result and in particular which software, as you haven't said if you used Xtreme or Illustrator for your example (though I suspect Xtreme as you menioned 'Shape Editor Tool')
I think jinz wants to know how to do this with Adobe Illustrator - can you help?

Sledger,
Actually, I was trying out Keith's suggestion and trying the "hand trace it with the shape editor tool" option to see how hard it would be.
I do not have Adobe Illustrator, but enjoy using Xara and have upgraded to XX V4 and thought this would be a good test.
The logo should be able to be redone and improved by Jinz with Xara since Jinz originally asked if it could be done with Xara Xtreme.
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Perhaps someone else may respond to jinz' later question regarding Illustrator (Albacore ?)
Xtreme is certainly faster/easier/more fun to use. Illustrator is a bewildering muddle :(
Are you happy to run through the steps you took with XaraXtreme? :)

OH MY GOD EXCELLENT, GUYS I now use xara xtreme v4.
Did you cut and select with the shape editor tool? & also the arial font???
didi you write the letters at the top of the logo with the arial font. Maate also It would be great if you saved that image as a .eps or .ai file for me. The I will post the image on this wonderful forum & show you how big It can really go?
I have a bundesliga emblem size 5000 by 5000, I think or maybe even bigger!!! The font is pot on mate, could you show me a few screenshots on how you make this logo please?
P.S PLESE REPLY TO MY QUESTIONS!!!
EXCELLENT!!!
Also does anybody know someone who accepts vector requests? (JUST ASKING)
Much appreciated to all...
Regards,jinz
Re: Need help redrawing this logo!!!
Jinz, you have been on this forum long enough to know that we don't do freebie requests. I'm afraid that if you want this logo drawn, you will have to draw it yourself. We can help if you have problems with some steps, but with XX4 you have all the necessary tools if not the experience. The only way to get the experience is use the tools!
