Xara Logo with transparent background

Hi Everybody,

Can someone direct me to a downloadable Xara logo with a transparent background?

(I've ben trying to edit some downloadable images, but my edits are pretty poor)

Here's one, albeit small: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/F...o-blue-PNG.png

Paul, vector!

For amusement:
Old style is part of this: Attachment 133353
Even older: Attachment 133354 (created way back - https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...458#post645458 ).

SVGs:

Try your hand at making your own as a vector form a good PNG.

That's hilarious... for a company so focused on selling software for branding, I didn't realise that they'd changed their logo. It looks nothing like the icon for Xara Designer Pro+

it's the xara cloud logo - xara cloud is how xara the company brand themselves; designer pro+ is just a design tool now, I don't think they even refer to it as 'flagship' any more on their site...

Not sure if this is what you want, but it's vector.

Or if you want the old one in vector format:

Thanks Everyone,

Just what I needed.

One question for Acorn though:

How would I make my own as a vector form (from?) a good PNG.
( I miss the old turotials from the Xara X¹ days)

Paul, I was suggesting a good PNG as it would have fewer anti-aliases edges that force you to guess where the boundaries are.

In the Xara graphic and text, I would work out how many unique shapes were required. The graphic is a black circle and a rounded-corner box used three times. One split blue & white, one white and one black alongside the white one.

In the lettering, the X is a given from the graphic nothing Xara made the gap far wider.
I would use a Line with Round Cap with three control point to form the R.
I would then Clone this and adjust to form the A.
Finally, convert Line to Shape and group everything.

I tried this and found Xara made the stump of the X slightly thinner and its crossing is not 90deg when I compared mine to the SVG.
I also found the PNG was not the same aspect ratio, thickness or colour as the SVG.

Ideally, you need to work with the Brand Guide but even that is limited.
