Working with a logo from this pic - suggestions
Admittedly I’m graphic challenged, having working with websites almost exclusively. I have a photo from a logo. Eventually I’d like to make this a png which I can use throughout a site. I’m wondering about my options.
- I could redraw the logo. It appears rather simple.
- I could use some kind of trace function.
- I could take the photo, get rid of the background with selective color and make that a png.
Here’s the pic. Suggestions welcome.
Thanks - Bill

I would redraw it - you could draw round; you could use shapes and combine shapes
a logo needs to have clean outlines - the other two ways might well be fiddly and time consuming to get right

Thanks @handrawn. I was thinking if the same thing. I had thought about finding a matching rounded font to save a little time as well.

The font is VAG Roundhand. I recreated the logo. No charge. :)

Bill, tired with Fonts - nothing 100% ther.
Made a rounded corner box and twisted it gnarly to create the middle effort.
Just colour it Black.

Awesome. So very kind. And thank you @acorn as well. I deal with many logos from different foundations for non profits. It’s a veritable soup of challenges. Some understand png and jpeg, others look at you like you just grew a second head.
This particular logo is for a rancher. I could send a side of beef to @gwpriester, any shipping overseas to @acorn might be a little high.

Only if your rancher grows Corned Beef. :-)

Very helpful Gary.
@Bill - If there is a lot of repetition of lettering that a font is ideal.
My fallback would be using Shapes as there is usually a symmetry somewhere.
Hand tracing after that.
Finally, bitmap trace.
If I can get a vector for a logo then I am happy. Fonts are vector but a high overhead for a just few glyphs, so I would usually convert to shapes.
