Tasks:

1. Take a low resolution image, enlarge it while maintaining clarity.
2. Adjust placement of starburst in the middle to ensure proper centering / alignment.
3. Adjust text to fit the curve of the circle properly.

1. Upscaled repeatedly until shapes were salvagable. Image was very pixelated though, so the upscale wasn't pretty.
2. Desaturated, flattened, simplified. Adjusted image to only use pure white and black.
3. Attempted to vector the main image, only was able to barely get half of it in a clean vector. Example below

Mirrored this to re-assembled logo's shape.

The starburst was off-center, and the upscale ruined all but one side of it as well. Using the process above, saved half of it, mirrored, cleaned up the details and centered properly. In-process example below.

Text was unusable, had to find the font using font tools like 'What's That Font', matched to the font " Colonna "

Re-typed text, vectored, match to the curve of the logo's shape.

I now have the fully vectored version of this which can be scaled to any size, with crystal clear resolution. If you do plan to print t-shirts, you'll want that one, and I can easily send it to you!

Also, I work for one of the largest custom t-shirt manufacturers in the country, so if you'd like help setting up a mockup / pricing, I'd be happy to privately help with that, and offer a friends / family discount and my 5+ years experience with the printing, if you want!

I am currently at a Artiest block and can't come up with anything creative. Any ideas?

Thanks for posting!

I'm sadly much better at up-scaling / clarifying images than designing, but, I'll take a shot at it for sure.

Did you have anything in mind for this cover, beyond the logo? Colors, shape, size? When you say 'cover' do you mean a Facebook cover banner, or something else perhaps?

Just finished a small personal project I thought I'd post. Really wanted a version of the creed for one of my monitors at work, just as a nice visual reminder throughout the day.

Wonderful wallpaper Cayce! Can I download and use it?
If I can make a request: I would really like a minimalistic wallpaper with the "yet" version of the code on it. No preferences about colours or other things, feel free to let the art flow!

In truth I truely am not sure I just know I want the logo to be the main focus. Perhaps some black silhouette edgings or....something. I just tossed it here figuring another artiest brain storming might yeild some ideas haha.

I am looking more along the lines of a Book Cover. I have all of the lessons and such in a google docs and wanted to have a book cover for it to start with. Right now It just has the logo, title and author name Rather....Plain....

That's still a nice bit of direction! I'll work on a mockup soon for it, the original image is rather low-resolution so I may have to work up a new version. Do you have a larger version of it / a master file?

Of course you can! Everything I post is meant to be used, shared, and enjoyed (hopefully).

Sure thing! Let me know if this works.

Sadly no. Thats as big as I made it when I created the image.
