Love Vector Images
Saturday, May 10th, 2008
It is with great pleasure that I announce that I’ve finally gotten around to recreating The Drama Society’s logo in glorious vector format, meaning that we can scale it up indefinitely for great victory!
I took the original, small and somewhat low quality JPEG we had (Since the original creator of the logo either didn’t leave us a high quality version, or it has become misplaced somewhere) and then ramped up the scale, despeckled, sharpened it and converted it to PNG in The GIMP. I then had a marginally better quality version to load into Inkscape and use the ‘trace bitmap’ feature on. Sadly this left behind some very wobbly edges due to scaling, so it was out with the path editing tool and some heavy-handed deleting of spline points. I think the result is quite good.
