They would like to continue to use this logo but there's no vector file of it and it would be nice to be able to have it in different sizes. Can anyone help in making this a vector? THANKS!!

I've got FP and an older version of PhotoShop which i'm still learning <sigh> Let me know how much better this logo size is and if it's salvageable. I'm sure through 'trial & error' I could try to find out what the name of the font is? Any assistance would be immensely appreciated. Cheers, Sheldon.

A BIG thanks!! I know my buddy will be happy that we're helping him salvage what he can to start his plan to rebuild. Cheers, Sheldon. (in reply to d a v e)
