High Quality MiSTer Logo File

Unread post by SDLearmonth »

Does anyone have a high quality image file of the MiSTer logo, the one that displays on the home screen?
I'm building a bartop arcade cab using my MiSTer inside and I'd like to order a custom decal for the marquee. 8-)
Looking for a high-res image or even better a vector file that can be scaled up.
Cheers

Javier Rodas posted this Illustrator vectorisation of the logo over on the MiSTer Facebook page, it's the only vector version I know of.

I asked this same question a few days ago. There's no actual font, but rather a mod of one.

I'm not absolutely certain, but I feel like I can make a case that the logo is based on Open Sans Extra Bold Italic. If it's based on another font, Open Sans sure is a decent open source substitute for whatever was originally used.

https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Open+ ... ext=MiSTer

I created a document that overlaid the font on the SVG version posted on this thread. The top version in gray is a literal overlay, where only the kerning has been applied. From there, I started rounding edges and pulling curves until it became a more reasonable approximation.
