Hello,

I have a logo that was created several years ago and I can't re-create
it. You can see the logo/name at www.usernomics.com in the upper left
corner that says USERNOMICS.

I want to change the yellow/orange trim color to white. But I want to
retain everything else. I only have the image as a .gif and I can't
manipulate it. I also don't know what font was used.

Does anyone have an idea of how this can be re-created?

Thanks a lot,

Bob

Place cursor on logo, right click COPY.
Open Photoshop, CTRL N.
Paste into new document.

Proceed from there.

You could use the Color Replacer. Use the first eyedropper to select
the first color, and the second eyedropper to add colors to be
replaced by white. To get white, just slide all the "Replacement"
sliders to the right. To get more or less replacement, slide the
"Fuzziness" slider back and forth. Make sure "Preview" is selected if
you want to see the results as they are applied.

This is pretty straightforward using the replace colour tool.

using that method, it took me about 30 seconds to produce this.

Do you think you could possibly be a bit more unfull?
No, I thought not.
If you have nothing constructive or full to add, then why don't you keep
your smart ass mouth shut.

Your response was entirely unful yet you wasted everyone's time with
lambasting another idiot for doing exactly what you've done. What makes
you think you're more special, fuckstain?

while replace color will work you will not get a nice sharp edged letter and
the image will look deteriorated. On a gif those options will be greyed out
so you must change mode to RGB or other first.


If you plan to use this logo in any other document or larger sizes for
future I suggest re-doing it
YOU need to identify the font FIRST
(whatdafont.com)

file new (make it in RGB mode) use decent resolution like 300-400 in case
you need it bigger later for print etc
fill with 50% gray

type the text, (open character palette)

use kerning etc for spacing the letters so close
put the text layer on 0% fill
it will look invisible don't worry
click the little f at bottom of layer palette
choose bevel -emboss
tick the down box
pillow emboss? or other to get the look of impression
then use stroke
change it to white, change thickness

DONE
