don't have it installed at the minute, but will have when i get my new pc.
in the meantime, try a program called vector magic, as it can sometimes give pretty ok results depending on what you want

I use Illustrator, what exactly are you wanting? Guidance or for someone to take a logo and "vectorize" it?

Yeh ive tried that before but when i resize it it still loses quality :/
Thanks though :),If it still isnt done would you mind helping me with it ?,Its a realy simple logo pretty much just made out of circles but i just cant use ai as im so used to photoshop.

if the result is ok when you use wector magic, save the file from it as an eps or ai file.
then open it in photoshop whatever size you need it and it should be ok.
if you can fire up a copy of what you want done, and then the size you want it at after i'll try and sort it out asap for you

If the logo is simple you can probably get away with using "Live Trace", if not send me the .psd or w/e you have of it and i'll change it to a vector for you and screenshot it so you can see how i did it.

Re did it from scratch so you can easily edit anything still, hope its fine, if not just ask what you want changing.

*EDIT AGAIN* Should note, the one you did in PSD wasnt exactly the most professional I've ever seen ha, the colours didn't fit equally all the way around the inside but you'll see they do in the vector :)

Also oops as I didn't actually notice the guy above me had already done it. Just to let you know though about you saying 6k pixels with no loss of quality, that's the whole point in a vector, it's worked out mathematically (fonts are vectors) and therefore never pixelate.
