Re: Side Art fixing - Hang On (upright)

for something like this.. unless you can get the art off the side your best
bet is a 3 mega pixel or higher camera and photoshop (or similar program)

take close up photos ofe the artwork in sections. then piece them together
likea puzzle in photoshop.
from there you can either clean them up in photoshop or i'd recommend
tracing them in illustrator, etc.

photoshop does have vector ability that can be exported to illustrator later
if you choose.

since it's unlikely your photos will be 1:1 scale at a high enough
resolution, you'll need to create a vector illustration of it so when
resizing larger, you wont get pixellation.

hope that helps. if you want to take some photos and send them over, i can
probably bang that side out really quick since there's no illustration on
it.. just text.
