Quick answers
Short on time?
The three things people ask most.
- Best source
- A PNG at 500–2000 px with flat colours. Avoid JPEG if you can.
- Colour count
- As many as the artwork really has — usually 2 to 8 for a logo. Fewer is cleaner.
- Photos
- Come out posterised. Great for stencils, wrong for "upscaling".
