Shaloooooom!

Bit of a cheeky request. I am currently working on a design logo for some hoodies for my local motorbike group. I've made a rough design for the logo however i need someone a little photoshop savy to help me out. I need the back ground removing and the icon tidied up so it doesn't pixelise when i copy it over for printing on hoodies.
Is there anyone who wouldn't mind sparing a moment to help out a fellow biker? Surprised Surprised
I have attached my scruffy noob design (please dont laugh)

It's a PNG so it supports an alpha channel. The background grid *should* represent the alpha channel, and any decent printer worth their salt would realise this, and the background won't appear.

That said, if it's ever been screenshotted that will just be an image of the representation of the alpha channel, and so you're out of luck.

Remember, when sending off something to print, it's best to have the largest possible version of said logo as enlarging WILL leave pixelisation.

I'm not a photoshop guy so I won't be able to do anything with it, but you obviously got the PNG from somewhere... so maybe go back to the source, get the largest version you can with an alpha channel?

Hi MarJay,

Appreciate the response. I found the 'circle' on google which unfortunately came with the background which i was unable to remove. Also because of the quality i'm unable to enlarge the image.
I am below novice when it comes to this sort of thing hense asking someones help i will also need it colouring white Surprised

You're better off finding a high res version of it or better still a vector version of that image. If you've grabbed something off Google Images then it's probably not going to print well.
