As per the discussion last night resized and sent to you.

As for the fonts the RSR letters are the "bookman oldstyle family" (commercial)

performance is "Calligri Extra expanded Bold Italic" (commercial)

and the writing on the bottom is close to gulim but not :)

As per converstion.. I'm happy for now to have the "noise" in the background until you can find the right fonts. No rush bud.. only when you have spare time.

Many thanks :cool:

The fonts still need to be resized and placed, here is one using free fonts that are very similar to the commercial ones.

As for free time I don't go back to work untill the 2nd

EDIT: hows this one?

Didn't have too, RSR was quite happy with the Eurostyle font (Subaru uses it) fot the lettering at the base of the banner.
