Thanks, MI!
I almost said that's above my comfort level, but then I realized that most of the letters are there: e, r, o, s.
I'd just have to make an H and an apostrophe (').
Maybe someday... ;)
You can make the "H" by flipping, then inverting the "L" - for the cross part of the H, crop the "crossing" of the T.

I forgot I actually made it a personal project to edit all QFG SCI games and change every reference of "Quest for Glory" to "Hero's Quest". I did pretty much everything in all first four games EXCEPT for that QFG2 ending preview screen. However, the letters I changed for the QFG2 title are the same lettering style as that preview screen so it would just involve change the palette. My "H" doesn't look that great though.

That's a great attempt on the H, MI ! You did an excellent job of getting the color gradient down perfectly.

For the left stem of my 'H', I ended up using the 't' from 'Quest' after flipping it horizontally. For the right stem, I added the stem of the 'l' in 'Glory' after flipping it vertically and horizontally. The ends of the crossbar were also taken from the 't', and I filled in the middle of the crossbar from scratch.

The apostrophe (') was adapted from the lower half of the 'r' stem in 'Glory'.

MusicallyInspired, if you want my H or ('), just shoot me a PM; I have the "Hero's" lettering as a PNG with an empty background element -- suitable for copy and pasting.

*EDIT -- I kerned the 's' so it's closer to the 'o' and the apostrophe (').

I probably need to squeeze the 's' a wee bit closer to the apostrophe... tighten it up a bit.

*EDIT -- I kerned the 's' so it's closer to the 'o' and the apostrophe (') in the four Hero's Quest pictures above.

Well, enough of my nonsense -- these are the last ones, I promise. (Only 'cause there were no more QFG games...)

...And here's everyone favorite QFG game, Dragonfire!

Gimme an 'i' ! Why? Because I already had all of the other letters to spell Dragonfire between "Shadows of Darkness" and my "Wages of War", as well as my Roman numeral V. Just had to make a quick 'i' to complete it.

Was battling insomnia and this talk of "making" the words Hero's Quest (granted wouldn't fit in the above screens because of the coloring and position) - but ended up making a transparent logo of it from the cover.

Hmm ... how about putting it on a scroll (a la King's Quest 1) and calling it "Hero's Crest"? ;)

(Of course I'm being facetious) ;)
