    A partner has requested an EPS file of my websites logo.

    How can I get an EPS file?

    I have the original (huge size) PSD, as well as gif, jpg and png formats.

    How can I convert to EPS?

    Programs I have include Photoshop CS2 and Fireworks.

    Thanks :)

    EPS is encapsulated post script. It is a file structure that is accepted through many different programs. Good way to keep a high res file through PS, AI, and InD

    One of the advantages of vector images is that they can be enlarged without loss of quality.

    Yup, thats why I love Vectors. I use Illustrator and I can zoom in 10000x and it wont loose resolution.

    EPS are indeed for vectors.

    You should always store/save your designer work (samples) in EPS format. That's because, you can always give the client that design in any size he/she needs. EPS adds more flexibility in design/graphic sizes.

    If you website logo not a vector logo, then there's no way to convert it to EPS unless you hire a designer like me :) If you website logo is simple, I can do it for free.
