I do stuff like this all the time, send me an email with picture, object you want it on. STL file for object, JPG or PNG for pic.

Sounds like HobbyMaker3D has you covered, but all you have to do is convert a graphic (JPG or PNG) to SVG: then import the SVG to your project.

Just watched a couple video’s on Onshape. It seems the only way it can deal with an imported object is it needs to be a dwg or dxf file. Then you can adjust things. If you want to just emboss or engrave image onto part, jpg or png works. Hope this helps. Online free converters will give you a dwg or dxf files from jpg or png files.

I do not know much about onshape, but it may mean the file is too large, or you have maxed out the limits for a free license (if that is what you have). This is something for Onshape to tell you.

I tried it and it wouldnt work still. I was able to do most of the logo myself but there’s 2 letter that I can do on onshape and I dont have anything else to try it on.

If that is just a normal image file, I do not think Onshape will let you edit the actual lines in it. It basically treats the picture as a reference inside the sketch. You can position and scale it, then trace what you need with proper sketch geometry. Same idea with casino pages really, a flashy graphic is just surface unless the useful bits behind it are actually interactive. On [https://tropical-casino.com/](https://tropical-casino.com/) Tropical Casino, I would care more about whether the slot filters, game info and promo sections are easy to work with than how polished the banner looks. For the logo itself, converting it to SVG or DXF first is probably the cleaner route.
