Hopefully of some use to you :)

I've seen these around, they always make me think "knockoff."

OP: Why not make yours an A2000HD, or A2500?

I'll have a go cleaning these up in photoshop if you want.

Just opened it up. It'd be nice if I had a high res version to work from but I think I can trace it anyway. Does anyone know what the fonts are?

JimS' copy is much clearer and actually level. You want that one or ZeBeeDee's? I'll probably do both.

I took these pics with my digital camera of my A2000 case, if they are of any help:

That first one looks like a winner to me, Tajmaster.

Wow guys thanks for all this help :) I really appriciate it.

I'm waiting for this A2000 i just won on ebay and it looks like cr*p, so this sticker will be a really important part for restoring it.

Are you sure the sticker isn't there, under the imitation marble Con-tact paper?  I can't see a reason to remove it.

There's also the somewhat less-common "beige" A2000 sticker. I've seen grey ones made out of the same material (like what Taj posted), and also the cheap paper badges in grey, like the first posted image.

Here's (http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee190/o-D-o/a2kbadge.jpg) a beige one.

That's because I put the badge directly on the scanner, then processed it a bit in Photoshop to even out the background & lettering. ;-)

Yeah, it does kinda look amateurish compared to the later badges... maybe they were trying to deempahasize the "Commodore" name in those later ones. ;-)  I evened out the grey background, but the actual badge has some kind of sparklely texture in it, looks like it was applied over the printing. Don't know how you'd replicate that in the real world. ;-)
I think I'd just design my own with simply "Amiga" on it, maybe a boing... but I'm not a purist. ;-)  Probably the biggest problem I'd have would be printing it to scale. I don't have a color printer, so I would go to the local drug store and use their instant photo printer... they aren't very consistant ;-)

If I had the choice, mine would say "video toaster".
