Straight lines and a simple dither scale up nicely. Â If I wasn't sticking so close to the original, it would be pretty easy to get it looking even nicer with a better yellow-to-red fade rather than a plain strip of orange.
Mistake left for authenticity: the left side of the O is missing one red pixel from the "orange" section. Â It looks more obvious in the larger versions, I think, as the other yellow pixels bordering it get filled with bits of red, leaving a more obvious square gap. Â Another thing that would be easy to fix if you're just looking for a good image.

The Q is the one I'm least sure about here. Â I usually treat Qs like Os with a line through them, but usually I can look at a game's original Q and see things like how wide that line should be. Â Here it all smooshes together, so there was a bit of guesswork as to how exactly to make that line. Â Also, the original only had any gap at the lower right side. Â Replicating that exactly would've left a larger version of smooshed, so I made it a gap that narrows down as it goes further left. Â End result isn't beautiful, but hey.

Modified October 11, 2011. Â Blunted some of the pointier bits that were present in the Peat Peat version.
