Any help appreciated

Hello- I have a design that I created and modified several times with vaious programs and use for my company letterhead and business cards.
I sent the file out- saved to .eps as requested, to get new job signs made and the company informed me that the "image resolution is to low"
and
"We would need it in the vector format that the logo and text was created in."
Any ideas???
Thanks
Roy

Yes, but I suppose you could ask some of my fantasy football clients if you
wish. All of those logos are created initially at 100x100 pixels as that is
what they pay for, and only later would they come back to me to ask for caps
and shirts. I don't sell caps and shirts anymore since my supplier was
bought out and the larger company decided small runs were not profitable.
But the technique has come in handy many times when a client required the
image at a later date that was larger than their original project.
I will say that it is easy, doesn't require any special software other than
what I normally use to create my cartoons: Illustrator, Photoshop and
Streamline. It requires the use of layers in Photoshop.
I cannot take an image supplied by someone else and do it, so the technique
does have it's limitations.
I believe anyone reasonably proficient in Photoshop can figure out the
technique if they think about it a bit and work the way I do:

So you're asking people to believe this can be done, without providing
any information that would let us evaluate whether or not what you say
is true?

Not so fast there, tacit.
Some time back, a lot of my fantasy football logo clients were asking for
high-res versions of the low-res artwork I created for them to be imprinted
on shirts and caps.
So I developed a way to take my 100x100 pixel, 72 dpi cartoons, (without
redrawing them and with only a small effort), turn it into a 12"x12" 300 dpi
version perfectly suitable for t-shirts, caps, business cards, letterheads,
whatever.
It takes foresight and planning, but it can be done.
But it's my trade secret. :-))

Yes. You need to start over from scratch; the file you have now is
worthless. But first, you should probably get up to speed on the
difference between "vector" and "raster" graphics.
There are two ways to do graphics in a computer" "vector" and "raster."
Raster graphics are made up of little squares of color, called "pixels."
A raster graphic has a resolution. You can not, with any means and by
any program, increase the resolution of a raster graphics image without
losing quality; you can not make detail that is not already there.
A "vector" graphic is not made of pixels. It's made of mathematical
descriptions of shapes and lines. You can take a vector graphic that is
the size of a postage stamp and enlarge it to any size you want--you can
make it fill a billboard if you want--and it will not lose any quality.
Programs like Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Microsoft Paint, and so on, are
not vector programs. They are raster programs (though Photoshop has some
limited vector capabilities). If you create a logo in a program like
Photoshop, you have made a mistake, and sooner or later you will find
that you have to start over and re-make it from scratch.
Things like logos should be made in vector programs. Adobe Illustrator
and Macromedia Freehand (now owned by Adobe) are vector programs.
You need to get a copy of Illustrator and redo your logo.
Sorry...

It sounds like you created the artwork in Photoshop EPS which is not the EPS
format that the print shop was requesting. They want something created by
Illustrator that can be scaled without loss of quality.
You're probably going to have to bite the bullet and recreate it using
Illustrator.
