Looks can be deceiving, though.  Notice that the proof is using
anti-aliasing (the logo is grayscale in parts on their image) that cannot
be rendered in the final etching or print.  Depending on the resolution of
the etcher and how they do their dithering, it may look excellent or
really crappy. The AGA "logo" is kinda difficult to reproduce at small
sizes in this regard.  But I'll bet it's a 300 dpi kinda thing and ends up
looking very cool.
