Looking For Art: "Darkmagic's Arcade" pic

A few years back when Mike/Gabe was making his garage arcade, which was dubbed "Darkmagic's" , there was also an image Mike/Gabe made of the "sign" for the arcade.
I had it as my desktop's wallpaper for some time, but, as they do, my computer died, and many of my fave pics with it.

I was unsure of which forum to post in, but hope that I can get some help either, tracking this down, or getting more info on how to obtain the image/art elsewise.

Here is a terrible image of said desktop for reference:

Any leads, links, or input appreciated.
THANKS!

    Appreciated. Tried a social media campaign (FB, twitter, tagged him there) a month or two back (committed to this art, lol), no results. As I'm the biggest PA fan among my social circles, came here, to the biggest circle of PA fans, lo. Here's hoping!

    If you still have the hard drive from that computer, you can probably dig out the photos/images out using your current computer.

    Would try the HD recovery, but re-formatted a year+ ago before replacing with a SSD that's in my rig now. I've tried digging through all my files & my external HD. No dice.

    Ah. I thought you just moved on and hadn't touched the hard drive. In that case....good luck I guess?

    No twitter luck either.

    I guess this is a cautionary tale to remind us to back up rare images to google drive :(

    @h4773r

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    Haha, the sad truth is that NOW (after the initial loss) I work for a backup company so, this bad boy will have many clones across drives & clouds, oh yes. lol
