How do I recreate this logo in Illustrator? I tried to add an outline and it looked alright but i need it to be transparent. Is there any way to expand the letter and use pathfinder somehow? I tried to google a solution but i couldn't find anything relevant...

Why don't you just outline the entire thing with the pen tool?

this. In GIMP you can create a path with splines and such, and then create a selection from that path. Do something like that, invert the selection, and press delete.
In the Appearance panel (under Window>Appearance) you should be able to be able to change the opacity of both the path and the fill of the object.
If it's a rasterized image you can use the Image Trace tool then click Expand.
fuck taking an hour retracing
1) object > rasterize
2) object > image trace > make & expand
After that refine your edges. Touch up image in photoshop beforehand if you want better trace results

>an hour
That'd take like 2 to 3 minutes tops to recreate with the pen tool, newbie.

Hey, do you mean the stroke around the F? You can expand the stroke in the expand option then use path finder to cut it away from the circle shape. If you need me to take screenshots and go step by step let me know.

Oh god, those rugged edges
This is why I don't like active tracing, it's so cluttered you can never really use it professionally.

Probably refine the path of the text a bit, then redo the circle yourself from scratch.

it was a 20 second fix.
