First you have to have a logo before you can improve it 🙂 As I revisit establishing a logo for the Mike Tech Show, I came across this link on How to Improve Your Logo on digg. Many listeners sent in some great art work a while ago. I am looking over all submissions and still soliciting new ones. I hope to have a logo for the website and podcast for my one year anniversary which is only a few weeks away. Each of my podcasts will contain a sample logo within the MP3 file. Please send me your feedback.
