I created a new logo for my business. You can check it out by going to my blog at http://www.deannaspencer.com/learnsmallbusiness/?p=365
You can let me know what you think by leaving a comment here or on the blog. For some reason I couldn't post the flickr code here. I appreciate your feedback.

Oh that's creative! Can you get it in a higher resolution? It looks a little pixelated.

I absolutely love the color but have to agree with April on the pixelation issue - it looks like you might have had a small image that you sized up quite a bit? Is there a bigger version you can start with and size down (to maintain image quality)?

And - just in case you feel like getting extra creative - what about a specialized font for some of all of your text? There are LOTS of free font sites out there to peruse

I'm not really sure if I can do that. I'm pretty limited when it comes to graphic design software as that is really not my area of expertise. What would I need to do to get it in a higher resolution? Thanks for the input.

Tess, I do have a bigger version. I'm just not really sure how to resize it without it becoming pixelated.

I actually looked at the large size, but it looks even more pixelated than the smaller one. I guess I need to tinker with it a little bit.

You could always download a free trial version of Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro and use it long enough to make your logo. Or you could try this program http://www.gimp.org/ which I've heard is just as good and its free.

If you can't get it figured out, let me know and I can try it out on my graphics program.

Yes, it's a little blurry. But I do like the color. Good job!

I still can't figure out how to make it big without it getting more pixelated.
The latest version is on my blog here:

I've got to take a break. It's time to eat.

That's better

Sorry I can't help you with the pixelation problem but I like the logo. It's different.
