The new bloggervenue.com logo!
Having your site reviewed may point you into someting that should be improved. I got my blog reviewed a few months ago by several bloggers and they all said that one of the weakest elements of my blog was brandability. This blog lacked a good logo to show off. The previous one was awful. I was aware of this even before the reviews were made, but they made me look for alternatives.
I like to use photoshop and play with it. You can count me to do some flyers and posters with photoshop, but don’t ask me to do logos. I really suck at that. So a way to get around this was to look for someone that would design me a logo. I searched a bit, and all offers i found were to much expensive for my budget. I was almost giving up when i found standoutblogger that got himself a new logo for his blog. I liked the new logo a lot. He got his logo on a contest in Digitalpoint forum and he managed to get this logo for $20 only!
I was thinking on doing the same thing but first i contacted the winner of the contest to see what were his fees. I checked his porfolio and liked what i have seen, and since his fees were small and quality was very impressive i ordered a logo from him.
His nick is Im3d and you can see his portfolio here.
The process of ordering was easy. He works fast an efficiently. I just told him what i wanted in the logo and he did the rest.
What i asked him was to blend B and V in a logo. It needed to be unique. shiny and recognizable and be compatible with the blog theme. After a few modifications the result is what you can see now. I really like the logo, it is something that i can call my own and it may help brand the blog. Make it recognizable.

After this initial investment, i bought some ads to help spread the new logo and make it seen, the overall results will come in about a month.
So tell me your thoughts about the new logo.
