Album artwork, commonly seen in many desktop MP3 players and now in iPods that display photos, is a nice option for podcasters who want to brand a podcast with a logo. This kind of branding is becoming more and more common in podcasting, especially with the iTunes Music Store becoming podcast friendly. What is the best way to make sure iTubnes (and for that matter, the iTunes Music Store's Podcast Catalog) will recognize your artwork? Just make sure that your logo fits the following parameters:
300 x 300 pixels, both in wdith and height
8-bit channel, RGB mode
JPEG (.jpg) format
Keep in mind that when you compress your work, overcompression can distort and deteriorate its visual quality. Some JPEG setting work in number 1-10 or 0-100. As a rule, if you compress your logos no more than 5/50, your artwork should retain visual quality.
