Promoting Jmac's Arcade

OK, so I wanna hold myself to my earlier promise to promote Jmac's Arcade upon publication of episode 4. I am not sure how to go about this. Any ideas?

I started to kick around the production of a very short (<= 20-second) promo but I am skeptical of how effective it would be on other podcasts, since I'm assuming most of them would be audio-only. Not that I can't make an audio version too, but meh.

Hm, and now that I think of it, I am quite hesitant to stick other podcasts' promos onto the JA episodes, since I want to keep them very short and entirely self-contained. So promo-trading deals with other podcasts may just not work at all.

Anyway, I'd like to hear any other promotion idears y'all might have.

Maybe I just need to get more snuggly with the podcasting community, of which I suppose I am by definition a member, but to which I've put very little time or effort in reaching out.

It's just a bit... plain. Functional. Given the subject of the podcast I'd expect a bit more in the way of retro-themed graphics, for example. Something to make it stand out. Wouldn't have to be much... I'm out of practice but I could try to knock together a concept to give you some idea what I'm talking about.

Mmyes. I have a nifty logo idea in mind, actually, which will be the detail of a future post.

If you wanted to make a mock-up I'd humbly ponder it, but either way your suggestion is grokked.
