		<description>Hi Richelo

I assumed when I first heard the name that you must be a Korean speaker (Are you? / 임니가). 

This is a polite form of a question using the (primary) copula verb (i.e. &quot;to be&quot; in English).  It can mean any of the following (and more, depending on what/who is being talked about/referred to in a given context):

- Are you?
- Is s/he?
- Are they? 
- Is it? 

So I really thought it was some kind of play on words from a Korean speaker. Something like &quot;Is it mail? Awwh-ho-ho, it&#039;s MUCH more than THAT, my friend!&quot;

Or something along those lines. 

I&#039;ve yet to try your service, but I keep hearing good things about it. Frank has raved about it numerous times, for the record. And he&#039;s a straight-up geezer whom I&#039;m inclined to listen to.

All the best,
TheNightOwl</description>

		<description>Thanks for sharing the logic behind this.  Great story. Styles and fonts and gizmos come and go.  The really significant change in this logo is the wording.  Changing &#039;evolved&#039; to &#039;solved&#039; conveys confidence that professional help to a variety of problems may be available here.  
  
For me, the jigsaw puzzle graphic on your home page is also pure gold - and now it reinforces the &#039;internet marketing solved&#039; in the logo.   
  
Bottom line - looks like a keeper to me.

		<description>Hey Richelo,

Great logo.  You could easily take the i and enclosing semi-circle and carry that forward into any new logo design should you wish to do that.

It&#039;s great to see that you&#039;re taking the steps needed to grow your business.  I&#039;m going through a similar phase at the moment, so you can be sure I&#039;ll be keeping an eye on what you&#039;re doing.

And, hey, I have some new scripts coming out soon you might want a play with.  ;-)

		<description>@Miguel: Thank you for your honest opinion. I really do appreciate your honest view.

I also agree with you wholeheartedly!

Here&#039;s the thing though..... Companies like Coke, Nike, Virgin and many others have been around for ages, have a HUGE marketing/branding budget. Their logos can be &quot;bland&quot; and still stick in the consumers mind, purely because of the constant barrage of all kinds of advertising.

Yes, I would have liked to steer away from the whole Web 2.0 style logo, and, the 1st version WAS NON-Web 2.0. The problem is that Web 2.0 style is prevalent NOW, and especially the younger generation DOES judge a company on how &quot;hip&quot; they are.

Because of this, the design was kind of driven by what the general consumer looks for right now in overall look and feel of a company.

I am sure there will be more versions of the logo going forward, and hopefully they will NOT have to be flashy, swooshy, and all the other stuff it kind of has to be right now.

Hopefully by the time it comes to that, Imnica will have grown into the size company that can afford a LARGE marketing/branding budget, and push out a logo that can, and will stand the test of time.

Again Miguel, I really do appreciate, and value your comments and your insights.

Kind Regards,
