Oddbean new post about login | logout I may be in the minority here, but I don't like the trend of having episode art that's different for every podcast episode — at least not when the images have no recognizable connection to the brand. Maybe it's just the podcast player I use, but now, when I'm looking at the list of new episodes from shows I subscribe to, I can't even tell which show they're from. They've lost all branding. #podcasting
@bb052609 No no, I agree completely. I know when I publish episodes, I individualise cover art for episodes in the web view, but keep it constant in the RSS feed, for exactly this reason. So people finding an episode by google on the show website, or who subscribed by email or something, get to see the covert art (usually a nice photo of the person I'm interviewing). But in your podcasting app, where my episodes are mixed up with all your other subscriptions, you see the show logo.
