You could accomplish this using a "cut-out effect". I am familiar how to
do this w/ PSP, but none of the above.

Here is a short tut for a PS cut-out effect for letters:

I imagine you could incorporate this for working w/ an image instead
(depending on what the logo looks like). Other than that, if the logo is
online, send a url and let others take a gander at the image, which
might turn out some resolutions.
