New JuliaStats logo?

[ararslan]

I think it would be nice if JuliaStats could have a distinguishing logo, just as JuliaDB and others do, rather than the same logo as JuliaLang. Here's my proposal, poorly made in the course of about 5 minutes in an MS Paint clone:

It's just the Julia dots with the normal distribution overlaid. Not super exciting but I figured that the normal distribution is pretty iconic and could work well in this scenario.

Thoughts? I'm certainly no graphic designer; this is just an idea. (Though if people do like this, I'd request that someone with decent image software make one that looks less sloppy, especially if we need transparency.)

Good idea, but the curve should be more like a normal distribution, and we should have a SVG version.

Something like this might be cool too:

Isnt that a bit too much Freudian innuendo¿ ^^

[ararslan]

😖 Maybe to ameliorate that we could move the means of the red and purple distributions away from the center and decrease their variances a bit?

[tbreloff]

@mschauer I learned a lot about you today!

@ararslan Feel free to play with that bit of code and come up with something else!

[ararslan]

@tbreloff I actually can't seen to get Plots to work under 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5. But I'm fine with whatever, it was just a suggestion. 😄

[tbreloff]

@ararslan Do you mind opening a Plots issue or chatting in gitter with more details?

Modification of Tom's image.

[kmsquire]

I actually like @ararslan's original idea better.

The colors are a bit too flashy...

Cool!

[andreasnoack]

I like this one. Maybe without the axes?

Yes there should be noise.

[tbreloff]

I like it... similar to the one I made for JuliaML

[ararslan]

I like this one as well. But is it too similar to Tom's image for JuliaML?
