It would be nice to have a logo for the website. I'm personally horribly unskilled at such things...

I'm not great at this but here's a rough version of what I created:

  • This is a (flat) image of a space telescope observing some stars. The telescope corresponds to the data visualization tool.
  • The stars are colored by constellations. This corresponds to the data visualization tool pulling out previously unseen relationships.
  • It shows the big dipper, cancer and the summer triangle (of which stars vega and altair are members)

I like the astronomy theme, but then again I would :smile: 馃尃

I think the final logo should be a bit less busy but this is a great start!

I am having a new designer start right now and will have them look at this.

Two options for logos. Trying to evoke "Alt" visually while also communicating visualization.

First with overlapping bars:

And a flatter version:

frame 4

@domoritz this visual language could be adapted for Vega-Lite too:

frame 6

I would do some color variation though.

That's really nice! I think I prefer the overlapping one
