[SciPy-Dev] scipy.org logo original?

Tue Apr 30 09:10:00 EDT 2019

Thanks Stefan & Ilhan!

Scikit-image has the right idea I think with a separate branding repo.
Shall we create one for SciPy as well?

Ilhan, that looks really good! Would you be able to make a web-sized image
and add it to scipy-sphinx-theme? The current image is a 2.4kb gif, I think
it can be larger but as small as possible while still looking good would be
nice. Because it gets downloaded millions of times a month, and also
directly adds to the size of the numpy and scipy sdists.

Cheers,
Ralf
