PineAPPL needs a logo

[cschwan]

I was looking to the issues and I noticed this one-year-old one.

I would suggest something like this for the concept:

(the svg is not supported by GitHub and thus attached pineappl.zip, with an alternative layout)

The font is random, colors are almost random, and even the layout: the idea I wanted to propose was just the gear with the slips on top :)
(if you wish the slips are taken from here and there is also the full pineapple outline)

[cschwan]

Thanks for looking into that. The first pineapple from your last link looks actually quite nice, I like that the body looks like a grid!

[alecandido]

That's another chance of course :)

@cschwan let's do this - can you upload your reference image and maybe describe any idea of layout you have?

[felixhekhorn]

If only PineAPPL had a logo so we could put that in talks ...

[cschwan]

Will you give a talk soon?

[alecandido]

I guess he was referring to DIS, in which he's going to present EKO and yadism, and thus he will mention the combination (so PineAPPL).

[cschwan]

I see and yes, having a Logo would be useful ...

[felixhekhorn]

I guess he was referring to DIS

Indeed. Now, until then nothing will happen - after that let me point out what I already said: #21 (comment)

[felixhekhorn]

just saying that @alecandido will give another talk without a logo and I, myself, planning to give a dedicated talk about the theory pipeline (and so pineappl at it's center) at the EIC meeting at the beginning of August ...

practical suggestions: why don't we accept @alecandido suggestion above ? 🙃

[cschwan]

Alessandro's suggestion is a bit too generic to me, let me work on a logo. For the time being I think we should draw the attention to the updated website, what do you think?

[alecandido]

The former suggestion is rather old, and not my favorite.

I'd like to make at least a try also with a Pine, rather than a Pineapple. I'm still a bit affectionate to the idea of the theory pineline 🥲

@cschwan any progress on this by chance?
