     What version of the Matplotlib logo would you want featured on the shop? I was thinking it might be nice to use one that actually says "Matplotlib," but the only file I have like that is very long and narrow and the font is sort of odd.
     Do you want us to come up with something on your behalf? Is just the circle logo okay?
