The JupyterLab logo

[SylvainCorlay]

The JupyterLab logo currently in use for the GitHub organization profile picture does not respect the Jupyter brand guidelines.

I suggest we use the regular Jupyter logo there and other places where the JupyterLab logo may still be in use.

This would also affect JupyterLab Desktop, which uses this logo as its icon — pinging @mbektas

Thanks for bringing this up, Sylvain. The Jupyter logo sounds more appropriate to me, too.

I guess that a vote of the lab council could validate the change of the GitHub avatar, unless someone thinks they can take it upon themselves to change it.

cc @jupyterlab/jupyterlab-council for awareness. Please reply here if anyone in the council has any concern about this change.

Otherwise we should proceed with this and use the official Jupyter logo.

For reference the official logo is used on https://try.jupyter.org to try JupyterLab:

Here is the logo we can use: https://github.com/jupyter/design/blob/main/logos/Square%20Logo/squarelogo-greytext-orangebody-greymoons/squarelogo-greytext-orangebody-greymoons.svg

+1 from me to replace the logo with the Jupyter logo. In the long term, it would be nice if we had a consistent design language for adding annotations to the Jupyter logo for various subprojects, for example like how jupyterhub adds "hub" to the Jupyter logo (not saying we should do exactly what jupyterhub did, though)

Right. This seems to be discussed a bit in jupyter/design#65.

Also the JupyterLab docs have a custom "JupyterLab" logo (although it seems to be an official Jupyter logo and "lab" appended at the end):

Closing as the logo has now been updated:

Thanks all!

I updated JupyterLab Desktop icons as well. https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab-desktop/pull/695/files
