I didn't even think about that. Will people recognize mediawiki from
the sunflower?

Thanks for the feedback about the text. I use the free and open
- I like how the small letters of the font
are at an angle similar to the gears. But I am open for suggestions.

I like it. My one suggestion is to fix the kerning on
"pywikibot" -- the
letters are spaced too far apart and make the overall logo too stretched out
horizontally. I suspect with tighter kerning the entire image could fit
into a square aspect ratio, which is typically what you want for logos.
What font did you use?

Hi!
I have been already talking on the IRC about an update to the current
Pywikibot logo and would like to also announce it here to gather some
feedback.
The reason for the proposal is mostly to make the project a little
more recognizable and to also communicate that the project and the
community around it is fun and also accessible to people that have a
high technological barrier.
The current logo is here:

It uses yellow and blue that are used by the original Python logo:

I also looked at this logo and thought it looked quite nice, but I
think that removing the gear is loosing a lot of the uniqueness of
[1].
After some talks on the IRC I made this version, which I think would
work really well on stickers and t-shirts as well, which could be
distributed at workshops:

The logo uses the WMF colors and some variants that also use the green are
here:

I also think it is good to leave the colors more or less open to adapt
them according to taste or event theme. So I would mostly like to
propose that we change the shape of the logo slightly and include the
text to maximize the recognizability.
Would be very nice to get more feedback or a simple disagree/agree reply.
