Update the Polaris logo

[xylar]

I would like to update the Polaris logo. I'm fine to iterate on it but I also know that aesthetic sensibilities will differ.

Here is my first suggestions:

I like that:

• it's woodcut style
• it shows Polaris pretty clearly
• has some subtle color
• is simple enough to be shrunk down to a small icon

@cbegeman, @altheaden, and @sbrus89, you've all contributed quite a bit to the code. Do you have an opinion on this?

[cbegeman]

Thanks for returning to this! I agree that it's important to have something that looks good icon sized. If anything, I would add less detail, e.g., in the number of sky swirls. But I'm also happy for you not to spend additional time honing it.

[sbrus89]

Looks good to me! How did you generate it?

[xylar]

ChatGPT via Dall-E.

Here's another that's simpler but I don't like it as much:

@cbegeman, what do you think?

[xylar]

I tried to improve on this one but it's just getting worse. So I think the other choice is what we should stick with. I really dislike the horizontal lines here but I can't convince Dall-E to make the swirling stars cover the whole sky.

[cbegeman]

I agree. The horizontal lines are weird. We can go with the first one

I really like it! (The first one)
