Many people have also asked for hex stickers for the individual R packages. @ermeel or anyone else interested in designing?
rstanarm and bayesplot? Any graphical suggestions, to start with?
BTW: any consensus on how to use the Stan hex sticker?
Yeah those two definitely (brms already has one).
@breckbaldwin Anything further on this?
(Desperately hoping that these will be available in Helsinkiā¦)
Me too. Itās on my todo list (or actually on the one of my creative partner).
Unfortunately even for the Stan one Iām still awaiting the OK to publish them outside this forum. @jonah any news on this?
For a first draft of a bayeslot hex sticker, see http://discourse.mc-stan.org/t/hex-sticker-for-bayesplot/4616?u=ermeel
Just a suggestion here (to both @ermeel and NumFOCUS): the trajectory bleeding off the sides is meant to imply that it continues forward and backward in timeāhere that would mean extending the white paths to the border. or just enlarging and cropping at the border.
The trajectory needs to bleed off the sides (behind the border) to imply that it continues forward and backward in time.
Take that as a suggestionāthis
Sorry I donāt really get what you try to say. Also the message seems to be incomplete at the end.
Sorry for the incompleteness. That was fat fingering, not something missing.
What needs to happen is that the white arms need to continue right up to (ābleed intoā) the dark red hexagonal border. There shouldnāt be a gap of light red between the white and the edge. The goal is to imply that itās a trajectory that continues forward and backward in time.
The technical term I was using was ābleedā, though here I meant bleeding off the light red background, not over the dark red border. The Wikipediaās helpful hereāeven the example is relevant:
Another potential proposal for the base Stan hex sticker:
Iāve taken slight liberties with the logo to extend it off into a white border, as in the round sticker.
(The dotted yellow line is not part of the design ā itās a cutting marker for the printer. This is using the template that Diginate provide for hex stickers.)
I also didnāt know if there was an official font ā Iāve used Gill Sans Std here, but thatās easy to change.

I think we have a viable sticker. Thanks @josswright

My pleasure!
Hereās a PDF version of that: stan_edge.pdf (4.3 KB).
Iāve had a few hex stickers printed at Diginate, and theyāve always been very good. They have a blog post about it here that links to the custom-shaped sticker service: http://news.diginate.com/hex-laptop-stickers/

To be honest, I really donāt understand the popularity of hexagonal stickers, but if people really want stickers in that shape, then Iām glad we provide them!
