I really like the ialh on the keyboard, very clever! But I definitely prefer the version with DSS beside the keyboard, rather than spelled out top and bottom.

@mrparker909 , yes, I like this one the most too. However, we will need both horizontal and vertical layout for different purposes. Please let me know if you can figure out an alternative arrangement!

I must also say a few words in defense of spelling out "data science studio". I think we need a version of the avatar that spells it out, so we can use it in the context where people might not know what "DSS" stand for. Secondly, the font is part of the design. Notice that the font face is Consolas, a monospace, default font of RStudio.

I like version 4 for use on the website, and version 5 for use on posters and other physical media (where the web address is very handy to display)
