People seem to have opinions on how to make this better!

Discuss here. :)

The newest version has a lot more going on. It's not as simplistic as the first version.

I've chatted a bit with @jovo about this fig. Personally, I find it a bit cluttered and torn between two levels of content: It is in some ways very low level, but in other ways quite superficial. I think as the initial figure in our paper/that we turn to as our organization, we want to define the primary message we wish to convey. If that message is along the lines of "here is an ecosystem which ties together tools to help you store, explore, process, and analyze your data", then the first one was much more succinct. If the goal is a lower level description of "here are all the pieces in the puzzle that do awesome things for you and here are some of the ones we built with or on them that enable more awesome things" then perhaps we go with the second, but clean it up to make that point more clear.

tl;dr: what is the take home message from this figure?

I love both figures. The simple one is nice to get our point across as eye candy and I definitely see it for advertising. But too simple to convey much actual info. The complicated one is good for detail, but we'd need to modify to tie in all the services and might be better for the website. I vote for a hybrid. Meaning high level but more detail than store explore analyze. Or maybe a multipanel fig with both and some tweaks?

i recommend you guys look at some nature/nature methods papers that you like, and check out their "fig0" and report back on things that you like/dislike.
