The image here use a variant of the old MDN Logo. Should we update it, or leave it there as a memento?

I don't see any point in changing it. @wbamberg what do you think?

I think we probably ought to change it. Organizations don't much like to see old logos out there (which in retrospect is a good reason for avoiding logos in examples in the first place) and we have had similar issues with people using old Firefox logos in mdn/content.

I don't think it is a high priority though.

How about this? Blue "M" logo doesn't really fit. mdn-info

I love that branding, but it's even older isn't it? IMO if we are going to change it we should change it to something completely different, so not subject to the whims of anyone's marketing department.

It is older, but still in use on the main page. Maybe lets just remove middle region?

That is...surprising. I thought Mozilla had replaced that branding a long time ago.

Maybe lets just remove middle region?

I think that would look a bit weird. Maybe make each section a triangle extending to the centre? Then the text in each section should be offset from the edge more. And we could also replace "Graphics" with "HTTP".

@NiedziolkaMichal I think what Will was suggesting is something like this:

export

Maybe we can use this instead?
