hex sticker needed
I like the simplicity of the pepper, although I was also thinking that a spreadsheet getting some salt/ pepper shaken onto it might convey the idea a little better
The salt+pepper-shaker direction seems right...but that fiery pepper is nice & eye-catching...
(alternatively, a spreadsheet on fire? sending the wrong message? :)
fiery pepper over a spreadsheet?

first attempt
Nice! π
Did you use hexSticker btw?
yup! https://github.com/ropenscilabs/dataspice/tree/master/inst/hex
I was wondering whether it would look more unique (not sure it should) with say green polka dots (or more salt like dots) in the border? Cf https://github.com/forwards/tasks/issues/3#issuecomment-392333105
Or the white backgrround could be made transparent and superimposed on a grid that'd look like a spreadsheet?

These are awesome! I do love the color, simplicity and obvious connotation of the chili pepper. I do also really like the salt-shaker analogy; I think it makes it clearer that this is "something small and simple you add on top of the data" rather than the suggestion that the data is "hot/spicy/exciting". Wondering if the readr hex provides inspiration for a simple depiction of tabular data? Not sure how to combine chili + salt-shaker...

I couldn't resist...

π I love it even as a vegetarian. π Was just wondering about copyright in such a case?
Yeah copyright might be tricky. But if folks like it, I can contact the photographer and ask. π€·ββοΈ
Ha! Thatβs amazing
