As much as I like, appreciate, and applaud the artwork presented, I
have to say I don't think it's a great use of ChiPy's limited funds to
spend on artwork. At least in the Python world, I can't think of any
groups who even have an *old* mascot/logo let alone a new one, and
outside of one group I'm not aware of any that have greater than $0
associated with their group.

That's not to say I don't think the artist could be rewarded, but I'd
have to know more about the money behind the scenes and an estimate of
the cost before throwing a real number out.
