[Matplotlib-devel] Where can I get "Use viridis" Stickers ?

Hello matplotlib devel, 

First thanks for all the work on Matplotlib 1.5, and future 2.0 this is (and will be) awesome releases. 

As all of you are (hopefully) aware, the various colormaps that have been designed and
shipped in matplotlib 1.5 are awesome, and are now available for many languages and
graphical frameworks. 

Unfortunately, it is still common to come across both numerical and printed versions of posters
in labs and at conferences that uses our dear hated jet colormap. 

I wonder if it would  be possible to design/acquire a number of “use viridis” and “jet kills” stickers, 
that I could stick here and there for inapropriate use of rainbow-like colormaps, as well as on my laptop. 

Please find attached an idea of what it could look like (though I’m not good at design)
I would be happy to get the same for Inferno, magma & plasma of course,
and I think that a distribution of these stickers at the same time as Matplotlib 2.0
would be a nice communication stunt. 

Thanks, 
--
