Jonathan Hsieh commented on HBASE-4920:
---------------------------------------
I feel the "cyber" look and the hard edges of the wordmark doesn't quite fit
with the roundness of the image but like the general idea (maybe a "shaper"
style for the same idea).

> Or we could have an Orca (Big!, Fast!, Killer!, and in a poem that Marcy from
