I'm not sure that starting by the logo is the best to make progress on a visual identity. There's a high probability of long controversial discussions…

I see, this kind of move is always controversial. I think this root design is nice, but is not really a logo, it's more like an illustration based on the current logo.
you are right. maybe you can modify the current logo and make it look a little more graphical and abstract, less like a drawing of an actual onion from a biology textbook for children? if one can still recognize the onion maybe the move wouldn’t be too controversial. i think a more stylized logo would definitely help make Tor look like the serious tool that it is and not like some likeable, but amateurish hobbyists project. cheers thomas
