-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hey,
The Tor Project is 90% goodwill powered so why go for a corporate brand mentality?
More or less any good logo is stylized and abstract or, depending on it’s history, abstracted away from a natural motive. That has nothing to do with corporate brand mentality. It's a question of visual catchyness, memorizability, recognizablity - like every slogan has to be short and memorable. Advertising slogans are short and memorable too, but that doesn’t make any political slogan “corporate brand”-ish.
I am actually a big fan of the Tor logo on Jacobs business card: http://62.141.42.149/tpo/card1.jpg http://62.141.42.149/tpo/card2.jpg I have no idea where it comes from, but I think that one would both stay close to the original logo and be a lot more sleek / stylized and abstract. I'm not saying that we should use exactly this logo, but I just wanted to throw it out there to show that you can be both traditional AND sleek at the same time.
