There has been no real discussions but also not many propositions so far. Please be aware though that changing the Tor logo is probably not going to happen. It's part of the current Tor brand, and getting a consensus is going to be terribly hard. I've seen many positive reactions to the “root design” iteration that has been designed by Leiah.

Leiah is also has it on her project list to work on a sooner than later home page redesign to get things moving. From a 7/25/14 email on Tor branding projects: *#5 Tor Home Page* - as discussed during the dev meeting the objective is not a complete over of Tor's website. This project will focus on designing our homepage to be more inviting to people who want to donate, promoting more Tor downloads, and to promote some key messages (for example, Invite your friends!. The more people who use Tor, the more secure you are, too."). But if we could get some traction on this that would be great.
