 Hi! a few visual metaphor patterns emerged from my exploration and I
 developed two of them:

 1 - Onions. From illustrations to abstract views, from left side
 perspective to front view all the onions you can imagine had been used to
 talk about Tor. I tried a minimal, geometric but still recognizable onion
 here. It works ok on small sizes, and we can use it with and without
 leaves, which makes everything easier when we need squared radio icons to
 use.

 2 - Connected World. A current sliced world is the Tor Browser icon. Let's
 gets real here: I don't know why we have a sliced world, but I feel how
 people can relate it with Tor Browser. With this scenario, I tried a
 version with three slices (for the three nodes that people know they need
 to make a successful tor connection) and a simple circle as a world.

 During this process, I found a lot of cool Tor Browser icon redesigns
 around the web.
 Here is my pick:

 https://dribbble.com/shots/1537947-Tor-for-Mac-Icon-Replacement
 https://dribbble.com/shots/2212264-Tor-Project
 https://dribbble.com/shots/1107341-Tor-Project

 Could we include those concepts as a part of this process?
