Comment (by brade):

 Personally I like the thinner lines in the "A" line for the browser and
 onionsite graphics (as compared to the "C" line).  In particular, the fat
 lines of the browser window makes the toolbar seem disproportionately
 large.

 I'm concerned that using a cloud graphic may confuse users about what the
 Tor Network is.  I think many users will think of a cloud (on the
 Internet) as the place where they store images and files rather than the
 network.  We should also be careful about reusing the Tor Browser icon to
 represent Network or Onionsite. Ticket #23486 includes some other ideas
 for icons, although our design ideas have evolved since that ticket was
 updated.

 For "onion site" vs "onionsite", I'm ok with either term. I am curious how
 "website" localizes.  If we are coining a new term in English
 ("onionsite") will our translators be able to create an equivalent term in
 their language?  I assume they can handle it, but maybe we should check
 with emmapeel.
