New description:

 We've been failing with naming Tor's censorship circumvention tech for a
 while ('Pluggable Transports', 'obfsproxy', 'obfs3', 'obfs2',
 'flashproxy'...).

 We know that our users are getting better at learning these terms, but we
 should try to help them. I think establishing a visual identity for PTs
 through a logo, might help.

 This way, we can put the same logo in the PT/obfsproxy homepage, and in
 BridgeDB, and in TBB (in the step of the wizard where you have to add your
 bridges), and people will learn that when they see that logo it's PT-
 related.

 I'd currently use the obfsproxy logo:
 [[Image(https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/attachment/ticket/5111/logo%20shaded.svg)]]
 except if someone tells me it's a terrible idea (I admit it's more silly
 than confidence inspiring, but I think it gets the point across). Any
 other suggestions are welcome.

 If people think that this is a reasonable idea, I will create tickets for
 the BridgeDB and TBB mods.
