The logo currently on the [[Wikimedia Pennsylvania]] (either on pa-us or on meta), however we are probably going to need to change this to a new logo (dunno why, but someone suggested it, /me looks accusatively at SB_Johnny).

The logo in the corner will be changed to the Wikimedia Pennsylvania logo once we make it the right size and convert it to PNG.
What logo is this?
My mistake. I read "the Wikimedia Pennsylvania logo" to imply there already was one.

Well, there is one actually, but it's just the WM logo with "Wikimedia Pennsylvania" beneath it.
My suggestion was to do something with more local flavor, like some derivative of a hex sign (a form of folk art that PA is somewhat famous for). We're also the state where you're most likely to see an actual barnstar on a barn, so that might be something to incorporate as well.

I ask that this discussion be moved to the Pretzel Stand, so that everyone including those who are not subscribed to the mailing list can comment. It is not fair to other members, who, after a logo is picked, go, "zOMG! Where was this discussion? How come I was never informed of this?"

Actually, I find it very fair. ;) All members are welcome to contribute to these discussions and are encouraged to subscribe the to mailing list. Furthermore, the archives are public, so we they can follow the discussions and we can point them out easily.
However, I understand how you would want this to take place on-wiki and I agree that this is a pretty good alternate course of action. :)

We do have a mailing list for a reason, and it is a valid medium for communication, discussion, and decision-making. For that matter, more unique members have participated in this mailing list then have posted on the website yet. I'm sure that's a situation that's going to change eventually.
Having a discussion in either place is fine, and I would recommend that most new discussions get cross-posted to both places. There are, after all, some members who have better things to do then check their watch list on our website every day, but if an email shows up in their inbox they aren't going to ignore it. --~~~~
